Tag Configuration 0x00D0

SwitchKit Name

TagConfig

Type

EXS API and SwitchKit API message

Description

Each line card and Matrix Controller card has battery-backed RAM that stores configuration information provided by the host. This message allows the host to assign a tag to a card’s configuration. after it has been configured. If the card configuration is modified, due to either Excel platform restoration of default values or host-initiated configuration commands, the tag is reset to 0.

The tag is reported to the host in the Card Status Report and Card Status Query messages. With this feature, the host can quickly determine if a card has the proper configuration. When a card’s configuration is modified, the tag is reset to 0, and the card must be retagged. In the event that the system is powered down, or a card is inserted, all battery-backed configuration is cleared.
