From the project
Custom PCB with SAMD21 QT PY controlling TWO ADG1606BRUZ 16 input muxes! This board is 30% smaller than V3 and uses a single 16x2 pin header.
The SAMD21 QT PY can be programmed with the appropriate file (drag-n-drop) from the uf2_firmware folder.
MUX1:EN 1 # enable MUX1, a zero will disable the mux
MUX1:SEL 1 # select S1 input, values 1 through 16 are valid
MUX1:EN? # this query returns the state of MUX1
MUX1:SEL? # this query returns the presently selected input
IDN? # returns valid commands and this URL
