How to Create PROGRAM BYTE STRINGS for the Matrix 3200/ 6400 System

The Matrix 3200/6400 System can be controlled and programmed through the RS-232 port via third party control systems. These systems need to be “told” what bytes to send to the Matrix to perform this control. The Matrix 3200/6400 User’s Manual provides details of how to build these byte strings (using paper and pencil), but the Matrix Virtualization/Control Program can make this job much easier by building the strings for you. To generate the strings:

•Create all the Matrix System settings (program) from either Emulate mode or being connected to a Matrix System. The Program Strings that can be viewed produce the Current-Ties, Presets, Audio- Config, and RGB Delay settings.

FIGURE 3-10.A

• To see the strings,

click on the TOOLSSHOW RS-232-STRINGSmenu to show the Program Strings screen (Figure 3-10.A).
