Summary

Extron NAVigator is a NAV Pro AV over IP system manager. This spec covers remote control, monitoring, configuration, AV and USB routing, WindoWall control, network configuration, and endpoint command encapsulation using SIS over SSH.

Transport

protocols:
  - tcp
  - http
addressing:
  port: 22023
  base_url: "https://{navigator-address}/"
auth:
  type: null  # UNRESOLVED: source identifies secure SSH control and a Third-Party Control LinkLicense but does not specify SSH credentials or authentication procedure

SIS commands use SSH port 22023. HTTPS defaults to port 443; both ports can be changed to non-overlapping values from 1024 through 65535, or disabled with 0. SIS responses end with carriage return and line feed.

Traits

- routable  # inferred from AV and USB routing commands
- queryable  # inferred from query command examples

Notes

E represents the Escape key in SIS notation, and W can replace it. } represents carriage return without line feed, and | can replace it. A bullet (•) represents a space. Numeric SIS entries may contain one through four digits, with leading zeroes optional. Commands may be concatenated without spaces.

Quick multiple ties and tie-to-all operations apply ties simultaneously. If a quick multiple-tie request contains invalid ties, valid ties are still applied and Qik] is returned.

Endpoint SIS commands must be encapsulated because commands cannot be sent directly to endpoints. Numeric endpoint identifiers require I for inputs or O for outputs.

Default network addresses are 203.0.113.22 for Ethernet over USB and 192.168.253.254/255.255.255.0 for OOB. NAV/PoE uses DHCP by default and self-assigns a 169.254.x.x link-local address if DHCP fails.

Known Gaps

- "required LinkLicense entitlement and SSH authentication procedure are not fully specified in source."
- "source identifies secure SSH control and a Third-Party Control LinkLicense but does not specify SSH credentials or authentication procedure"
- "source does not describe explicit multi-step macros"
- "source provides no safety warnings, interlock procedures, or power-on sequencing requirements"
- "firmware compatibility range, SSH authentication details, LinkLicense requirements, alarm variable definitions, and fault recovery procedures are not fully stated in source."
