3.4.10 HOW TO USE THE TIMED PATTERN RECALL MODE
(RS Series, ChameleonHB, and Chameleon256)
The controller can be programmed to recall the crosspoint patterns stored in
the router at timed intervals. To turn the timed mode on, push the S (STORE) key,
then enter 90, then push ENTER. The display will read TIMED MODE ON. To turn
timed mode off, push S (STORE) key, then 91, then ENTER. The display will read
TIMED MODE OFF, then return to the READY prompt after a few seconds.
To set the time between patterns, push the S (STORE) key, then enter 92. The
display will prompt you for a time interval from 1 to 999; enter a one-, two-, or three-
digit number and push ENTER. Each increment of time interval is about 1 second.
3.5 SINGLE OUTPUT MODE
3.5.1 SETTING THE OUTPUT STATION
In single-station mode, the output being controlled is listed on the scrolling
display. To change the output push the S (STORE) key, then 82, then enter a one-
to three-digit output number, and push ENTER.
3.5.2 HOW TO ROUTE TO THE SELECTED OUTPUT
Push the B (BOTH), V (VIDEO), or A (AUDIO), then enter a one- to three-digit
number (one digit for the RS4x4 or RS8x8, two for the RS16x16 or Chameleon64, or
three for the ChameleonHB and Chameleon256) representing the input you wish to
connect to. It is not necessary to push ENTER (for the ChameleonHB and
Chameleon256 you may optionally push a one- or two-digit number, then ENTER).
After BOTH, VIDEO, or AUDIO has been pushed it is not necessary to push it
again before subsequent commands.
To move between various inputs, it is possible to use the SALVO and QUEUE
buttons to move up or down through the inputs. Push the SALVO button to move
to the next higher input (or QUEUE to move to the next lower) and push ENTER to
execute the command.
3.6 STRINGS MODE
In strings mode only the pre-programmed strings can be sent from the controller;
thus only the numeric keys are used (the SALVO, QUEUE, B, V, A, S, and R buttons
are not used). To send a string, enter the two-digit number from 01 to 64 for the
string to be sent.
Simple strings may be entered from the keypad; more complex strings must be
entered from an upstream terminal. From the keypad, in STRINGS mode, push the S
key and a two-digit number between 01 and 64. Then enter the command exactly as
you wish it to be sent (e.g., S01, then V1608), then push ENTER. The carriage return
after the command will be appended automatically.
In storing ASCII strings from an upstream terminal, the command $Sxx, where
xx is a two-digit number from 01 to 64, must precede the actual string to be stored.
Strings may contain any ASCII or HEX characters, but the HEX characters must be
represented in brackets; e.g., <0D> for 0Dh (the carriage return function). No carriage
return is appended, so each string must end with <0D> if a carriage return is desired.
For example, if the terminal sends this sequence of characters:
$S01B0101<0D>B2208<0D>B0401<0D>
string 01 will contain a command to connect output 1 to input 1, output 22 to input
8, and output 4 to input 1 for both video and audio.
To replace a string simply store a new string over the old one.
3.7 RECALL MODE
In recall mode only patterns stored in the router's memory can be recalled (the
SALVO, QUEUE, B, V, A, S, and R buttons are not used). To recall a pattern, enter
the two-digit number (one digit for the RS4x4 and RS8x8, no digits for the
Chameleon64) of the pattern. It is not necessary to push ENTER.
