Status Update
VALFB stands for Value Feed Back. When this seng is on, all value changes are sent “autonomously” by Concept
1. This way it’s easy to keep the status synced. Default, VALFB is on. IPGAIN and SOURCENAME are NOT sent when
they are modied.
INFO can only be used with the GET command. The GET INFO instrucon is replied with the current status of most
variables. It will only work when VALFB is on. IPGAIN and SOURCENAME is not sent aer the GET INFO instrucon
but their status can also be requested with the GET command. Below is an example of a reply aer a GET INFO
instrucon in stereo mode. The <CR> characters at the end of the line are not shown:
PAGING OFF
MULTIZONE OFF
PAGACT ON

MSCLVL OFF

MAXMICLVL 0
EQBASS 0

contain space characters. Example:
Instrucon: get sourcename a<CR>
