AMX Epica DGX 16 Instruction Manual page 47

When using HyperTerminal, command characters are entered and sent to the enclosure's CPU (the
command characters appear in HyperTerminal when the enclosure responds). When all of the entered
characters appear in HyperTerminal, the command has been successfully executed.
Levels in BCS commands are the equivalent of virtual matrices for switching purposes.
The following test switch routes Input 1 to Output 2 on Level 0 (VM 0, the default virtual matrix).
To execute the test switch:
1.
Enter the following BCS command line:
CL0I1O2T
When a single "T" appears, the system has successfully executed the command. If any other character(s)
appears, the command was not successful. Verify that the source signal is present (visible and/or audible)
at the destination.
For a complete list of BCS commands and responses, see the Instruction Manual – BCS Basic Control
Structure Protocol on the AMX AutoPatch CD or at www.amx.com.
Test Switch Troubleshooting
If the test switch did not execute correctly:

Epica DGX 16 and Epica DGX 32 Instruction Manual
Check the power indicator on the front of the enclosure.
If it is not illuminated, check the power cords at the enclosure and at the power source.
Verify the status of the test switch. If status returns as routed correctly, the system established
a connection between the specified input and output connectors within the enclosure.
Control panel: use the Control Dial to scroll to Status. Press the Select Key. Press
Output Key 2 (turns white). If Input Key 1 turns white, the test switch is routed.
BCS commands: enter "SL0O2T". If "SL0O2T(1)" appears, the test switch is routed.
Check all link and signal connections on the rear of the enclosure(s) to make sure everything is
physically set up correctly.
If applicable, check connections on DGX Fiber modules (also see "Troubleshooting" in the
Instruction Manual – DGX Transmitters & Receivers).
Check all power switches on the source and destination devices to make sure all are turned on.
Depending on the board type:
Isolate source/destination equipment and cable problems by patching around the router
using a cable adapter (FIG. 25) to check the overall signal path.
Check the SC fiber connectors to make sure they are fully inserted into the DGX Fiber
module and that no dust or debris is on the exposed fiber ends of the cable or on the
module.
Check the documentation for the DGX Fiber modules to be sure they are installed
correctly. Isolate source and destination devices using the DGX Fiber modules to bypass
the enclosure to check the fiber cable and overall signal path.
Attempt the switch again.
If the switch still does not work, contact technical support (see page 42).
