  If the Extron Device is using the SIS protocol:

  PUSH[dvPanel,1]
  {
  SEND_STRING dvExtron,'1*2!' // route In1 to Out2 both Video and Audio
  }
  

  '!' is video adn audio
  '%' is video only
  '$' is audio only
  
  Baud rate is 9800,N,8,1
  
  To disconnect a route AFAIK it's

  PUSH[dvPanel,2]
  {
  SEND_STRING dvExtron,'0*2!' // disconnect route to Out2, both video and audio
  }

  I have understand that, but how to push two buttons, and create from that one command ?
  
  I mean , when I push button 3 and button 1 to create command '2*3!'

  I misunderstood, sorry.
  

  DEFINE_VARIABLE
  INTEGER nSource
  INTEGER nDest
  
  DEFINE_CALL 'SwitchExtron'(INTEGER In, INTEGER Out)
  {
  SEND_STRING dvExtron,"ITOA(In),'*',ITOA(Out),'!'"
  }
  
  DEFINE_PROGRAM
  PUSH[dvPanel,3]
  {
  nSource = 2
  }
  PUSH[dvPanel,1]
  {
  nDest = 3
  }
  IF((nIn>0) AND (nOut>0))
  {
  CALL 'SwitchExtron'(nSource,nDest)
  nSource = 0
  nDest = 0
  }
  

  
  OK, this some kind of rudimental..... Depending on your experience and AMX platform there are a lot of solutions possible....

  Assuming you have more than one input and more than one output:
  

  PUSH [TP,1]  (* these are sources 1-8)
  PUSH [TP,2]
  PUSH [TP,3]
  PUSH [TP,4]
  PUSH [TP,5]
  PUSH [TP,6]
  PUSH [TP,7]
  PUSH [TP,8]
  {
    CurrSource = PUSH_CHANNEL
  }
  
  [TP,1] = (CurrSource = 1)  (* Let's light up the active source button *)
  [TP,2] = (CurrSource = 2)
  [TP,3] = (CurrSource = 3)
  [TP,4] = (CurrSource = 4)
  [TP,5] = (CurrSource = 5)
  [TP,6] = (CurrSource = 6)
  [TP,7] = (CurrSource = 7)
  [TP,8] = (CurrSource = 8)
  
  PUSH [TP,11]  (* once you select a source, then you can select where you want it to go *)
  PUSH [TP,12]  (* these buttons are for destinations 1-8 *)
  PUSH [TP,13]
  PUSH [TP,14]
  PUSH [TP,15]
  PUSH [TP,16]
  PUSH [TP,17]
  PUSH [TP,18]
  {
    CurrDest = PUSH_CHANNEL - 10
  
    SEND_STRING Extron,"ITOA(CurrSource),'*',ITOA(CurrDest),'!'"
  }
  
    (* You get to figure out how you want to do code for the destination buttons.  :)  *)
