At the beginning of the first line the router sends an asterisk and after the last line the router sends an exclamation !.

"SA": Status Inquiry for Audio gains

Request: **SA!!

The command "SA" requests the status information for all audio gain values be returned to the host. The reply from the router to the host is with a list of all output and all input gain values. The number of lines of data in the list is equal to the number of outputs plus the number of inputs as set up by the Configuration command explained later. The number of columns in the list is also set by the Configuration command. The configuration command determines the number audio channels. The default sequences across each line of the status message is:

Output number – comma left level– comma right level<CR> Then:

Input number – comma left level– comma right level<CR>

At the beginning of the first line the router sends an asterisk and after the last line the router sends an exclamation !.

The example above is for a typical system with one stereo audio path. For systems with more than one stereo audio path, each line within the list will have the next channel’s left and right gains and so on for whatever number of channels the system may have. The audio level is a number from 0 to 255.

When a system with no audio gain registers is queried by the “SA” command the router may respond with: !* which indicates that there is no data
