1.1 A Word on Video/Audio Switchers
A video/audio switcher usually switches between several sources (inputs) and one or more acceptors (outputs).
A switcher that allows several inputs to be connected to several outputs simultaneously is called a Matrix
Switcher. Switchers may be of the electronic or mechanical type. Most matrices are of the active electronic type,
with many crosspoints. Vertical Interval Switching, frequently used in video, ensures that the transition from
one video source to another (such as switching between two genlocked cameras) is smooth and without
interference. The switching and changeover is done during the blanked vertical interval period, when the
transition is hidden.
Genlocked means synchronized so that the color and phase information from each source is identical. Thus
switching is done with no interference, no rolling, no color loss and no jumping on the screen. Since the
Syncs come with the same timing, all the information is identical and the transition between one source and
the other is smooth.
Vertical Interval Switching is needed when recording or transmitting a video program involving several video
sources, as in live broadcast, to ensure clean, undisturbed picture transitions.
Matrices and switchers may sometimes be RS-232 or RS-485/422 controlled. Each of these options is a way of
remotely controlling a video/audio device (switcher, SEG, etc.) using a PC with a serial port, or another device
that uses a similar communication protocol.
The range consists of a number of models, having between twelve and four inputs, as indicated by the model
name. The audio output is either balanced or unbalanced. Switching is effortless and is performed during the
vertical interval of source #1, or of the video available at the external Sync socket. The switchers can be
controlled by touch buttons on the front panel, by a PC, via the switcher's built-in RS-232 and/or RS-485/422
communication ports, or by contact closure via a remote socket on the back panel.

All the models can be interconnected in a variety of ways. For example, two VS-1211 units become 24x1 or
12x2, etc. Three or four VS-1211 units, depending on whether the system is RGB or RGBS, become a 12x1
video component switcher. Finally, the video signal bandwidth is 225MHz (typical), which permits the
switchers to be used in the most demanding applications.
1.2 Factors Affecting Quality of Results
There are many factors affecting the quality of results when signals are transmitted from a source to an acceptor:
‹
‹
Connection cables - Low quality cables are susceptible to interference, they degrade signal quality due to
poor matching and cause elevated noise levels. They should therefore be of the best quality.
Sockets and connectors of the sources and acceptors - So often ignored, they should be of highest
quality, since "Zero Ohm" connection resistance is the target. Sockets and connectors also must match the
required impedance (75ohms in video). Cheap, low quality connectors tend to rust, thus causing breaks in the
signal path.
‹
‹
Amplifying circuitry - Must have quality performance when the desired end result is high linearity, low
distortion and low noise operation.
Distance between sources and acceptors - Plays a major role in the final result. For long distances (over
15 meters) between sources and acceptors, special measures should be taken in order to avoid cable losses.
These include using higher quality cables or adding line amplifiers.
‹
Interference from neighboring electrical appliances - These can have an adverse effect on signal quality.
Balanced audio lines are less prone to interference, but unbalanced audio and video lines should be installed
far from any mains power cables, electric motors, transmitters, etc. even when the cables are shielded.

INSTALLATION
6.1 Rackmounting
Each of the amplifiers included in this manual may be rackmounted in a standard 19” (1U) EIA rack assembly
and includes rack “ ears” at the ends of the front panel. (The optional VS-2000 controller requires 2U of rack
height, at 3.5".) These devices do not require any specific spacing above or below the unit for ventilation. To
rack mount any of the switchers, simply place the unit’ s rack ears against the rack rails of the rack, and insert
standard screws through each of the four corner holes in the rack ears.
7.
CONNECTING TO VIDEO DEVICES
Video sources and output devices (such as monitors, projectors or recorders) may be connected to the switchers
through the BNC type connectors located on the back of the unit. Please keep in mind that the input signal
format must match that of the output signal format. (Example: If input is Composite video, then output is
Composite video.) All signal connections that use more than one cable interconnecting between devices should
be of equal length. (Example: R, G, B cables between a camera and the switcher should be equal in length).
NOTE
The switchers described in this manual are very similar. The connections of the VS-1211 and the VS-1201xl
are described and may be applied accordingly to the others.
7.1 Connecting To the VS-1211/1201xl/1001xlm
Video sources and output devices connected to the VS-1211/1201xl/1001xlm models support composite/single
component video signal types, via BNC connectors.
8.
CONNECTING TO AUDIO DEVICES
8.1 Connecting To the VS-1211
Audio sources and output devices (such as amplifiers or recorders) may be connected to the VS-1211 switcher
through the snap fit terminal blocks located on the back of the unit.
8.2 Connecting To the VS-1201xl/1001xlm
Audio sources and output devices (such as amplifiers or recorders) may be connected to the VS-1201xl switcher
through the RCA type connectors located on the back of the unit.
9.
DIP SWITCHES, JUMPERS AND TRIMMERS
Consider the VS-1211 as an example of all the switchers in the family. It switches video and balanced stereo
audio simultaneously. As mentioned previously, there are three options for operating the switcher. All are
available without removing the switcher cover.
‹
‹
‹
It can be operated by touching one of the front panel switches.
It can be operated by a remote PC via the RS-232 or RS-485/422 connectors on its rear panel.
It can be operated using the contact closure option.
9.1 DIP Switches
The DIP switch (see Table 3) on the rear panel should be set when the switcher is operated via the RS-232 or
RS-485/422 connector, or when it is interconnected with other switchers. These switches allow proper
configuration of the control signals received and transmitted through the RS-232 control port. Each of the “ VS”
switchers allows master/slave configurations. This allows the switchers to operate independently, or in
conjunction with each other.

9.2 Jumpers, their Uses and Set-up Requirements
The switcher has additional adjustments and settings. These include the internal jumpers.
WARNING!
Mains voltage is accessible inside the switcher, so always turn off the switcher and
remove its power cable from the mains socket before removing its cover.
The jumper locations are illustrated in Figure 3, and their functional operation is described below:
‹
Each switcher input has its own internal jumper. In the VS-1211, these jumpers are numbered J21 to J33
and they are factory located in the position that provides a 75ohm input termination. If the 75ohm
termination is not required, the jumper must be relocated to its alternate position (floating on the pin
remote from the input socket and not connected in any circuit). The particular input is now "High-Z" (not
75ohm terminated) and may be used for looping.
When two VS-1211 switchers are to be interconnected to provide a 12 input, 2 output (12x2)
configuration by looping Input #1 of switcher #1 to Input #1 of switcher #2, etc., J35 must be located in
its alternate position in all of the switchers. This is also the case for configurations 12x3, 12x4, etc., using
3, 4, or more switchers.
‹
‹
‹
When two VS-1211 switchers are to be interconnected to provide a 24 input, 1 output (24x1)
configuration, J35 must be located in its factory set position in all of the switchers. This is also the case
for configurations 36x1, 48x1, etc., using 3, 4, or more switchers.
Jumper J20 is used to define the Sync video source for all the switcher inputs, so that Vertical Interval
Switching can be assured. The jumpers are factory located for an External Sync source. If the sync of the
video source on Input #1 is preferred, then J20 must be relocated to its alternate position in any one of
the switchers.
When switchers are to be interconnected, the switcher that contains the active video sync source must be
identified to all the switchers so that it can be sensed by all of them and thus ensure Vertical Interval
Switching throughout. J34 is the jumper to be used for this task. It is factory located to identify the
switcher in which it sits. Thus, in the switcher to which the active sync source will be connected, the
jumper must be left in the factory located position. In all the other switchers in the interconnected
complex, J34 must be relocated in its alternate position.

9.3 The Internal Trimmers
The trimmers are internally located and are accessed through holes in the switcher base (see section 14.2 “ Weak
Switcher Video Signals”). These allow you, if necessary, to adjust the switcher output signal level and cable
compensation.
10. CONTROLLING THE SWITCHER
The VS-1211/411 and VS-1201xl/401xlm switcher families can be controlled by the following methods:
‹
‹
‹
By touch buttons on the front panel (see section 12.2 "Operating an Individual Switcher").
By direct remote contact closure via the DB-15 socket (a switch panel that the customer rigs up).
By PC or other remote control via the switcher's RS-232 or RS-485/422 connector.
There are three different options for the RS-232 or RS-485/422 remote control:
1. A PC that communicates with the switcher directly.
2. A Serial remote control unit such as the KRAMER VS-2000 or VS-3000 (see section10.1) or the VS-1N/P
(see section 10.2) combination.
3. Any RS-232 or RS-485/422 controller, which is programmed according to the protocol of the switcher (see
section 15 “ Protocol Used for VS-1211 Communication").
10.1 The VS-2000 System
The KRAMER VS-2000 is a Programmable Remote Control Unit, designed for use in video production and
duplication studios and in live broadcasting and editing configurations. It provides access to and control of up to
six groups of KRAMER switchers from a single point. A group can comprise several interconnected switchers
which, in turn, permit access to various pieces of equipment (monitors, mixers, editors, VCRs, etc). The VS-
2000 can be controlled by pressing its front panel touch buttons, or via a PC using the RS-232 control port.
KRAMER PC control software is provided with the BC-2000. Since new switcher types are constantly being
added and older types upgraded, KRAMER provides a small door marked "EPROM" on the VS-2000 rear panel
for easy replacement of the existing chip with an updated chip. This will contain the appropriate information for
the new and modified switchers. KRAMER will make updated chips available periodically. The VS-2000 can
store and recall preferred configurations for convenience in studio control.
10.2 The VS-1N/VS-1P System
The VS-1N RS-232 Remote Controller interfaces between any KRAMER RS-232 controlled switcher of the
VS-1211/411 series, and a remotely located simple switching assembly. By pressing one of the remote switches,
a connection command is sent to the switcher via the VS-1N and the RS-232 link. The VS-1N permits remote
control of a KRAMER switcher, without interfering with local control by the built-in touch buttons on the
switcher itself, and without using a PC. In fact, the VS-1N is a translator, simulating a computer to the switcher
via its RS-232 port. It accepts mechanical contact switching from the remote point using a KRAMER VS-1P
satellite unit or a switch panel that the customer rigs up himself. The VS-1P is an optional, 24-switch assembly
connected to the VS-1N via a 25 wire flat cable, equipped with the appropriate connectors, and may be
purchased separately as a small single unit. An alternative option is the VS-1P2, a dual VS-1P unit, in a 19-inch
rack configuration. The VS-1N/VS-1P set-up is an ideal remote control for use in video production studios, in
live broadcasting configurations, in CCTV and in security applications. The remote connector socket pinout and
functional description are shown in Figure 4.

11. CONNECTING TO A PC
To connect directly to a PC without using the KRAMER Null-Modem Adapter, make connections as in Figure
1. To use the KRAMER Adapter instead (recommended), plug one end into the PC's serial port, then connect
from the other end to the switcher using a 9-pin flat-cable. Alternatively, connect only pins 2, 3, and 5 from the
Adapter to the switcher (one-to-one connection).
11.1 New Protocol 2000
All the switcher described in this manual have built-in a dual communication protocol option. The standard
protocol described in this manual allows simple and fast control of a single switcher or several machines
connected together. The new communication protocol named PROTOCOL 2000, allows the user to control
several different switchers or switchers/matrix groups from one screen. The PC software backing up the new
protocol is called K-ontrol, allowing viewing and monitoring four different machines, which have protocol
2000 built-in from one screen. The new protocol allows more control over the switchers, but is more
complicated than the current protocol supported by the K-Switch software.
The full set of software and documentation is available on the software CD and on Kramer’ s website free for
download. The new software package allows the user to install all versions of software suitable for the machine
used. For the machines described in this manual, both the K-Switch and the K-ontrol software may be installed.
11.1.1 Changing communication protocols
You can work with one of 2 protocols. To work with PROTOCOL 2000, simultaneously press buttons 1 and 4
on the front panel and turn the machine off for at least 5 seconds. When you turn on the machine, it will use
PROTOCOL 2000. Alternatively, you can work with the old protocol. To do so, simultaneously press buttons 1
and 3 on the front panel and turn the machine off for at least 5 seconds. When you turn on the machine, it will
use the old protocol.
11.1.2 Additional software options
The latest version of the K-switch program allows the user to convert any of the switchers described in this
manual to a very sophisticated sequential switcher with no extra cost. The program allows full control on the
switching sequence, dwell time for each input etc. The latest software upgrades are available at Kramer’ s web
12. USING THE SWITCHER
12.1 Powering on the Switcher
The switcher should only be powered on after all connections are completed and all source devices have been
powered on. Do not attempt to connect or disconnect any video, audio or control signals to the switcher while it
is powered on. The switcher may be powered on by pressing the toggle switch on the far-left front panel to the
up position. In the up position, the toggle switch glows, and the active input button illuminates as well.
12.2 Operating an Individual Switcher
NOTE
The operation of all the switchers described in this manual is similar. The VS-1211 operation is described and may
be applied accordingly to the others.
Operation of the VS-1211 switcher units by local control is as follows:
1. Connect up to twelve video/audio-stereo sources to the input sockets of the switcher.
2. Connect a video/audio-stereo acceptor to the output socket of the switcher.

12.2.1 Selecting an Input on the Switchers
Input selection on the switchers described in this manual is simply made by pressing buttons marked “ 1”, “ 2”
etc. on the front panel, or by operating your preferred remote device (see "KRAMER Switcher Remote Control
Options"). These buttons correspond to the input connections as marked on the back panel.
12.2.2 Selecting the Proper Sync Format
The Sync will be provided from an external video source. If you wish, instead, to use the sync of the video
source connected to Input #1, you must make an internal jumper adjustment as described previously (see section
9.2).
12.2.3 Using the VS-2000
Connect, as required, each of the VS -2000 ports to each of the switcher groups. Perform the preset procedure to
identify the switchers to the VS -2000 before you activate the system. You can control the switcher groups from
the panel touch buttons. You can also control the VS -2000 by a remote computer connected to the "To PC"
connector on the VS -2000. You will see on the screen a complex of switchers covering all the switcher groups
connected to the VS -2000. You can address and control each of them from the PC.
12.3 Using the PC Control Software
The switcher comes with K-Switch control software for Windows 95 and a booklet describing its operation. To
operate interconnected switchers via RS-232 and the KRAMER K-Switch software, perform the following
steps, in order, before connecting the power cables:
1. Set up the Dipswitch on each switcher in accordance with "Table of DIP Switch Settings" ( Table 3,
Section 9) and mark them accordingly for future reference.
2. Set up the jumpers as described in "Jumpers, Their Uses and Set-up Requirements" (Section 9.2).
3. Connect the first switcher to the second switcher via their RS-485 communication ports (connect "A" to
"A", and "B" to "B"). Similarly, continue the connection from the second to the third, and so on.
4. Connect the first switcher to the PC's COM port, via the null-modem adapter provided (see Note below
and Figure 1.
5. Make sure that the RS-232 cable is not more than 30 feet long.
6. If several machines are looped, interconnect as described in the relevant section below (12.4, 12.5, 12.6, or
12.7)
7. Connect the power cable of each switcher to the mains and turn them ON.
8. Activate the computer and the KRAMER K-Switch software. Then click the mouse button at the
appropriate location on the monitor display to operate all the switchers simultaneously.
NOTE
The KRAMER null-modem adapter is a small plug with two connectors: a DB-9 on one side and a DB-25 or DB-9 on
the other. We provide it with all switchers that have RS-232 ports. It interfaces between the DB-9 connector on the
switcher and the connector on the PC. Its function is to convert the PC output to a null-modem output and permit two
way communication between the switcher and the PC. This is effected by the interconnections within the plug.
12.4 Adding Outputs
Two VS-1211 switchers may be interconnected to function as a 12x2 switcher by connecting the same
numbered sources to the same numbered inputs of both switchers. However, before doing so, each switcher
input has an internal jumper that must be properly set up to avoid double loading.
Proceed as follows:
1. After disconnecting the switcher from the mains voltage, carefully remove the cover of the first switcher
that is to receive the source signals, remove jumpers J21 to J33 (for VS-1211) and relocate them in their
alternate positions (floating on the pin remote from the input socket and not connected in any circuit).
2. The input impedance of each input is now "High-Z" (not 75ohm terminated) and is therefore suitable for
this application. In the second switcher, the terminating jumpers stay in place, providing 75ohm
terminations. Thus, you do not have to open the second switcher. Carefully close the first switcher.

3. Connect the output from video source #1 to the first switcher input #1, then to the second switcher input #1
using a T or Y connector. Repeat for source #2 and input #2, etc.
4. Connect one acceptor to the output of one switcher and another acceptor to the output of the other
switcher. You now have a twelve input switcher complex with two outputs.
5. You can continue to expand the number of outputs by adding a third switcher, etc., to obtain a 12x3
switcher, etc. In such cases, relocate to their alternate position, all input jumpers in all switchers except the
last, so that all the lines are properly terminated by 75ohm. Audio can be connected in a similar manner,
but you do not have to open switchers and remove jumpers, just connect the wires from audio input to
audio input. There is no need for special termination since the input impedance is high.
6. For RS-232 control of the system, connect the PC to the Master switcher via the null modem adapter.
7. Each switcher in the configuration should be allocated a unique machine number and the "Reply" option
should be set to ON (see Table 3: DIP Switch Settings). Jumper J35 should be relocated to its alternate
position.
8. The system may also be controlled via its RS-485 port (see section 12.3 above).
A typical switchers setup where additional outputs are added is described in Figure 5.
Figure 5: Connecting Two Switchers for adding More Outputs
12.5 Adding Inputs
Two or more VS-1211 switchers can be interconnected to function as a 24x1 or a 36x1 etc., switcher as follows:
1. Make sure that jumper J35 in at least one of the switchers is in its factory located position (See Figure 3).
If necessary, carefully remove the covers of the switchers to do so.
2. Connect a straight, 9 wire flat cable from the "To Next" DB-9 connector on the first switcher to the "To
Next" DB-9 connector on the second switcher, from the second to the third and so on, until all the required
switchers are interconnected. Make sure that the interconnecting lengths of cable are as short as possible.
3. Interconnect the switchers via their RS-485 ports ("A" to "A", "B" to "B", etc.).
4. Assign a unique machine number to each of the switchers. Set DIP switches as in "Table of DIP Switch
Settings" (see section 9).
5. On all the units, set the Dipswitch "Reply" option to ON.
6. In order to feed the sync information from one of the units to all the others, interconnect the units via their
"To Next" connectors using a flat cable. In this case, jumper J34 must be set in its factory located position
in the unit with the Sync source, but in its alternate position in the others.

7. For RS-232 control of the system, connect the PC to the Master switcher via the null modem adapter. Each
switcher in the configuration should be allocated a unique machine number and the "Reply" option should
be to “ ON” (see Table 3, "Table of DIP Switch Settings"). The system may also be controlled via RS-485.
8. Connect the sources to the appropriate switcher inputs.
9. Connect the power cable of each switcher to the mains supply and turn ON each switcher.
10. You now have a 24 or 36, etc. input switcher complex, with one output.
12.6 Video Component and YC Switching
A most important application for interconnected switchers is in professional component video switching, where
smooth switching is required, free from transient effects. Four switchers of the same type are required for RGBS
systems, three for RGB or YUV systems and two for YC systems. The following describes how to set up the
RGB video component application with five professional video sources, each with Red, Green and Blue (RGB)
outputs (Sync on Green).
NOTE
In the following description, "R", "G", "B" refers to three different switchers required for the RGB
implementation.
1. Interconnect three, same model switchers of the VS-1211 family via their RS-485 ports ("A" to "A", "B" to
"B", etc.).
2. On all the units except one, set the Dipswitch "Reply" option to OFF.
3. Set all the switchers to the same Machine number (Dipswitch).
4. If RS-232 control is required, connect the PC via the null modem adapter to the unit in which the "Reply"
option is set to ON (the system may also be controlled via RS-485).
5. To synchronize the machines (for vertical interval switching) to input#1 of the G unit, daisy-chain from
G's input #1 to the ext. sync input of R and continue to the ext. sync input of B (using "T" connectors).
Place the following jumpers in their alternate positions: J22 and J20 in the G unit and J21 in the R unit.
Also, ensure that the following jumpers are in their factory default positions: J34 in all the units; J20 in the
R and the B units; and J21 in the B unit. To synchronize using an external sync signal, configure R and B
as described above, but this time daisy chaining from G's ext. sync. Connect the external sync to G and set
G's jumper J20 and J22 to their factory default positions and J21 to its alternate position.
6. Now connect the R, G and B outputs of camera #1 to input #1 on each of the switchers respectively, those
of camera #2 to input #2 on each of the switchers respectively, and continue until all five camera R, G and
B outputs have been connected to the appropriate switcher inputs, in the same order. Let us call them
switchers R, G and B.
7. Connect the single outputs of switchers R, G and B to the R, G and B inputs, respectively, of a professional
acceptor, such as a monitor or VCR.
8. Turn the power ON and select the input number to be switched to the acceptor.
12.7 Controlling Several Independent Switchers Via a Single PC Port
1. Assign unique machine numbers to each switcher.
2. Connect via the null modem cable from the PC to the "Master" machine.
3. Interconnect the switchers via their RS-485 ports ("A" to "A", "B" to "B", etc.).
13. TAKING CARE OF YOUR SWITCHER
Do not locate your switcher in an environment where it is susceptible to dust or moisture. These may damage
the electronics, and cause erratic operation or failure. Do not locate your switcher where temperature and
humidity may be excessive. Do not clean your switcher with abrasives or strong cleaners. Doing so may remove
or damage the finish, or may allow moisture to build up. Take care not to allow dust or particles to build up
inside unused or open connectors.
14. TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTES:
1.
Please note that if the output signal is disturbed or interrupted by very strong external electromagnetic interference, it
should return and stabilize when such interference ends. If not, turn the power switch off and on again to reset the machine.
If the recommended actions still do not result in satisfactory operation, please consult your KRAMER Dealer.

properly. Video signals connected to the input of your switcher should be of an
identical signal format at the output of your source. Video signals at the output
of your switcher should be of an identical signal format as at the input of your
display or recorder.
2.
3.
Confirm that any other switchers in the signal path have the proper input and/or
output selected.
Use the Video Tester to test the video path leading to/from your switcher (see
section 4.1 " Video Tester")
1.
2.
Verify that the video line is well interfaced through 75ohm impedance,
otherwise it results in a video level that is too high or too dim when looping is
performed and the termination switches are not in proper position.
Confirm that the connecting cables are of high quality, properly built and
terminated with 75ohm BNC connectors. Check level controls located on your
source input device or output display or recorder.
Video level is too high or too dim.
Weak switcher input signals
The switcher contains two internal trimmers, accessed via two holes in the base of
the switcher. These allow, if necessary, to adjust switcher output signal level. For
example, if you are using a long cable with heavy losses, you can compensate for it
by fine tuning the signal using the two trimmers. One trimmer adjusts the gain of
the whole video signal and the other adjusts only the high frequencies of the video
which have been degraded by a low quality cable. The hole closer to the power
socket controls the cable compensation the other controls the video level.
WARNING! Do not use the trimmers except in cases where the cable losses
result in poor resolution of detail or when the whole signal level crashes.
Once they have been touched, the accurate signal transparencies that have been
fine-tuned in the factory are lost. To readjust to the original signal status you need
a stable signal generator and a good quality signal analyzer.

14.6 Switching Malfunctions
Problem
Remedy
The switcher succeeds in switching
a number of sources then fails to
switch one
Malfunction in the particular source or cable assembly.
NOTE: The most common failure mode in transferring the signal of an audio
source is a break in the connecting wire.
Disconnect the source from a channel that is switching successfully and connect
the suspect source to it. If the channel continues to switch successfully, then
there is something wrong with the switcher or the suspect source was not
connected properly. If it does not continue to switch successfully, then there is
something wrong with the source or cable assembly. Check them.
The switcher turns ON but will not
switch at all
One of the two flat cables leading from the main board to the control board may
be disconnected and the switch command is not being transferred to the switcher.

14.7 Vertical Interval
Problem
Remedy
The switcher is switching, but there
are transitional effects when using
genlocked sources. The picture
jumps and rolls, and the color is lost
until the acceptor (a VCR, for
example) has readjusted itself to the
new color information.
There is no vertical interval Sync source for switching. It should be available
either on video input #1 or on an external genlocked source as a live video or a
live black burst signal. Which one, will depend on certain jumper settings.
Turn OFF the power switch, remove the power cable from the mains socket and
carefully remove the cover of the switcher. Carefully remove the audio board by
unscrewing the four upper board screws. The upper board can now be raised with
ease. Find jumper J20 (also J34 in an interconnected configuration) and set up
the Sync source in accordance with "Jumpers, Their Uses and Set-up
Requirements" (see section 9.2).
15. PROTOCOL USED FOR VS-1211/1201xl COMMUNICATION
The protocol used for communication between the PC and the Master VS-1211/1201xl is defined as follows:
MSB
N7
LSB
N0
N6
N5
N4
N3
N2
N1
Where:
N7 is used for communication between the Slave and the Master only and is always 0 for communication with
the PC.
N6N5N4 is the binary value of the Machine we are addressing minus one, e.g., if we wish to address the Master
(Machine 1 by definition), then N6N5N4 = 000, if we wish to address Machine 6, then N6N5N4 = 101.
N3N2N1N0 is the binary value of the input to be selected, i.e. N3N2N1N0 = 0111 is equivalent to pressing
switch 7 on the front panel.
Several special codes are also valid:
N3N2N1N0 = 1101 requests that the Machine being addressed sends its present status to the PC, i.e. which
input is selected on its front panel.
N3N2N1N0 = 1110 is an "OK" handshake, i.e. confirmation that the instruction was received by the addressed
Machine. (If the addressed Machine is not present, then this confirmation is not sent to the PC).
Information sent from the Master to the PC is done using the same format, i.e.:
0
Machine Number -1
N6N5N4
New Switch Status
N3N2N1N0
N7
The rate of data transfer is always 9600 baud, with no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit.
