7. Programmer's Reference
7.3.3. Switching an Input to an Output
Description: Switch input <in> to output <out>.
Format
Command {<in>@<out>}
Response (O<out²>●I<in²>)CrLf
Explanation 1: Input 1 is switched to output 5.
Format
Command {<in>@<out>}
Response (1LO<out²>)CrLf
Explanation 2: Input 2 to output 4 switch is not made because output 4 is locked.
AAAENAIONG!
The response for this command does not show if the output is muted. To check the mute
status a separate query has to be used like {VC}; see the
Outputs
section.
INFO:
To achieve multiple switches executed together, see the
7.3.4. Switching an Input to All Outputs
Description: Switch input <in> to all outputs.
Format
Command {<in>@O}
Response (I<in²>●ALL)CrLf
Explanation: Input 2 is switched to all outputs.
INFO:
The response for this command does not show if any of the outputs are muted. To check the mute
status a separate query has to be used.
INFO:
The response does not show if there were some locked outputs which cannot be switched.
7.3.5. Diagonal Switching
Description: This command switches all outputs to the same numbered inputs. Output 1 will be switched to
the Input 1, Output 2 to Input 2, etc.
Format
Command {<in>@D}
Response (ALL●<out²>●<out²>● ...
●<out²>●<out²>)CrLf
Explanation: The example shows how to connect video outputs to the same numbered inputs. The response
contains all the connections.

7.3.6. Batch Switch Outputs
Description: The router is capable of switching multiple outputs exactly at the same time. To do this, the
normal switch commands have to be used. If the switch commands arrive at the router with less than 10
milliseconds delay, then the router collects the commands and changes the output connections together.
Required circumstances
▪
Switch commands have this format: {<in>@<out>}{<in>@<out>}
▪
The delay between two '}' characters must be below 10 milliseconds
No other command or junk character is allowed between switch commands
▪
▪
Affected outputs must not be locked
If any of the above circumstances fail, then the commands will be processed separately and the output
connections will change on by one.

The delay timeout applies for the receiving time of characters. Please note that if LAN
connection is used then the network may cause additional delays. This could result that batch switching
does not occur.
Below example shows a command that resulted batch switching:
One by one Commands
→ {02@01}
← (O01 I02)CrLf
→ {05@04}
← (O04 I05)CrLf
The below example shows a command that does not resulted batch switching because another command
has been inserted:
One by one Commands
→ {02@01}
← (O01 I02)CrLf
→ {+06}
← (0MT06)CrLf
→ {05@04}
← (O04 I05)CrLf
INFO:
The response does not show if batch switching happened or not. This assures that a third party
controller does not get unknown responses.
Batch Commands
→ {02@01}{05@04}
← (O01 I02)CrLf
← (O04 I05)CrLf
Batch Commands
→ {02@01}{+06}{05@04}
← (O01 I02)CrLf
← (0MT06)CrLf
← (O04 I05)CrLf
