mode of the Java tool.
To create a report, proceed as follows:
1. Select File > Report... in the menu bar. A selection assistant will be opened.
2. Select those contents that should be included in the report (Matrix View, EXT Units, CPU Devices
and CON Devices) and confirm with the Next > button.
3. Select the preferred location for storage of the report and confirm with the Finish button. The report
will be created as a PDF file.

Control through the Serial Interface
The Orion X operating system offers a number of functions for control via serial interface. There are
telegrams for switching single or all connections available, both unidirectional and bidirectional. In addition,
there are telegrams for an overall definition of the total switching status and for saving and loading such
switching states.
By request, the Orion X can provide an echo through the serial interface or network interface of all
switching operations. This allows tracking of the current connection status of the matrix at any time.
As an additional application, Orion X clones can be switched as slaves (Stacking) in parallel via serial
network interface.
