Matrix Card Numbers
The matrix card number depends on the switchbox configuration
(single-module or multiple-module) set for the matrixes. (Leading zeroes
can be ignored for the card number.) For a single-module switchbox, the
card number is always 01.
For a multiple-module switchbox, the card numbers are 01, 02,...,nn. The
module with the lowest logical address is card number 01, the module with
the next-lowest logical address is card number 02, etc. (See the appropriate
Installation and Getting Started Guide for a definition of logical addresses.)
Example: Multiple-Module Switchbox Card Numbers
Assume the three relay matrixes in the following figure form a switchbox
instrument with logical addresses of 120, 121, and 122. The module with
the lowest logical address is card number 01. The card numbers are shown
in the following figure.
Matrix Channel Numbers
Relay matrix channel numbers are 00-03, 10-13, 20-23, and 30-33.
Specifying a channel number specifies the associated crosspoint relay. For
example,
CLOS (@123)
closes crosspoint relay 23 of card 01 which
connects row 2 to column 3.
Channels can be addressed using channel numbers or channel ranges. For a
single-module switchbox, channel ranges can span across the channels. For
a multiple-module switchbox, channel ranges can span across the channels
of all modules in the switchbox. Use commas (,) to form a channel list or
use a colon (:) to form a channel range.
Only valid channels can be accessed in a channel list or channel range.
Also, the channel list or channel range must be from a lower channel
number to a higher channel number. For example,
is
CLOS (@100:233)
acceptable, but
generates an error.
CLOS (@233:100)
