MSC0603 OPERATION MANUAL - v1.0 5/7/02 2002 - INLINE, INC.
Dipswitch settings
Dipswitch settings change according to the standard used. Higher standards require a different
signal type. Dipswitches make subtle adjustments to that signal type. Configure the dipswitch
settings according to the following table.
Serial Format Dipswitch Settings
RS-232* 123 OFF
RS-422/RS-485 123 ON
*Factory default
Creating Presets
Once you create a switch or patch through the Output-Input method, you can assign it a Preset
number. This is a valuable, timesaving feature and allows unskilled operators the ability to
duplicate complex patches without having to actually configure the patch.
To create a preset:
1. Create the desired configuration of input/output connections.
2. Press the Preset button.
3. Press any one of the Input or Output select buttons to pick a storage location for this
preset.
4. Be sure to label or notate each Preset you make.
5. To recall a preset, press the Preset button, followed by the input/output button where the
preset was stored.
Key Concept
When you turn the MSC0603 on, it uses setup #1 as the
default, and this cannot change. If you plan on turning
off the MSC0603, make certain to store the initial
settings in setup #1.
Power-on Settings
To power the MSC0603 up, simply plug the unit it the outlet. There is no power on/off switch.
Reset to Factory Default
Soft Reset - To restore I/O configurations, volume levels, and the serial set up to the default
factory setting, press the 1 and 5 input buttons.
Hard Reset - To restore all parameters, including presets, to the default factory setting, use the
[DFLTx]command.

2002 - INLINE, INC. MSC0603 OPERATION MANUAL - v1.0 5/7/02
Remote Operation
RS-232 Control
The MSC0603 RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serial control port accepts serial commands from a
control system, computer serial port, or any other device capable of sending out serial ASCII
commands at compatible baud rates. A complete listing of RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 codes is
included below.
Communication Protocol:
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No parity check
• 9600 baud (factory default setting)
Protocol Structure
All commands sent to the unit must contain a leading character, the actual command, and an
ending character. The MSC0603 can accept multiple commands, storing them in a buffer. It
immediately executes each command in the order it was issued.
The MSC0603 recognizes [ and ] as leading and ending characters, also called Command
Codes. The factory default for the Command Code is [ ]. The Command code can be changed
via RS-232. Some sample command codes follow. For example:
This part of the command
string... Represents:
[ The leading character
ADDRxx The actual command.
] The ending character
This command string... Means:
[ADDRxx] Assign an address to the unit, 01 to 98,
where xx = 01-98.

12
MSC0603 OPERATION MANUAL - v1.0 5/7/02 2002 - INLINE, INC.
Using the CTL120-2 Remote Control
CTL120-2 IR Remote Control sends infrared commands to the CTL101. The CTL101 will
convert these IR signals to serial commands so you can control functions on the MSC0603
matrix switcher. A diagram outlining the location of each button is on page 18.
To use the CTL120-2 remote, press the MATRIX button. The remote is now in matrix switcher
mode.
To configure a new input/output patch using the CTL120-2 remote control:
1. Press the remote control button that corresponds to the desired output select button.
2. Press the remote control button that corresponds to the desired input select button you
want to connect to the output.
Note: The Blank button on the remote control does not work to blank the
currently selected output.

13
2002 - INLINE, INC. MSC0603 OPERATION MANUAL - v1.0 5/7/02
Serial Commands
Addressing Commands
If the switcher is being used in RS-232 mode (no other devices connected in parallel) there is no
need to assign an address for this unit. If you are using multiple Inline products connected in
parallel to a single serial port using RS-422 or RS-485 communications, you will need to assign
an address for each unit.
The factory default for the unit is no address. The address for the unit must be between 01 and
98. Address 00 is a broadcast address and all units on the buss will perform the action
commanded; however, they will not issue any responses.
To open communications to an addressed device, you must send a [CCxx] command. All other
devices on the buss will ignore commands until addressed.
COMMAND DESCRIPTION
[ADDRxx] Assigns an address to the unit, 01 to 98. Address 99 is reserved for future
products.
• Where xx = 01 - 98
[ADDR@] Removes an address from the unit. This is the factory default, and is the
typical way to use the switcher when in the RS-232 mode
[ADDR?] Query unit for a pre-assigned address.
[CCxx] Connects controller to the addressed unit. 00 is a broadcast address thus all
connected devices will perform commands. This command is to be used in
conjunction with the [ADDRxx]command string.
• Where
o xx = 01 - 98
o Note: This command string is case sensitive.

14
MSC0603 OPERATION MANUAL - v1.0 5/7/02 2002 - INLINE, INC.
Set-up Commands
These commands are for configuring the switcher, and you only need to send them once. If using
a third party control system, you should place most commands in this section in the start-up
section of the program.
