Protocol 3000
The SL-280 Master / Room Controller Kramer Control Brain can be operated using the Kramer
Protocol 3000 serial commands.

.
The framing of the command varies according to
the terminal communication
software.
You can enter commands directly using terminal communication software (e.g., Hercules) by
connecting a PC to the serial or Ethernet port on SL-280. To enter CR press the Enter key (LF
is also sent but is ignored by the command parser).
Commands sent from various non-Kramer controllers (e.g., Crestron) may require special
coding for some characters (such as, /X##). For more information, refer to your controller’s
documentation.
