Notes
- Symbol legend from source (preserve when building literal frames):
]= CR + LF (hex 0D 0A); marks end of every response.}= CR only (hex 0D) on RS-232/Telnet; replaced by|(pipe) for Web (HTTP) commands.E= Escape (hex 1B) prefix for many commands; replaced byWfor Web commands.- Spaces in Web URLs encode as
%2B(per source — note unusual mapping); plus encodes as%2Btoo.
- Error response codes appear inline in responses:
- E01 invalid input channel, E09 invalid function, E10 invalid command, E11 invalid preset, E12 invalid output/window, E13 value out of range, E14 invalid for this configuration, E17 invalid command for signal type, E24 privilege violation, E26 too many users, E27 invalid event number, E28 bad filename / file not found.
- Default IP 192.168.254.254 / subnet 255.255.0.0 / DHCP off.
- Telnet port 23; HTTP port 80; both remappable via MT / MH commands (and a Direct Access port via MD, default 2001).
- Default RS-232 config: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no flow control. Range 2400-115200 baud; data bits 7 or 8; stop bits 1 or 2; parity O/E/N/M/S; flow H/S/N.
- Window selector
X50@: 0 = all windows (allowed only for input selection, Freeze, and window muting); 1-4 = specific window (MGP 462xi only supports windows 1-2; MGP 464 supports 1-4). - Input selector
X50): 1-19. - Test patterns 10 (Quad Split) and 11 (Pip Images) are not available on MGP 462xi models per source.
- Two RS-232 channels exist: rear 9-pin D (port
01, also configurable as RS-422) and front Config 2.5 mm TRS (port02, RS-232 only). - Verbose mode default differs by transport: 0 for Telnet, 1 for RS-232/422 connections.
- Send-data-string (
RS) command on bi-directional port allows the MGP to act as a serial relay for downstream devices.
