Summary
SIS command set for Extron DTP T FB Series switching transmitters (models 332 and 232), controlling input switching (HDMI/VGA), audio routing/mute, EDID management, HDCP authorization, video mute, and VGA picture adjustments via RS-232 (side Remote port) or USB (top Configuration port). 9600 baud, 8-N-1, no flow control.
Transport
protocols:
- serial
serial:
baud_rate: 9600
data_bits: 8
parity: none
stop_bits: 1
flow_control: none
auth:
type: none # inferred: no auth procedure in source
Note: source also references a "top panel Configuration (USB) port" using the same SIS protocol; transport interface type omitted from canonical entry per source silence on USB-specific framing.
Traits
- powerable # inferred: power-on behavior described (copyright message on power)
- routable # inferred: input switching, audio routing commands present
- queryable # inferred: numerous status query commands present
- levelable # inferred: pixel phase, total pixels, H/V start adjustments present
Actions
# SIS protocol: 'E' = Escape (0x1B) prefix; '}' or '|' = CR; ']' = CR/LF; '=' = space.

Notes
- 10-second inter-character timeout: pauses of 10s+ between ASCII characters abort the command silently.
- Verbose mode 2/3 (tagged) wraps all "view" command responses with the command mnemonic prefix (e.g.
Ausw {mode}]instead of bare{mode}]). - Pixel phase, total pixels, H/V start commands use the literal
2prefix to target VGA input 2; no equivalent for HDMI input 1. - EDID value table covers 56 entries spanning DVI-PC, HDMI-PC, and HDMI-HDTV resolutions with 2-channel audio; 03 (1280x720@60) and 50 (720p@60) are the factory-default slots.
- HDCP authorization only applies to the HDMI input (input 1); VGA has no HDCP path.
- Source references a Configuration (USB) port on the top panel using the same SIS protocol; USB-specific transport framing is not documented in this excerpt.
