Technical specifications
The 851E features a Control Bus input/output that
allow un-modulated remote control commands
(positive logic, TTL level) to be received electrically
by the unit and looped to another unit if desired.
These control commands are typically generated
by custom installation (multi-room) systems or
remote IR receiver systems. The Control Bus sockets are colour-coded
orange.
An IR Emitter Input is also provided that allows modulated IR remote
control commands to be received electrically by the unit. Commands on
this input operate the unit only and are not looped out demodulated on
the Control Bus Output.
An RS232C port is also featured which allows the 851E to be
controlled by C.I. systems.
In addition the unit features 'direct' IR/Control codes as well as toggle
codes for some of their features to simplify programming custom
installation systems. Special direct On/Off and Mute commands can be
accessed on the supplied remote control for coding into C.I. systems as
follows:
1. Press and hold the Standby/On button. The remote first generates
its standby (toggle) command. Keep the button held down, after 12
seconds an amplifier "On" command will be generated. If the button
is kept held down for a further 12 seconds, an "Off" command is
generated.
2. Press and hold the Mute button. The remote first generates it's mute
(toggle) command. Keep the button held down, after 12 seconds a
"Mute on" command will be generated. If the button is kept held down
for a further 12 seconds, a "Mute off" command is generated.
