5. Remote Control Commands
The system can be controlled through any of the remote
interfaces available on the CPU controller. The control commands
are the same regardless of the interface in use.
Universal Switching products utilize a 488.2 compliant control
protocol. For support of older US2, US3 US4, and MSC control
protocols, contact Customer Support.
5.1. Changing Between Control Protocols
The 488.2 protocols are the factory default and are enabled when
a system is delivered from the factory. Additional control modes
such as USx, Matrix Systems, etc. may be available. The user may
change the control mode, but it is recommended that any
software developed for new applications utilize 488.2 compliant
protocols.
Use the following command to change the switching system to
the 488.2 compatibility (factory default):
•
ST 222
or by pressing STORE 222 ENTER on the front panel.
Use the following command to change the switching system to
backwards compatibility (US2, US3, US4, MSC):
•
SET 29, 0
or by pressing STORE 223 ENTER on the front panel.
