RGB mute commands

 

 

 

RGB mute

X@*1B

VmtX@*1]

Mute output X@ RGB (video

 

 

 

off).

RGB unmute

X@*0B

VmtX@*0]

Unmute output X@ RGB

 

 

 

(video on).

Read RGB mute

X@B

X#]

1 = mute on, 0 = mute off.

Global RGB mute

1*B

Vmt1]

Mute all RGB outputs.

Global RGB unmute

0*B

Vmt0]

Unmute all RGB outputs.

NAn IR 501 user can mute video and/or audio with a string of IR commands that cannot be duplicated by a computer or control system sending SIS commands. The switcher sends the following responses:

IR 501 RGB and audio mute

{none}

MutX@*1]

Output X@’s RGB and audio

 

 

 

are muted.

IR 501 RGB mute

{none}

VmtX@*1]

Output X@’s RGB is muted.

IR 501 RGB and audio

{none}

Zpz]

Output X@’s RGB and audio

unmute

 

 

are unmuted.

Audio input gain and attenuation

NThe set gain (G) and set attenuation (g) commands are case sensitive.

Set audio input gain to +dB

X$*X%G

InX$•AudX^]

 

value

 

 

 

Example:

1*2G

In1•Aud+02]

Set input 1 audio gain to +2 dB.

Set audio input attenuation

X$*X&g

InX$•AudX^]

 

to -dB value

 

 

 

Increment gain

X$+G

InX$•AudX^]

Increase gain by 1 dB.

Example:

5+G

In5•Aud+03]

Increase audio input 5 level

 

 

 

from +2 dB to +3 dB.

Decrement gain

X$-G

InX$•AudX^]

Decrease gain by 1 dB.

Example:

7-G

In7•Aud-09]

Decrease audio input 7 level

 

 

 

from -8 dB to -9 dB.

Read input gain

X$G

X^]

 

Example:

3G

-06]

Audio input 3 level is at -6 dB.

Audio output level

Set audio output to the

X@*0*40#

consumer level (-10 dBV)

 

Set audio output to the

X@*1*40#

proffesional level (+4 dBu)

 

Read output level

X@+40#

Example:

3*40#

OutX@•Lvl0]

OutX@•Lvl1]

X*]

X%= Audio gain

0

– 24 (1 dB/step)

X^= Numeric dB value

–18 to +24 (45 steps of gain or attenuation) (Default = 0 dB)

X&= Audio attenuation

1

– 18 (1 dB/step)

X*= Output gain

0

= consumer level (–10 dBV)
