CMD5 (35h) — Set (Tie) Connection
The Host tells the Matrix to connect the specified output (Out#) to the specified
input (Inp#) in those planes specified by PlnMap0. (Plane maps are explained
earlier in this section.)
Format: CMD5, PlnMap1, PlnMap0, Out#, Inp#, Cks1, Cks2, EOT
Example: 35h, 80h, 87h, 83h, 85h, Cks1, Cks2, 04h
This example will connect output #3 to input #5 in RGB planes.
PlnMap1 is not used at this time, therefore it will be 80h.
PlnMap0 = 87h (bits 0, 1 & 2 = 1, 1, 1 for the Red, Green and Blue
planes) See Plane Map on previous page.
Out# = 83h = Output #3
Inp# = 85h = Input #5
Response: CMD5, Erc, Cks1, Cks2, EOT
CMD7 (37h) — Set (Tie) All Connections
The Host tells the Matrix to set connections for any (or all) planes in the Matrix.
The planes must be specified by board address (BdAd) in sequential order. A
preset number is assigned for saving this configuration. The configuration may
be loaded later by selecting the preset number.
Format: CMD7, Preset, {(BdAd, Inp1, Inp2, ... Inp n, CR), ...}, Cks1, Cks2, EOT
Example: 37h, 82h, 80h, 83h, 83h, 85h, 80h, 80h, 80h, 81h, 81h, 0Dh, 81h...
Cks1, Cks2, 04h
Where:
A) Preset is the number assigned to this configuration (the example uses
preset #2).
Preset numbers can be 1 - 20 (81h - 94h). If the information is to be used as
the current Matrix configuration without saving it as a preset, the number for
this will be zero (80h).
B) (BdAd, Inp1, Inp2, .... Inp n, CR) is a string of bytes for each plane record,
with the following components:
a. BdAd is the board address for the plane (example is 80h = red plane).
b. Inp1 is the input # to connect to output #1. (example ties input #3)
Inp2 is the input # to connect to output #2. (example ties input #3)
c. Inp
n is the input# to connect to the last output. (example ties output #8
to input #1)
d. CR — carriage return (0Dh) terminates the data string for this plane.
C) Another plane record (data string) will follow for the next plane to be
configured — and another, etc. for each plane to be configured.
_______ 1. The plane record has a length determined by the number of outputs (n).
2. Only existing planes are valid.
3. Any, or all, valid planes may be specified in the same command.
4. Planes must be specified in ascending BdAd address order.
(Plane 1 first; plane n last.)
