Rset, Control Commands | Altinex MAX Series instruction

MATRIX SWITCHERS

[RSET]

This command resets or initializes the switcher to the power-on condition. With this command, the baud rate is changed to 2400 bps, all current inputs from outputs are disconnected, unit ID number is set to 1, memory number 1 is recalled, and all levels (VIDEO & AUDIO) are enabled.

[BAUDn]

n=1(31hex)	300 baud
n=2(32hex)	600 baud
n=3(33hex)	1200 baud
n=4(34hex)	2400 baud
n=5(35hex)	4800 baud
n=6(36hex)	9600 baud

This command switches the MAX Switcher into different baud rates. The factory default baud rate setting is for 2400 bps.

The same code for baud rate is used to control projectors from the MAX Series Switcher. When controlling other devices, the MAX Series has the ability to output RS-232 commands at a specified baud rate yet still be controlled by a fixed baud rate control system.

For example, if you need to control projector using 2400 baud and your control system operates at 9600 baud, you can program the MAX Switcher to output commands at 2400 baud rate and receive them at 9600 baud.

[BEEPn]

n=1 Beeper ON

n=0 Beeper OFF

This command allows the beep sound to be turned ON or OFF on the MAX Series Switcher, which is generated while pressing a key on the front panel or processing a valid RS-232 command.

7.2.3 CONTROL COMMANDS.

These control commands are used for controlling the switcher: they are a part of a program to operate the switcher. These

command actions are lost if power to the unit is lost or if the unit is reset in any way.

[UIDn]

n = unit ID number 0-9, A-Z, a-z

This command is used to enable all switchers, disable all switchers or enable individual switchers with specific unit ID numbers.

n=0	All units with IDs 0-9, A-Z, a-z are
	disabled and only respond to
	another [UIDn] command. This
	allows pass-through control of other
	RS-232 devices on the same RS-232
	line without effecting the MAX.
n=1	All units with IDs 0-9, A-Z, and a-z
	are enabled and respond to any of
	the RS-232 commands. This allows
	simultaneous control of all MAX’s
	connected to the same RS-232 port.

n=2 through 9, A through Z, a through z Enables an individual MAX Switcher. This command does not disable any units.

For example, if [UID3] is issued followed by [UID2] then both units 3 and 2 will respond to the issued commands. To disable all switchers and enable any particular switcher, issue [UID0] followed by [UIDn] of the switcher that needs to be enabled.

[SELn]

n=0 Control all channels together [VIDEO+AUDIO]

n=1 Control Red

n=2 Control Green

n=3 Control Blue

n=4 Control H–Sync and V-Sync

n=5 Control Audio Right

n=6 Control Audio Left

n=7 Control Audio Right and Left (Audio channels)

n=8 Control Red, Green, and Blue

n=9 Control Red, Green, Blue, and H and V Sync (Video channels)
