The key allows you to access to the selected preset or ID selection.

6. RS232 Serial Communication Port

The RS232 port allows incoming and outgoing communication between the MAXI-Q PC and a PC. Via conne-
cting the MAXI-Q PC to a PC, all the functions are possible to be control remotely by ALTO editing software.

1>.Ensure that power to the MAXI-Q PC and the computer is switched off.
2>.Connect the MAXI-Q PC to the PC's RS232 serial port using a data cable with 9-pin female plugs. The re-

quired data cable is known as a 'null modern' (also data transfer) type serial interface cable. Attach the other
end to the 9-pin socket situated next to the audio output terminals of the MAXI-Q PC.

3>.Turn on your audio system, including the MAXI-Q PC. Now boot up your computer and run the PC editor
