The CrossPoint 450 Plus switchers are housed in

enclosures that range from 8U to 10U (figure 2-1) to
support their different video format and matrix sizes.

The CrossPoint Ultra switchers are housed in enclosures
that range from 3U to 6U to support their different video
format and matrix sizes.

Smaller matrix sizes within a form factor have fewer input
and/or output connectors. The arrangement of connectors
and features in switchers with different form factors is
different from what is shown in figure 2-1.

Selected SIS Commands

The switchers have Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) commands that
you can use for operation and conguration. You can run these
commands from a PC connected to either of the switcher’s serial
ports or the Ethernet port. See h, i, and l, on pages 2-6 and
2-7, for connection information.

Establishing a network (Ethernet) connection

Establish a network connection as follows:

1. Open a TCP socket to port 23 using the switcher’s IP
address.

Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at five

minutes and periodically issuing the Query (Q) command
to keep the connection active or disconnecting the socket
and reopening the connection when necessary.

Number of connections

A switcher can have up to 200 simultaneous TCP connections,
including all HTTP sockets and Telnet connections. When
the connection limit is reached, the switcher accepts no new
connections until some have been closed. No error message or
indication is given that the connection limit has been reached.
To maximize performance of your switcher, the number of
connections should stay low and unnecessary open sockets
should be closed.

Verbose mode

Telnet connections to a switcher can be used to monitor
for changes that occur on the switcher, such as front panel
operations and SIS commands from other Telnet sockets or a
serial port. For a Telnet session to receive change notices from
the switcher, the Telnet session must be in verbose mode 3. See
the Verbose Mode command on page 4-8. In verbose mode 3,
the Telnet socket reports changes in messages that resemble SIS
command responses.

Host-to-switcher instructions

The switcher accepts SIS (Simple Instruction Set) commands
through either serial port. SIS commands consist of one or more
characters per command eld. They do not require any special
characters to begin or end the command character sequence.
Each switcher response to an SIS command ends with a carriage
return and a line feed (CR/LF =
the response character string. A string is one or more characters.

of SIS commands. For a complete listing, refer to the
