Has anyone successfully communicated with the Kramer 6x6 DVI to switch presets using the custom serial sends? I left work this evening thinking this will probably be harder than it should be, so any pointers in the vague correct direction would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

UPDATE:
That was a little easier than anticipated, the hardest part was finding the correct software to set the ethernet:

1: Get the software here: http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/download.asp?f=30115

2: PC only, connect to your device via a ethernet hub/switch

3: Set up a custom serial device with TCP Output, the ipi of the unit to communicate with and the default port is generally 5000 if you haven't changed it.

3: The stings to send are the same as the 232 commands, e.g as follows:

Recall Preset 1
[04818081]

Recall Preset 2
[04828081]

Recall Preset 3
[04838081]

And on and on, for induvidual patching in and out see the Kramer documentation.

Page 10 is handy.
