Kramer Protocol 2000
NOTE 5 - This is a request to identify the switcher/s in the system. If the OUTPUT is set as 0, and the INPUT is set as 1 the machine will send its name. The reply is the decimal value of the INPUT and OUTPUT. For example, for a 2216, the reply to the request to send the audio machine name would be (HEX codes):
7D | 96 | 90 | 81 (i.e. 128dec+ 22dec for 2nd byte, and 128dec+ 16dec for 3rd byte). |
If the request for identification is sent with the INPUT set as 3 the appropriate machine will send its software version number. Again, the reply would be the decimal value of the INPUT and OUTPUT - the INPUT representing the number in front of the decimal point, and the OUTPUT representing the number after it. For example, for version 3.5, the reply to the request to send the version number would be (HEX codes):
7D | 83 | 85 | 81 (i.e. 128dec+ 3dec for 2nd byte, 128dec+ 5dec for 3rd byte). |
If the OUTPUT is set as 1, then the ASCII coding of the lettering following the machine’s name is sent. For example, for the
7D | D9 | C3 | 81 (i.e. 128dec+ ASCII for ª Yº ; 128dec+ ASCII for ª Cº ). |
NOTE 6 - The number of inputs and outputs refers to the specific machine which is being addressed, not to the system. For example, if six 16X16 matrices are configured to make a 48X32 system (48 inputs, 32 outputs), the reply to the HEX code
3E | 82 | 81 | 82 (ie. request the number of outputs) |
would be HEX codes |
|
| |
7E | 82 | 90 | 82 |
ie. 16 outputs |
|
|
|
NOTE 7 - The reply to the ª REQUEST WHETHER PANEL IS LOCKEDº is as in NOTE 3 above, except that here the OUTPUT is assigned with the value 0 if the panel is unlocked, or 1 if it is locked.
