MATRIX SWITCHING

Matrix-Switching Control: RS-232 and Telnet

CXPS Manual Edition 1.08 Operation 43

EXAMPLE TWO

To route Input 1 to display at Outputs 6 and 7, select the Input 1 button, then select the

Output 6 button, routing Input 1 to Output 6. Then, select the Input 1 button again, and

select the Output 7 button, routing Input 1 to Output 7.

To view individual input-output assignments: GUI Matrix Page

Individual input-output assignments can be viewed by pressing the numbered output buttons

found in the Outputs section of the Matrix page. Selecting a numbered output button will

illuminate both the selected button and the input button to which it has been routed.

EXAMPLE

To see what input is routed to Output 1, press the Output 1 button. In our example,

Figure 10, you can see that Input 2 is routed to Output 1, as indicated by the green lights

illuminating their respective buttons.

TELNET

Using RS-232/Telnet commands, you can control input-output assignments, determine

which input is routed to a particular output, and even simultaneously switch input-output

assignments.

By default, the first single-link DVI input is routed to all single-link outputs and the first

dual-link DVI input is routed to all dual-link outputs. Single-link DVI inputs can be

displayed on any output channel, but dual-link DVI inputs can only be displayed on the

output channels on the cards in odd-numbered slots. For more information on this

limitation, see “Dual-Link vs Single-Link” on page 12.

For a complete list of serial control commands, see Appendix A, “RS-232 and 10/100T

Protocol.”

Switch Command

The SWITCH command is used to route any input to display on any output channel. The

command is:

SW <input #> <output #>

An input can be routed to multiple outputs, which lets you display the same input image on

multiple displays.

NOTE

The CXPS’ RS-232 and Telnet commands and Telnet protocol are

identical.
