7. Programmer's Reference
7.2. Storage Memories
The matrix stores many configuration settings and parameters and uses different memories. In some cases,
it is important to know which setting is stored in which memory.
7.2.1. Matrix Frame Memory
Settings
▪ Matrix router serial number
HDCP options
▪
▪ I/O slot limits
These settings are stored in matrix frame memory and remain after any board swap(ing) – even CPU2 – or
any firmware upgrade.
7.2.2. CPU Board Memory
Settings
I/O port and preset names
▪
DDID lists (F, U, D)
▪
▪ DDID emulation table (D)
▪ Input and Output port settings
Crosspoint settings and Crosspoint presets
▪
▪ Serial port settings
▪ IP settings
Analog video timings
▪
▪ Test input multiplexer (FR80)
▪ Protocol modes
Remote alert send levels
▪
These settings remain unchanged after any firmware upgrade.
Basic error list
This error list is stored in a RAM and it is cleared after by every reset or power off. Since the firmware upgrade
process ends with a reset so the log is lost, but the whole logged data is stored in the SD card, as well.
7.2.3. SD Memory Card (CPU2 Board)
Settings: Detailed error list
Drror log helps the support team if there is any dysfunction. CPU2 board stores the error log with time
stamps.
7.2.4. Input and Output Board Memory
Settings: Manufacturing parameters
An input or output board can store the manufacturing parameters which regards only that board which
contains them.

7.3. Switching and Control Commands
7.3.1. Aest Input and Preview Output
MX-FR80R and MX-FR80R
Used in the MX-FR80R or MX-FR65R router frame, the Preview output is directly connected to the 80th output
port with a DVI splitter. Therefore this port always outputs the same signal as the 80th output, even if it has
a different interface (TP, OPT, etc.).
The 80th input port of the crosspoint is multiplexed between the Test input port and the 8th port of the 10th
input card. This switch is independent from the crosspoint state. The selected port (Test input or Input board
#10) will be available as the 80th input on the crosspoint switch.
Other Frames
All other frames use the Test input and Preview output just like any other ports. These ports are referred as
the last port in the crosspoint.
7.3.2. Selecting the 80th Input Port

INFO: Available only for MX-FR80R.
Description: Configure the 80th port to use the Test input port or the 8th port of the 10th input card.
Command {TI=<value>}
Response (TI=<value>)CrLf
Explanation: Querying the Test input state. The test input is selected for the 80th input of crosspoint.
The last port on the 10th input board is not used.
Legend: <value>: ? = Query 80th port multiplexer status.

INFO: The status of the multiplexer is not shown in other crosspoint commands. The crosspoint switching
works independently from this setting.
Frame Aest input Preview output
MX-FR9 in 9 out 9
MX-FR17 in 17 out 17
MX-FR33L in 33 out 33
MX-FR33R in 33 out 33
MX-FR65R in 80 out 80
MX-FR80R multiplexed in 80 distributed out 80
Format
→ {ti=?}
← (TI=1)CrLf
0 = Set port multiplexer to use the 8th port of the 10th input card.
1 = Set port multiplexer to use the Test input port.
