DVX-2155 Switch Commands

Brian

This is the first one of these units I have worked on and I'm a little confused about the port mapping. The Instruction Manual shows multiple inputs and outputs on the same port number. Then later in the doc it has sample commands that look like AutoPatch commands. Just not sure how to structure the commands. Just need to do input and output switching.

Here is the structure:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>, "'CI<input>O<output>'"

Here is the example command:
SEND_COMMAND SWITCHER,"'CI4O2'"
switches input 4 to output 2

I don't have the hardware with me so troubleshooting is a little hard. Do I need to define the dev address and port or just send to "SWITCHER" like the command above?

thanks

Hope this makes sense.

You have to define the switcher as a device. I get the DVX and DGX confused in my head sometimes and I'm not in front of the computer to double check. But I think it is bt default device 5002. Double check that, however or somebody correct me if wrong.

You don't have to declare the device in the command. You could just hard code the actual device:port:system but why do all that typing?

Just reaffirming what Eric said:

DEFINE_DEVICE
dvSwitcher = 05002:1:0


Usage:

SEND_COMMAND dvSwitcher,"'CI4O2'"
