Command and Response
ȩ {:TPS#@=?}
Ȩ (TPS#@=<mod>;<eth>;<cmod>;<pwr>;<upl>;<qual>;<err>;<len>;<rid>;<tmp>)CrLf
Example
ȩ {:tps#1@so=?}
Ȩ (TPS#1@SO=H;1;H;0;0;17161617;23222020;0;0384;38;)CrLf
The state of the 1st output is: HDBaseT mode is selected, Ethernet is enabled.
Setting the Parameters
Command and Response
ȩ {:TPS#@=<mod>;<eth>}
Ȩ (TPS#@<mod>;<eth>;<cmod>;<pwr>;<upl>;<qual>;<err>;<len>;<rid>;<tmp>)CrLf
Example
ȩ {:tps#1@so=L;x}
Ȩ (TPS#1@SO=L;1;H;0;0;17161617;23222020;0;0384;38;)CrLf
The TPS mode of the selected port is set to Longreach, the Ethernet setting was not changed. The response
shows the new values. Use the 'x' character to keep the actual value of a parameter.
Parameters
Parameter Description Parameter Values
<inout> Input or output port number Port number in 1- or 2-digit ASCII format (01, 3, 04, etc.)
<> Input or output port type
I = input
O= output
<mod> Mode of the selected TPS port
= HDBaseT
L = Longreach
A = Automatic
1 = Low power 1, RS-232 only
2 = Low power 2, RS-232 + Ethernet
<eth>
Ethernet status of the selected
port
0 = Ethernet is disabled
1 = Ethernet is enabled (default)
2-15 = reserved for future use
<tmp> Temperature [integer] Measured temperature of the board in Celsius.
Read-only Parameters
<cmod>
The current mode of the
selected TPS port
E: Ethernet fallback
1: Low power 1, RS-232 only
2: Low power 2, RS-232+ETH
L: Longreach
: HDBaseT
0 (zero): Link is not present
- (hyphen): The chip is under external process
(e.g. during boot, fw update)
<pwr>
Remote power source presence
(all ports carry the same state)
0 (zero): Not connected
1: Connected
<upl>
Ethernet uplink status
(all ports carry the same state)
0 (zero): Ethernet is inactive
1: Ethernet is active
<qual>
[HEXA number]
Measured values give information about the quality of the
link
<err>
Maximum measured error
[HEXA number]
Measured values give information about the quality of the
cable.
<len>
The measured length of the
cable (meters) – informative
only
Valid for CAT5e cable
Measured length of the link cable. If the cable is shorter
than 20m the response is 0. If the cable is longer than
110m the response is 1000. If there is no data the
response is 0, as well.
<rid>
[HEXA number]
Lightware devices have a unique ID for identifying each
other.
<tmp> Temperature [integer] Measured temperature of the board in Celsius.
