REMOTE CONTROL INTERFACE
When the Status Module is installed in an IMUX 2000 multiplexer, it can read control and status
information under local or remote control. When under remote control, most of the module setup
parameters can only be changed through the RS-232 remote port on the shelf Common Module. See
the IMUX 2000 manual for information on using the remote control interface.
The remote control interface for the Status Module involves two sets of codes: “P” (parameter) codes,
and “S” (status) codes. The Status Module reports itself as a “Type 120” module.
“P” CODES
“P” codes, when used in the parameter field on an SCL “SET” command, allow the user to read
certain parameters on the Status Module by remote control, just like setting DIP switches on a module
under local control. “P” codes also appear in the response to a “CONFIG?” query, providing a list of
the Status Module current parameter settings. A typical Status Module response to a “CONFIG?”
query looks like this:
*OK
FROM NET ADDRESS = 9
CHANNEL CARD 10, TYPE 120
UNDER REMOTE CONTROL
SRVC = ON
P01 = 13 (B00001101)
P02 = 1 (B00000001)
P03 = 2 (B00000010)
P04 = 2 (B00000010)
P05 = 0 (B00000000)
P06 = 0 (B00000000)
P07 = 0 (B00000000);
There are seven “P” codes for the Status Module; “P1” through “P7”. Each “P”code is displayed as a
decimal number from 0 to 255, followed by its eight-digit binary equivalent in parenthesis. Table 3
lists the meaning of all “P” codes for the Status Module.
