Additional Description
Output Switching by Plane
NOTES: 
•  The & tie command for RGBHV and the % tie command for video can be used interchangeably.
•  The ! tie command can be used for switching both video signals and audio signals with the same plane address.
•  The & tie command for RGB and the % tie command for video can be used interchangeably. 
•  The & read tie command for RGB and the % read tie command for video can be used interchangeably.
•  Commands can be entered back-to-back in a string with no spaces. 
For example: 1*1*1&001*002&001*003*003&001... 
The SMX supports 1-, 2-, and 3-digit numeric entries (1*1!, 01*02*02&, or 001*003*003%).

Quick Multiple Tie
Make multiple ties
E+QX2@*X@*X#! 
...X2@*X@*X#$}
Qik]
Make multiple ties with one command 
entry.
Example:
E+Q01*3*4!01*3... 
*5%01*3*6$
}
Qik]
Tie plane 01 input 3 audio and video 
signals to outputs 4 (audio and video), 
5 (video only), and 6 (audio only).
NOTE:  This command activates all I/O switches simultaneously.
NOTES:  
X@ = Input number  01 - <maximum number of inputs> 
  00 = untied 
X# = Output number  01 - <maximum number of outputs> 
X2@ = Plane number 00 - 15 = plane address 
 90 - 99 = virtual plane
