MAESTRO M9
Simulating the RC-5 IR command via RS-232
A key feature in the Maestro M9 is the ability to simulate RC5 format IR
commands via serial commands. The IR simulation command will contain
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 Maestro M9 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 Maestro
M9. 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
Please head on over to our web site, www.audiocontrol.com , to get the se-
rial/IP protocol doc. You can find a complete listing of the automation pro-
tocol – commands, cheats, rich detail that makes most eyes glaze over – at
the product pages. You can also find control modules/drivers/profiles on the
products pages as well. Alternatively, if you can’t sleep, and are unfamiliar
with hex, read the doc – it’ll put you right to sleep.
