Remote Control Protocol

Introduction

This document specifies a protocol suitable for simple control of a Series
6000 routing system by a computer. As the protocol is ASCII text based,
remote changes can be made using a terminal or a computer running
terminal emulation software.

For most applications only the .S command will be required to set
crosspoints, with the .I or .L command to interrogate crosspoints. The .#01
command may be used at system start up to check the RS232/RS422 link.
