SIS Configuration and Control
The DTP2 CrossPoint 82 switchers can be configured and controlled via SIS commands when connected to a
host computer or other device (such as a control system). Attach the host device to the rear panel RS-232
connector or LAN connector, or to the front panel USB port. Commands can be entered using a Telnet application
such as the Extron DataViewer, available at
The default protocol for the RS-232 connection is 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.

Host and Switcher Communication
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are required to begin or end a
command sequence. When the switcher determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and
sends a response to the host device. All responses from the switcher to the host end with a carriage return and a
line feed
(CR/LF = ] ), indicating the end of the response character string (one or more characters).

The copyright message is displayed upon connecting to a switcher via USB, Telnet, SIS via SSH or after a power
