• If all outputs are connected to input 1 then a 4x4 Matrix will respond

with

<0x80><0x80><0x80><0x80>

• The router will send back one byte for each output and the string

ends with a . The first byte sent is Output #1. In the example

above, since there are 5 bytes total, we know that there are 4

outputs.

• To calculate the input number, the router sends the input number

with the 7th bit set.

0x80 = “1000 0000” input 0

0x81 = “1000 0001” input 1

0x8F = “1000 1111” input 15
