  • Page 22: Sis Communication And Control

    Switcher-initiated Messages When a local event such as a front panel selection or adjustment takes place, the PVS 405D responds by sending a message to the host. No response is required from the host. Example switcher‑initiated messages are listed here.

  • Page 23: Error Responses

    Error Responses When the PVS 405D receives a valid command, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. If the unit is unable to execute the command because the command contains invalid parameters, it returns an error response to the host.
