Command chain separator character

When a message string contains more than one command, a pipe ( '' ) character separates each command.

Spaces between parameters or command terms are ignored.

11.1.4Entering Commands

You can directly enter all commands using a terminal with ASCII communications software, such as HyperTerminal, Hercules, etc. Connect the terminal to the serial or Ethernet port on the Kramer device. To enter CR press the Enter key.

( LF is also sent but is ignored by command parser).

For commands sent from some non-Kramer controllers like Crestron, some characters require special coding (such as, /X##). Refer to the controller manual.

11.1.5Command Forms

Some commands have short name syntax in addition to long name syntax to allow faster typing. The response is always in long syntax.

11.1.6Chaining Commands

Multiple commands can be chained in the same string. Each command is delimited by a pipe character (“”). When chaining commands, enter the message starting character and the message closing character only once, at the beginning of the string and at the end.

Commands in the string do not execute until the closing character is entered. A separate response is sent for every command in the chain.

11.1.7Maximum String Length
