Serial Communication
The DVS 304 can be remotely controlled via a host computer or other device
(such as a control system) attached to the rear panel RS-232 connector or the
LAN port. The control device (host) can use either Extron's Simple Instruction
Set (SIS) commands or the graphical control program for Windows.
The scaler uses a protocol of 9600 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
The rear panel RS-232 9-pin D connector has the following pin assignments:

Host-to-scaler communications
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters
are required to begin or end a command sequence. When the DVS 304
determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and sends a
response to the host device. All responses from the scaler to the host end with a
carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF =
response character string. A string is one or more characters.
Scaler-initiated messages
When a local event such as a front panel selection or adjustment takes place, the
DVS 304 scaler responds by sending a message to the host. No response is
required from the host. The scaler-initiated messages are listed here
(underlined).

Using the command/response tables
The following are either Telnet (port 23) or Web browser (port 80) commands. There are some
minor differences when you are implementing these commands via Telnet or via URL encoding
using a Web browser. All commands listed below will work using either connection method but,
due to some limitations of the Web browser, the encapsulation characters are modified to make
sure that the Web browser will properly handle them. All examples in the command/response
table show the proper implementation in a Telnet or Web browser session.
