Sonance Controlling the C4630 SE via RS-232 Inbound Serial Control, Toggle IR Code

C4630 SE HOME AUDIO SYSTEM

After setting the number of repeats, drag the Repeat Steps icon into the Macro Window. Then drag the command to be repeated into the bracket connected to the Repeat command (see Figure 62, on page 41).

Toggle IR Code

The Toggle IR Code command (see Figure 63) causes a button to alternate between two different IR commands each time the button is pressed. This is useful for controlling a component with a button that uses a toggle code, such as a CD player with a single PLAY/PAUSE button.

After dragging the Toggle IR Code icon into the Macro Window, drag the two IR commands you want the button to toggle between into the bracket connect- ed to the Toggle IR Code command (see Figure 64).

Controlling the C4630 SE via RS-232 (Inbound Serial Control)

In addition to issuing RS-232 commands in macros to control other audio/video components, the C4630 SE’s audio functions can also be controlled via RS-232 commands issued by an RS-232 capable control device (serial control).

NOTE: The C4630 SE is capable of one - directional serial operation (either INBOUND OR OUTBOUND) ONLY. Placing a single RS - 232 command in any macro will automatically conf igure the C4630 SE as an OUTBOUND serial control unit that will not respond to RS-232 commands from a serial control device.

To allow the C4630 SE to be controlled by a serial-control device you must remove all RS-232 commands from all macros. See Finding RS-232 Commands In Macros, on page 50, for more information.

C4630 SE Inbound Serial Protocol (fixed)

Baud Rate = 19200 ; Data Bits = 8; Parity = None ; Stop Bits = 1; Flow Control = None
