Rx = receiver

The "disable" SIS command (66*0*0#) can be input only directly to the receiver; it cannot be input via the DA. If you attempt to issue this SIS command to the DA, an E14 error code results. For this reason, the command is not documented further in this manual.

The disable is cleared when the receiver experiences a master reset.

Unit-initiated messages

When a local event, such as an error condition or a master receiver front panel operation, occurs, the unit responds by sending a message to the host. The unit-initiated messages are listed below:

(c) Copyright 2007, Extron Electronics FOX 500 DA6, Vx.xx, 60-863-xx]]

The connected unit issues the copyright message (above) when it first powers on. Vx.xx is the firmware version number, 60-863-xxis the connected unit's part number.

Reconfig]

The unit sends the Reconfig message whenever the video input signal to the DA is changed.

1LnkX1^•2LnkX1^•RGBX1^•AudX1^]

The unit sends the status message whenever a change in the fiber link and video and audio connection occurs.

Front panel operations

N All of the front panel operations described in this section

are prompted by actions performed on the master receiver.

The Optical 2 cable must be connected between the master

NThe same commands and data are transmitted to all receivers through the DA's Optical 1 cables. Only the master receiver can return commands and data to the DA (via the Optical 2 cable).

NExtron recommends disabling the Optical 2 output on each non-master receiver using an SIS command. This has the same affect as disconnecting the Optical 2 cable, including disabling many of the adjustments available in the receiver's menu system. Disabling these adjustments avoids confusion and/or inconsistent settings among receivers. Disabled adjustments include: total pixels, phase, horizontal start, output sync format, audio gain and attenuation, and auto image.

HphX$]

The unit sends the Hph message whenever the output's horizontal position is shifted from the master receiver's front panel.

VphX$]

The unit sends the Vph message whenever the output's vertical position is shifted from the master receiver's front panel.

HstX%]

The unit sends the Hst message whenever the output's horizontal start is shifted from the master receiver's front panel.
