10.2 System architecture and conventions

The AuviTran AVM500-ES has 5xES100 ports named A, B, C, D and E. An AVM500-ES Port has 64 inputs and 64 outputs.

By convention, an inputs or an outputs of a port P is directly named by as simple basic letter {A, B, C, D, E} following by a 2

decimal digits. For instance:

 A01 is interpreted as I/O 1 of port A

 E62 is interpreted as I/O 62 of port E…

10.3 Programming interface

Any serial command is defined by a set of ASCII char following by <CR> or <CR><LF> ASCII sequence.

Five commands are defined today from the serial port patch:

• Get serial protocol version

• Set output patch

• Mute output

• UnMute output

• Get output information

If an unknown command is sent, interpreter will return the ten first characters of the command, followed by « ? » character.

At end of each response, prompt character “>” is added after <CR>.

10.3.1 Get serial protocol version

V?<CR>

V=X.Y<CR>>

Where X.Y is the version number of the serial protocol.

For instance:

Command send: V?
