Host-to-Switcher Instructions

The switcher accepts SIS commands through the RS-232 ports and Ethernet port.

SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command field. They do not

require any special characters to begin or end the command character sequence.

Each switcher response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return and a line

feed (CR/LF =

]

), which signals the end of the response character string. A string

is one or more characters.

Switcher-Initiated Messages

When a local event such as a front panel operation occurs, the switcher responds

by sending a message to the host. The switcher-initiated messages are listed below

(underlined).

, time]

The switcher initiates the copyright message when it is first powered on or when

connection via Internet protocol (IP) is established. “Vx.xx“ is the firmware version

number. “68-796-01“ is the switcher’s part number. “date/time“ is the date and time

of the connection and is only reported when the connection is made via the LAN

port.

Password:

The switcher initiates the password message immediately after the copyright

message when the controlling system is connected using TCP/IP or Telnet and the

switcher is password protected. This message means that the switcher requires an

administrator or user level password before it will perform the commands entered

via this link. The switcher repeats the password message response for every entry

other than a valid password until a valid password is entered.
