OE: Output Extender Scaler Timing Select
The "OE" is an initiation command for Output Extender Scaler timing selection. The
characters and numbers that follow the "OE" command tell the system, set scaling
timing on selected Output. The last character “!” is found at the end of a command
code which tells the system to execute the command. For a complete list of command
characters and their functions, see examples below.
 OE command only applies to the HDMI with scaling Board and CATx/Fiber Output
