Overview
The PM1122 Pre ‐ amp can be remote controlled by the PM1122 ‐ INT. The PM1122 ‐ INT can be
controlled in 3 different ways:
•
Using RS ‐ 232
•
Using the contacts to recall presets
•
Using the optional RF module
For control using the RS ‐ 232 port, the PM1122 ‐ INT accepts strings of ASCII characters to control and
read settings of music level, microphone mix level and the input selector of both zones. Further, the
RS ‐ 232 port will have to be used to store presets, adjust minimum and maximum level settings.
Strings can be sent via third ‐ party software like Hilgraeve’s Hyperterminal or the freeware utility
“ Hercules SETUP utility” from HW ‐ group.
For preset control using contacts, it’s needed to store the presets using RS ‐ 232. It can be done using
terminal software (Hyperterminal, Hercules, ...) or with the APart PM1122 Control Panel software.
Please note the APart software runs only on Windows® platforms, it’s freely downloadable but no
support or guaranties are given.
Once the presets are stored, no RS ‐ 232 communication is needed anymore. Refer to the chapter
Presets for more information.
For control using the optional RF module, no configuration with RS ‐ 232 is needed. Once the module
is mounted (see chapter “
Easywave
” on page 9), the push buttons at the front side are enough to
assign a switch to a zone. Please note there are some features which can be configured using RS ‐ 232
but for normal operation, it’s not needed!
