- KD-MS4x4G-2 supports KD's standard matrixing protocol, so if you have controlled a KD matrix with a third-party control system before, you will likely have success with the same driver/module.

a. Switching HDMI AV + External Audio together

i. SPOxxSIyy xx = output (01-04), yy = input (01-04)

b. Switching HDMI AV Only

i. SPOxxSByy xx = output (01-04), yy = input (01-04)

c. Switching External Audio only

i. SPOxxSAyy xx = output (01-04), yy = input (01-04)

- A carriage return is required at the end of each string. See the TCP/IP and RS-232 Commands section for full command set and protocol.
