Host-to-MPS Communications
The MPS switcher accepts Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands through the RS-232 and
USB configuration port. SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command
field. They do not require special characters to begin or end the command character
sequence. Each response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return and a line feed
(CR/LF = ] ), which signals the end of the response character string. A string is one or more
characters.
MPS Switcher-initiated Messages
When a local event occurs, such as a front panel operation, the MPS switcher responds
by sending a message to the host. The MPS 601-initiated messages are listed below
(underlined).
