Variables

# UNRESOLVED: no standalone settable parameters documented - all commands are discrete actions

Events

# UNRESOLVED: no unsolicited event notifications documented in source

Macros

# UNRESOLVED: no multi-step macro sequences documented in source

Safety

confirmation_required_for: []
interlocks: []
# UNRESOLVED: no safety warnings or interlock procedures in source

Notes

Input 7 (VGA) and Input 8 (HDMI1) are documented as out of letter sequence to remain compatible with legacy SunBrite RS-232 command sets. Input 2 is marked NA (not available). Input 10 is Tuner.
