Set all boards to Fade-fade, Slow, without disturbing the current Take delay or black duration:

STX 0A E3 0F 04 01 FF 00 FF 00 FF 00 <checksum>

Set up a custom transition rate of 9:29 on all boards, without disturbing the current type, Take delay or black duration:

STX 0A E3 0F 00 05 09 1D FF 00 FF 00 <checksum>

Set up a 1:00 Fade-cut transition, with a black duration of 0:14, on all boards. This produces and event which fades to
black in 0:08, remains in black for 0:22, then cuts to the new source:

STX 0A E3 0F 02 05 01 00 00 00 00 0E <checksum>

Set up a medium rate mixed transition, with Fade-fade on video, and Cross-fade on audio:

STX 0A E3 01 04 02 FF 00 FF 00 FF 00 <checksum>

STX 0A E3 06 01 02 FF 00 FF 00 FF 00 <checksum>

Set up an audio seque, where all boards are set up to do a Cross-fade, 1:00 in duration, but audio "leads" video by 0:15
(audio from both sources would be mixed in equally before the video would begin mixing. The total time to complete the
transition is 1:00 + 0:15 = 1:15):

STX 0A E3 01 01 05 01 00 00 0F 00 00 <checksum>

STX 0A E3 06 01 05 01 00 00 00 00 00 <checksum>

Request the current transition settings on the Saturn video board:

STX 03 READ E3 01 <checksum>

REPLY: STX 0B IFRE E3 01 04 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 <checksum>
(video board is set to Fade-fade, at Cut rate, 0:00 actual rate)

Request the current transition settings on all boards (only two boards exist in the system):

STX 03 READ E3 0F <checksum>

IFRE E3 01 04 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 (Video: Fade-fade, Cut, 0:00 all else)
IFRE E3 02 03 03 00 0F 00 00 00 00 00 (Audio 1/2: Cut-fade, Fast, 0:15 rate)
