Video SEND_COMMANDs (Cont.)
VIDOUT_RES_REF
Sets the resolution and refresh rate of the video output ports. Invalid combinations are ignored by
the All-In-One
Presentation Switcher.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,”’VIDOUT_RES_REF-<horizontal>x<vertical>,<refresh-rate>’”
Variables:horizontal = An integer value representing the horizontal.vertical = An integer value repre-
senting the vertical. May have an additional qualifier such as ‘i’ or ‘p’.refresh-rate = An integer value
representing the refresh rate.
Example:
SEND_COMMAND VIDEO_OUTPUT_1,”’VIDOUT_RES_REF-1280x1024,60’”
For a list of supported resolutions, see the Appendix B - Output Resolutions on page 137.
?VIDOUT_SCALE
Requests to see which scaling mode the video output ports are using.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>, “’?VIDOUT_SCALE’”
Example:
SEND_COMMAND VIDEO_OUTPUT_1,”’?VIDOUT_SCALE’”
Returns a COMMAND string of the form:
VIDOUT_SCALE-<scale>
VIDOUT_SCALE
Sets the scaling mode for the video output ports.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,”’VIDOUT_SCALE-<scale>’”
Variables:scale = auto or manual
Example:
SEND_COMMAND VIDEO_OUTPUT_1,”’VIDOUT_SCALE-AUTO’”
?VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY
Requests the current sleep delay setting for the video output ports.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>, “’?VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY’”
Example:
SEND_COMMAND VIDEO_OUTPUT_1,”’?VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY’”
Returns a COMMAND string of the form:
VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY-<seconds>
VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY
Sets a time delay to automatically turn off the video output ports. The default sleep delay is 30
seconds.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,”’VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY-<seconds>’”
Variables:seconds = 0-32737
Example:
SEND_COMMAND VIDEO_OUTPUT_1,”’VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY-300’”
Sets the sleep delay on the video output port 1 to 300 seconds.
?VIDOUT_TESTPAT
Requests the test pattern setting for the video output port.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>, “’?VIDOUT_TESTPAT’”
Example:
SEND_COMMAND VIDEO_OUTPUT_1,”’?VIDOUT_TESTPAT’”
Returns a COMMAND string of the form:
VIDOUT_TESTPAT-<pattern>
See the VIDOUT_TESTPAT command for the list of test patterns.
VIDOUT_TESTPAT
Sets the test pattern to display for the video output port.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>, “’VIDOUT_TESTPAT-<pattern>’”
Variables:pattern = Off, Color Bar, Grill 1:1, Border, Gray Ramp, SMPTE Bar, Logo 1, Logo 2, Logo 3
(These options are *not* case sensitive.)
Example:
SEND_COMMAND VIDEO_OUTPUT_1,”’VIDOUT_TESTPAT-Color Bar’”
Sets the test pattern to display to ‘Color Bar’.
