Host-to-Switcher Instructions

The switcher accepts SIS (Simple Instruction Set) commands through either serial

port and the LAN 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).
(c) Copyright 2006, Extron Electronics CP 300 450 MAV IP, Vx.xx, 60-nnn-01 {day,
date, 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 and 60-nnn-nn is the switcher part number.

N

{Day, date, time} are only reported if the connection is 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.

password has been entered. If the user and administrator passwords are the same,

the switcher defaults to administrator privileges.

operation has occurred.

the front panel. nn is the preset number.
