Switcher-initiated messages

When a local event such as a front panel operation or an IR 501 command string occurs, the switcher responds by sending a message to the host. The switcher- initiated messages are listed below (underlined).

The switcher does not expect a response from the host, but, for example, the host program might request a new status.
