Opening and Closing Channels

Example: Closing and opening matrix channels (34931A, 34932A, and 34933A in two-wire mode) The following commands close and open channels 311 and 312 through 315 of a 34932A matrix module in 2- wire mode. This module is in slot 3. The channel number represents the matrix crosspoint of a row (one digit) and a column (two digits). For example, channel 311 represents crosspoint at row 3 and column 11 on a 34932A module.

ROUTe:OPEN (@3311,3312:3315)

Example: Closing and opening matrix channels (34933A in one-wire mode) The following commands close and open channels 311 and 312 through 315 of the 34933A module in 1- wire mode. The module is in slot 4. The channel number represents the matrix and the matrix crosspoint of a row (one digit) and a column (one digit). For example, channel 311 represents the crosspoint on matrix 3 at row 1, column 1 on a 34933A module in 1- wire mode.

NOTE	Although the previous two examples show the same channel
	numbers, the channels are derived differently as determined by a
	module’s configuration mode. See page 139 for channel number
	derivation.

Example: Closing and opening Analog Bus relays The following command

connects the Analog Buses to Matrix 2 for a module (in 2- wire mode) in

slot 3.

ROUTe:OPEN (@3921,3922,3923,3924)

NOTE	For matrix modules in 2-wire mode, only Matrix 2 connects to the
	the Analog Buses. For the 34933A in 1-wire mode, only Matrix 3 and
	Matrix 4 connect to the Analog Buses.

The Analog Bus relays (numbered s921, s922, s923, etc.) on the matrix modules are ignored if they are included in a range of channels. An error will be generated if an Analog Bus relay is specified as the first or last channel in a range of channels. For example, the following command closes all valid channels between channel 304 and channel 615 (slot 2). In addition, this command closes Analog Bus relay 911 on the module in slot 1 (Bank 1). Note that although the specified range of channels includes the other Analog Bus relays, they are ignored and are not closed by this command.
