RS-232 / RS-485 Communication Protocol

NOTES on the above table: 

 

NOTE 1

 - When the master switcher is reset, (e.g. when it is turned on), the reset code is sent to the PC. If this code is sent to 

the switchers, it will reset according to the present power-down settings. 

 

NOTE 2

 - These are bi-directional definitions. That is, if the switcher receives the code, it will perform the instruction; and if 

the instruction is performed (due to a keystroke operation on the front panel), then these codes are sent. For example, if the 

HEX code 

01  

85 

83  

83 

was sent from the PC, then the switcher (machine 3) will switch input 5 to output 3. If the user switched input 1 to output 4 

via the front panel keypad, then the switcher will send HEX codes: 

41 

81 

84 

83 

to the PC. 

When the PC sends one of the commands in this group to the switcher, then, if the instruction is valid, the switcher replies by 

sending to the PC the same four bytes that it was sent (except for the first byte, where the DESTINATION bit is set high).   

 

NOTE 3

 - SETUP # 0 is the present setting. SETUP # 1 and higher are the settings saved in the switcher's memory, (i.e. those 

used for Store and Recall). 

 

NOTE 4

 - The reply to a "REQUEST"  instruction is as follows: the same instruction and  INPUT codes as were sent are 

returned, and the OUTPUT is assigned the value of the requested parameter. The replies to instructions 10 and 11 are as per 

the  definitions  in  instructions  7  and  8  respectively.  For  example,  if  the  present  status  of  machine  number  5  is  breakaway 

setting, then the reply to the HEX code 

0B 

80 

80 

85 

would be HEX codes 

4B 

80 

81 

85 

 

NOTE 5

 – For the OUTPUT byte set as 6, the VIS source is the input selected using the OUTPUT byte. Similarly, for the 

OUTPUT byte set as 7, the VIS source is the output selected using the OUTPUT byte. Note also, that on some machines the 

sync source is not software selectable, but is selected using switches, jumpers, etc!  

 

NOTE  6

  –  If  INPUT  is  set  to  127  for  these  instructions,  then,  if  the  function  is  defined  on  this  machine,  it  replies  with 

OUTPUT=1. If the function is not defined, then the machine replies with OUTPUT=0, or with an error (invalid instruction 

code).  

 

If the INPUT is set to 126 for these instructions, then, if possible, the machine will return the current setting of this function, 

even for the case that the function is not defined. For example, for a video switcher which always switches during the VIS of 

input #1, (and its VIS setting cannot be programmed otherwise), the reply to the HEX code 

0A 

FE 

80 

81 (i.e. request VIS setting, with INPUT set as 126dec)  

would be HEX codes 

4A 

FE 

81 

81 (i.e. VIS setting = 1, which is defined as VIS from input #1). 

 

NOTE 7

 – Setting OUTPUT to 0 will return the VIS source setting as defined in instruction #7. Setting to 1 will return the 

input # or output # of the sync source (for the case where the VIS source is set as 6 or as 7 in instruction #7). Setting to 2 

returns the vertical sync frequency (0 for no input sync, 50 for PAL, 60 for NTSC, 127 for error).  

 

NOTE 8

 - The reply  to the "REQUEST WHETHER  SETUP  IS DEFINED" is  as in TYPE 3 above, except that here the 

OUTPUT is assigned with the value 0 if the setup is not defined; or 1 if it is defined. 

 

NOTE  9

  -  An  error  code  is  returned  to  the  PC  if  an  invalid  instruction  code  was  sent  to  the  switcher,  or  if  a  parameter 

associated with the instruction is out of range (e.g. trying to save to a setup greater than the highest one, or trying to switch an 

input or output greater than the highest one defined). This code is also returned to the PC if an RS-232 instruction is sent 

while the machine is being programmed via the front panel. Reception of this code by the switcher is not valid. 

 

NOTE 10

 – This code is reserved for internal use. 

 

NOTE 11

 – For machines where the video and / or audio gain is programmable. 

 

NOTE 12

 - Under normal conditions, the machine's present status is saved each time a change is made. The "power-down" 

save (auto-save) may be disabled using this code. Note that whenever the machine is turned on, the auto-save function is set. 

 

NOTE 13

 - This is a request to identify the switcher/s in the system. If the OUTPUT is set as 0, and the INPUT is set as 1, 2, 

5 or 7, the machine will send its name. The reply is the decimal value of the INPUT and OUTPUT. For example, for a 2216, 

the reply to the request to send the audio machine name would be (HEX codes): 

 

7D 

96 

90 

81  (i.e.  22dec for 2nd byte, and  16dec for 3rd byte).
