Summary
The Extron DVS 605 is a 5-input audio/video scaler with simultaneous analog (VGA) and digital (HDMI, 3G/HD-SDI on D-models) outputs, controllable via RS-232, USB, and Ethernet (TCP/IP Telnet port 23, HTTP port 80). This spec covers the Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS) command set used for input selection, PIP control, output resolution, HDCP, audio, presets, and device configuration. Factory default Telnet port is 23; factory default web/HTTP port is 80. RS-232 is 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no flow control. Authentication is password-based with administrator and user levels; factory passwords are set to the unit serial number, and a system reset clears them (no password).

Macros
# No explicit multi-step macro sequences documented in the source.
Safety
confirmation_required_for:
- absolute_system_reset # EZQQQ - resets IP to default
- erase_flash_memory # EZFFF
- reset_to_factory_defaults # EZXXX (retains Ethernet)
interlocks: []
# Source contains no explicit safety warnings, electrical interlocks, or power-on sequencing.
Notes
- Extron SIS commands use one or more characters per field; no special start/end delimiters.
Eis the Escape character (0x1B); commands prefixed withEare escape sequences in the SIS protocol.- All SIS responses end with CR/LF (the
]symbol in the manual). - Upper/lower case interchangeable in commands.
- For TCP/IP control, default port is 23 (Telnet) with TCP socket protocol; default web/HTTP port is 80.
- URL-encoded web equivalents shown alongside ASCII commands; the
Wprefix marks URL-encoded form. - HDCP commands only valid on HDMI/DVI inputs and outputs.
- PIP mode disables true seamless switching.
- Audio breakaway ($) not allowed TO an input configured for any digital audio format; video breakaway (&) not allowed FROM such an input (E17 error).
- Genlock offset commands require a DVS 605 D or AD model with SDI genlock currently enabled and locked.
- Factory default IP: 192.168.254.254, subnet mask: 255.255.0.0, MAC prefix: 00-05-A6.
- Telnet port and web port are user-remappable; both can be disabled.
- EdidE/EdidI file import/export operate on the device user file system; PCS software mediates file transfer.
- Commands marked with superscript 24 require administrator login; E14 indicates command invalid for current configuration; E28 indicates file not found.

summary: "All 257 spec actions match verbatim source commands; transport parameters confirmed; only auto-switch (X3&) present in source but not represented in spec. (3 unresolved item(s) noted in Known Gaps.)"
Known Gaps
- "X3&_auto_switch"
- "firmware version range not stated; MAC address default shown as 00-05-A6-xx-xx-xx; full safety/interlock section not present in source"
- "HTTP base path not stated in source"
- "firmware version compatibility not stated; electrical specs (voltage/current/power) absent; detailed physical safety warnings absent"
