  • Each received command is responded to for positive receipt of command acknowledgement.
  • Custom command protocol designed to enable the A/B Switch unit to respond per command acknowledge receipt of command and provide status information per command request.
  • RS232 multi-drop configuration for monitored data on ports A and B.
  • Each Switch has a programmable dip switch to create its unique address/identity.
  • Commands include CHANGE switch position, QUERY switch position status, and LOCKOUT/UNLOCK front panel control.
