TLX Matrix Switch ASCII API V5 10 Rev. I, January 2019
XINSTALLED
Returns an inventory of installed I/O cards. A zero means the card is not installed and a one
means the card is installed. The number of cards determines the number of zeros and ones returned
and the number of cards varies for each TLX model. The cards are listed from left to right, with the
leftmost digit used for the card that has port 1.
Format: XINSTALLED
Example Results: R0006OK111 TLX48
R0023OK00000000000100000000 TLX320
XMAXCARDS (Modified from Version 4)
Returns the maximum number of I/O cards in the switch.
This is a change from V4 of the API. V4 returned half the number of I/O cards, except for the MX48
which returned 3 (the actual number of cards).
Bit 3 of XOPTIONS may be used to determine if XMAXCARDS returns half the number of cards or
the actual number of cards (the default). See XOPTIONS, pg. 10.
