General Information

Serial Port Communication

Communication Settings: 9600 Baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, No parity

Network Communication

Communication Settings: The default operation of the network card is DHCP mode. This means that the Network Card will automatically attempt to locate a DHCP server and acquire an IP address from it. If this fails, it will revert to Static IP mode.

The default static IP settings are: IP Address: 192.168.1.20

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Network Commands: All network communication is done over UDP/IP. All telegrams (both client and MRC) are broadcast over the local network's broadcast address on port 5009, the broadcast address would be 255.255.255.255:5009.

Network commands must be prefixed by "CMRC000000000000".

For communication with multiple controllers on the same network, please call Technical Support.

General Control Information

The Matrix Distributed Audio, multi-room audio control systems can be externally controlled by sending ASCII text command strings to the Bi-Directional RS-232 serial interface or network interface. Every command must be terminated with a line feed (0x0A). All messages are case-sensitive.

The MRC will respond to command messages with a status response message once the command has been executed. In the event that an MRC status changes, the MRC will also send unsolicited status messages (v7.05 and higher).

Unsolicited Status Messages: The MRC will send the following unsolicited status messages when a status has changed:

MVL

MBS

MTR

MSC MASON MASOFF MASOFF0 MSR MGL MBAL MPRV MRGS MFAV MLOT MPRS MSST CALM RSST RSCI RSCT
