Verbose Modes and Tagged Responses

In verbose response mode, the switcher responds with more information than it usually would. For example, the
switcher can send out a notice of a change in some setting without receiving a query via the PC. That change
could have been a result of an internal process (a script execution), a selection made using a touchpanel or
keypad, a change made using PCS or a web page, or input from a connected sensor or switch. That is an
example of a verbose (wordy) relationship between the switcher and a connected device. Verbose mode creates
more network traffic than usual, which can slow down network performance.
NOTES:
• In verbose response mode, the switcher responds with unsolicited responses for value and setting
changes that may result from a signal change, or a setting adjustment made via another interface.
•
For example, the switcher can send out a notice of a change in some setting without receiving a query
via a PC or a control system. That change could have been a result of an internal process, a selection
made from the front panel, or a selection made via PCS. This is an example of a verbose (wordy)
relationship between the controller and a connected device.
•
If tagged responses are enabled, all View type commands return the command string plus the data,
the same as in responses for setting a value. For example:
Command: E CN }
Response: Ipn

(Responses to SIS
commands are always
tagged.
Turning tagged responses
on adds tags to the
responses to SIS read
requests.)
