1. Switching command at Internet Explorer
It is a receiving data to change channel.
Beginning with character train of “LCD.CGI”, “O 01 = I 6” means “Output 01 Input 6”, the sequences and sizes
of character train should be the same.
After execute reset, it should be connected again to server (switcher).
