1. SUMMARY The RS-232C protocol described in this document is designed to be used to control the 9000 Series Amplifier from a PC and/or remote controller. This specification applies to the 9000 Series firmware version 3.10 or later.
3. COMMAND CONFIGURATION • • Command Data length (N) Data 1 Data 2 is in the range of 80H to FFH. Command range of 00H to 7FH. Data Data N and Data length are in the • Data length (N) refers to the length of the subsequent data of Data 1 to Data N. • If received data contains more byte data than the Data length, these exceeding data are abandoned. • If a next command received contains byte data shorter than the Data length, the previous command is abandoned. 4.

5.3. Preset Memory Recall Recalls any desired preset memories. 9000Series Amplifier responds with the same data as that received. Note: Settings to be stored in preset memories are referred to as “SCENE” in mixer mode and “EVENT” in matrix mode. In 'Matrix mode', the command of 'EVENT end' is not provided. Therefore, it is recommended to use ‘Preset memory recall’ command only for Mixer mode ‘SCENE’ activation.
5.4. Channel ON/OFF This performs ON/OFF setting of the Input or Output channel. 9000Series Amplifier responds with the same data as that received.
5.6. Tone Control Performs Bass and Treble gain settings of the input/output channels. 9000Series Amplifier responds with the same data as that received.. Note: Command cannot be received during power off.
