RS-232 Programming Guide

Host-to-VSC Communications

SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are required
to begin or end a command sequence. When the VSC determines that a command is valid,
it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. All responses from the
VSC to the host end 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.

Video Scan Converter-initiated Messages

When a local event such as a front panel selection or adjustment takes place, the VSC
responds by sending a message to the host. No response is required from the host. The
VSC-initiated messages are listed here (underlined).
