Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) Commands

Introduction to SIS

SIS commands consist of a string (one or more characters per command field). For the FOX 2G Tx/Rx AV, apart from setting audio gain ("G") and attenuation ("g"), upper and lower case characters may be used interchangeably. Commands do not require any special characters to begin or end the command string. Each response from the unit ends with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = ]), which signals the end of the response character string.

When the FOX 2G Tx/Rx AV unit is first switched on, depending on the model, it sends one of the following messages:
