7.2.2 Message Structure
This section describes the message structure supported in the GV Performer ASCII Protocol.
A message consists of a Message Header followed by Command Data (Cmd Data). The Message
Header consists of 5 bytes of information (described below). The Command Data portion can vary in
size depending on which commands and how many commands are included within it.
The general message structure is as follows:
Syntax:
Carriage return (0DH).
Part of the Message Header.
High byte of Performer Switch 1 Address.
Part of the Message Header.
This is ignored, but must be valid ASCII hex digit.
(E.g. ‘0’ to ‘9’ or ‘A’ to ‘F’).
Low byte of Performer Switch 1 Address.
Part of the Message Header.
This is ignored, but must be valid ASCII hex digit.
(E.g. ‘0’ to ‘9’ or ‘A’ to ‘F’).
High byte of byte count for Cmd Data.
Part of the Message Header.
Must be valid ASCII hex digit.
(E.g. ‘0’ to ‘9’ or ‘A’ to ‘F’).
Low byte of byte count for Cmd Data.
Part of the Message Header.
Must be valid ASCII hex digit.
(E.g. ‘0’ to ‘9’ or ‘A’ to ‘F’).
Zero or more commands consisting of valid ASCII
characters.
7.2.3 Commands
This section describes the commands in the GV Performer ASCII Protocol that are supported by the
9430 Router. Commands in the original protocol that are not supported by the 9430 Router will simply
be ignored.
The commands described here fit into the field of the message described in “Message
Structure” above on this page.
Note that multiple commands may be sent in a single message up to a maximum of 251 bytes.
