C4630 SE HOME AUDIO SYSTEM

RS-232 Command (Outbound Serial Control)

The C4630 SE can issue macros containing outbound serial control strings to a device in the system via its RS-232 connector (see Figure 13, on page 17).

To create an RS-232 macro command set the following parameters and then drag the icon into the Macro Window (see Figure 57):

Baud Rate — Select the correct baud rate from the drop-down box for the device being communicated with.

Format — Select the appropriate format from the drop-down box for the serial line of the device being communicated with:

8N1

= eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit

7E1

= seven data bits, even parity, one stop bit

7O1

= seven data bits, odd parity, one stop bit

7M1

=

seven data bits, mark parity, one stop bit

7S1

=

seven data bits, space parity, one stop bit

Command String — RS-232 commands can be in either ASCII text or Hex code.

If you’re typing ASCII text make sure that the Hex Mode button is not selected, then type the command into the STRING window.

If you’re typing a Hex command or importing a Hex command from another device, press the HEX MODE button first and then type or copy the command into the window.

Once the proper command is in the STRING window drag the icon into the Macro Window.

\n

=

\k

=

Hex byte

\e

=

Escape

\t

=

\\= Backslash
