7-1. Outline (DVS-128/HDS-X3000 Series)
The S-BUS protocol is extended of its virtual matrix size from 512 to 1024.
At the same time the following functions are changed.
. Number of SOURCE/DEST TYPEs is extended from 16 to 32.
. Selection of either 1024 x 1024 x 8 level or 1024 x 512 x 16 level is added.
. Number of the GLOBAL PHANTOM is reduced from 4093 to 2800.
. The multi source assignment function is added.
. Number of DESCRIPTION NAME is extended from 1024 to 2048.
. Number of the Tie Line signals is increased from 4 to 255.
In the following description, the product that supports the virtual matrix size 512 is called the S-BUS P1
type, and the product that supports the virtual matrix size 1024 is called the S-BUS P2 type.
The S-P2 has the higher compatibility with the S-P1 but has the several limitations.
The S-P2 is realized by extending the type number of the terminal name from 16 to 32, and by changing
the data structure of the terminal names. The 16 types of the terminal number data that are used in the S-
P1, do not have compatibility with the 32 types of terminal number data that are used in the S-P2. There-
fore, the S-P2 has two types of data i.e., both the 16 type data and the 32 type data for each terminal of
terminal number 1 to 512. The 16 type data needs to be used for the terminal numbers of 1 to 512 when
the S-P1 UMD and the remote control panel are used in the system. The 32 type data needs to be used for
the terminal numbers of 513 to 1024.
When all of the UMD and the remote control panel within the system is of the S-P2 type, the terminal
numbers of 1 to 512 must be set to the 32 type data.
When use of the remote control panels of the S-P1 and S-P2 types are mixed, use of the S-P1 remote
control panel is limited within the range of terminal numbers from 1 to 512. In such a case, the S-P2
remote control panel can handle the 32 type data with the terminal numbers of 513 to 1024.
