INTRODUCTION
1.1
Command Console Language
(CCL)
The Command Console Language is used to control
functions of the System4 multiplexer system through
the use of its integral RS-232C port. A personal
computer (dumb terminal) may be used to
communicate with the System4 video controller.
Various system functions may be controlled including:
video switching, mode display, actions, alarms, and
receiver/driver functions.
Once on-line, the CCL command prompt should
appear from the connected system. If the prompt is not
present, pressing
ENTER
(or sending carriage return
character 0D hex) should bring the prompt up. The
prompt will look as follows:
LTC26XX>
All commands should be entered only when this
prompt is present unless otherwise specified. Typically,
a single command per line is entered, but multiple
commands may be entered if desired. Multiple
commands on the same line must be separated using
a semicolon (;) and can not exceed a maximum of 126
characters (including spaces). All command lines must
be followed by a carriage return character (0D hex).
Command syntax is very important. CCL commands
are very SPACE sensitive and should be entered
exactly as indicated. All text commands contain a
space between the text and the associated data values
(unless indicated otherwise). A space is also inserted
between multiple data values within a command (e.g.
a list of camera numbers).
NOTE: This manual is intended for use by qualified
programmers who are familiar with the use and
terminology of the LTC 2600 Series System4Video
Multiplexers. This manual is organized so that
information on individual commands can be located
quickly and easily. Commands are organized by type
in sections (see the Table of Contents), with each
section providing a summary table and an alphabetical
listing of commands. Definitions, syntax, and examples
are provided for each command. Please refer to the
Operator's Manual provided with the LTC 2600 Series
Multiplexer for complete details on the system
functions relating to the CCL commands described
in this manual.

CCL Communication Protocol
Port Configuration
As the System4 multiplexer is shipped from the factory,
the CONSOLE port communication protocols are set
according to the following figures. These settings can be
changed by using the appropriate general command as
listed in this manual (SET RS-232).
Baud Rate = 9600
Stop Bits = 1
Data Bits = 8
Parity = none
The 9-pin CONSOLE port is located on the rear panel of
the multiplexer and has pinouts as indicated below. If the
handshake feature is enabled but not desired, the signals can
be defeated by placing a jumper across pins 4 and 5 of the
CONSOLE port mating connector. If a jumper is added,
remove any other cable connections on these two pins.
