14 Kramer Protocol
Section 14.1 describes how to switch between Protocol 1
By default, the VP-31KSi is set to protocol 3000 (see Section
3000 and Protocol 2000.
14.2 ) but is also
compatible with Kramer’s Protocol 2000 (see Section 14.3 ).
14.1 Switching Protocols
You can switch protocols either via the front panel buttons (see Section 14.1.1 ) or
the protocol commands (see Section 14.1.2 ).
14.1.1 Switching Protocols via the Front Panel Buttons
To switch from protocol 3000 to protocol 2000 via the:
• Front panel buttons, press the IN 1 and IN 2 button simultaneously
• Infrared remote control transmitter, press the TAKE button and then 13
To switch from protocol 2000 to protocol 3000 via the:
• Front panel buttons, press the IN 1 and IN 3 button simultaneously
• Infrared remote control transmitter, press the TAKE button and then 16
14.1.2 Switching Protocols via Protocol Commands
To switch from protocol 3000 to protocol 2000, send the following command:
#P2000
To switch from protocol 2000 to protocol 3000, send the following command:
0x38, 0x80, 0x83, 0x81
The Windows
®
-based Kramer control software

operates with Protocol 2000.
If the VP-31KSi is set to Protocol 3000, it is automatically switched to
Protocol 2000.
14.2 Kramer Protocol 3000
This RS-232/RS-485/Ethernet communication protocol 3
11.1
lets you control the
machine from any standard terminal software (for example, Windows ®
HyperTerminal Application). For serial communication parameters, see
