Executing a Test Switch with BCS

We recommend routing a test switch with BCS (Basic Control Structure) commands on the Diagnostics page (see below) or with the XBar Controller (see page 72).

Note: The Diagnostics page also displays Communication Statistics and provides access to a Telnet session for controlling the Octaire with BCS commands (see page 81).

Note: If you are not familiar with BCS (Basic Control Structure) commands, see the “BCS Instruction Manual” on the AMX AutoPatch CD or at www.amx.com.

BCS commands are not case sensitive.

Before executing the test switch, make sure the first source device and the first destination device are connected to the input and output connectors exactly as shown in the “Octaire AutoPatch Connector Guide” for your matrix switcher. Depending on the signal and connector type, you may need to attach more than one input and output for a signal (e.g., a Y/c signal will be routed over a BNC connector on the enclosure that routes “Y” and over a BNC connector on the enclosure that routes “c”).

The following test switch routes Input 1 to Output 1 on Level 0.

To send a test BCS command:

1.From any page in the site, click the Diagnostics link.

2.Enter CL0I1O1T (Change Level 0, Input 1 to Output 1, Take) in the BCS string field.

3.Click Send.

The system response for the command displays directly under the BCS string field. When the exact command that was entered appears, the command has been successfully executed.
