Communications Protocol for the FC-7501
9
This protocol complements Kramer’s “Protocol 2000” (Kramer’s switcher
protocol), so the two protocols can co-exist without disturbing one another.
(According to Protocol 2000, the
FC-7501 appears as machine number 22,
so care should be taken not to set a switcher with this machine number).

Note that the MSB’s of the DATA (D7) and the EXTENDED DATA (E7) are in the fourth byte.
Terminology:
TO PC is the “DESTINATION BIT”
I4..I0 is the “INSTRUCTION”
D7..D0 is the “DATA”
E7..E0 is the “EXTENDED DATA”
A0 is the “LSB of the MACHINE ADDRESS”
The destination bit, TO PC, is 0 when sending from the PC to the machine, or 1 when sending from the machine to the PC.
