Remote
Configuration and
Control
This section describes the methods by which the Quantum Ultra Series can be configured
and controlled remotely: the Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands and the
Videowall Configuration Software (VCS). It describes the available SIS commands and
how to enter them, as well as providing instructions for obtaining and accessing VCS.

SIS Commands

You can use SIS commands to configure and control the processor via a host computer
or other device (such as a control system) attached to the rear panel Remote RS-232
connector, LAN A or B port, or USB Config connector. Enter commands using a host
communication application such as the Extron DataViewer, available at
(see the DataViewer Help file to use this program). The RS-232 port uses a protocol of
9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are
required to begin or end a command sequence. When the processor determines that a
command is valid, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device.
All responses from the Quantum Ultra to the host end with a carriage return and a line
feed (CR/LF = ] ), indicating the end of the response character string (one or more
characters).
