Additional Protocol Notes
ASC (ASCII) refers to switcher control using Jupiter ASCII protocol commands originating from an external computer
(e.g, an automation system). When used with Diamond production switchers (as described on page 2−60), the baud rate
must match the hardware setting on the DD production switcher XBAR port (normally 38400). A technical description
of the Jupiter ASCII computer interface protocol is presented in Appendix N.
DTK (Datatek D−2000/2166), HRZ (GVG Horizon), NXS (Nexus), and U96 (9600 baud connection to Utah UDI−1)
all refer to CM 4000 boards controlling one or more of these “remote” (third party) routers. When selected, this entry
will apply to CM odd−numbered ports only. (Hardware installation of these switchers is discussed starting on page 2−11.)
DEC is a custom protocol.
DIM (Diamond) is the protocol used to return mnemonic information to a DD Series production switcher serial port.
The baud rate must match the Diamond hardware setting (normally 38400) (See page 2−60).
