RS232 command set
Please note: This list contains some commands which are not recognised by the DSW600. They are included here as
they may be used to control other Meridian loudspeaker models which can be used in combination with the DSW600.

Command format Command format Command format Command format
RS232 commands consist of ASCII characters which are case sensitive. Some commands require parameters, so these
are followed by additional characters. All commands are terminated with a carriage return. For example:
To change the volume level to 45, the command is: VN45
This will cause the loudspeaker to change its volume and respond with: Volume 45
Non Non Non Non----volatile configuration and reset volatile configuration and reset volatile configuration and reset volatile configuration and reset
Some of the RS232 commands described in this document produce non-volatile (lasting) configuration changes in the
loudspeaker. These commands should be used carefully because they may affect the sound and operation of the
loudspeaker without giving any obvious external indications.
An RS232 command is provided to reset the DSW600 to its default configuration. For loudspeakers with IR receivers
such as DSP520.2, DSP640.2 and DSP750, the loudspeaker may also be reset by powering-up with the stop key pressed
on a Meridian remote control. This is confirmed by three flashes from the white light on the loudspeaker.

These commands are used for everyday control of a pair of loudspeakers such as by a control system connected to the
master loudspeaker through a Meridian Distributor.
