Input and output numbers in commands may be entered as either 1-digit, 2-digit, or 3-digit numbers. All input and output numbers are reported as 2-digit numbers in the response.

= Input number	01 – 08
= Input number (for tie)	00 – 08 (0=disconnected)
= Output number	01 – 08
= Numeric dB value	-18 to +24 (43 steps of gain or attenuation)
= Audio gain	0	– 24 (1 dB/step)
= Audio attenuation	1	– 18 (1 dB/step)
= Volume adjustment range	0% to 100%
= Mute, executive mode	0 = off, 1 = on
= Group # (for I/O grouping)	1 through 4 groups (0 = no group)
= Global preset #	16 maximum (0 = current configuration)
= Video/audio mute:	0	= no mutes
	2	= audio mute

= Controller firmware version number to second decimal place
