C4630 SE HOME AUDIO SYSTEM

SIMULATE BUTTON PRESS Serial Commands

The SIMULATE BUTTON PRESS serial command :P (see table on page 43) can be used to allow a serial control device to trigger the macro that is programmed into any keypad button in any C4630 SE zone.

The command format is :Pzxyyy<cr>

P = Simulate button press

z = The Zone number of the command (1 – 6)

x= The command layer: 1 = PRESS, 2 = PRESS-AND-HOLD, 3 = DOUBLE-PRESS, 4

=EXTRA COMMANDS (see Expanded Control Features, on page 47)

yyy = The keypad button to be triggered, from the table in Figure 65.

For example, to trigger the PRESS layer SOURCE 1 keypad button macro in Zone 2 the serial command would be:

:P2117<cr>

P= SIMULATE BUTTON PRESS command

2 = Zone 2

1 = PRESS layer

17 = SOURCE 1 button

Simulate Button Press Commands in Multi-Unit Systems

As with other serial commands, a SIMULATE BUTTON PRESS command can be used to control any C4630 SE in a system with multiple units by adding the C4630 SE’s Unit ID number (see page 27) to the command after the colon.

For example, to trigger the PRESS layer SOURCE 1 keypad button macro in Zone 2 of Unit #3 in a multi-unit system, the serial command would be:

:3P2117<cr>

3 = Unit ID #3

P= SIMULATE BUTTON PRESS command

2 = Zone 2

1 = PRESS layer

17 = SOURCE 1 button
