Simulating the RC-5 IR command via RS-232
A new feature in the Concert AVR-1 is the ability to simulate RC5 format
IR commands via serial commands. The IR simulation command will con-
tain 7 bytes as there will be 2 <Data> bytes for the RC-5 command. The
actual command <CC> is 0x08 with the 2 <Data> bytes being the IR
command values. The 2 data bytes are the system code then the command
code, both these codes are in decimal format. Depending on your software
or remote control device, a conversion of these codes to the appropriate
format may be needed.
Changes in state from different inputs
While the Concert AVR-1 is controlled by a serial command, its state may
be changed by other inputs such as the front panel or through IR. Such
changes in state will yield a response with an answer code from the Con-
cert AVR-1. In order to determine the command code, you may use the
response to get the code for the desired function if you can’t find the listing
for it in the table below.
Serial and IR Code Tables
The following pages contain an extensive list of serial and IR codes for
automation use of your Concert AVR-1. You can also download this
information from the AudioControl web site at http://www.audiocontrol.

systems and remotes as we proactively provide automation codes to many
of them.
