To interface the VX-3000 with a home theater automation/control system or a PC running
terminal emulation software:
1. Connect it to your control system or PC as shown in Figure 3-17.
2. Start a terminal session on your PC using a terminal-emulation program, such as
HyperTerminal.
3. Configure the RS-232 controller or PC serial port as follows: no parity, 8 data bits, 1
stop bit and no flow control. Set the baud rate to 19200.
4. Type a command from among those listed in Table 6-1. For example, to select the
Component 1 input, type

Serial Command
Syntax
Serial commands to the VX-3000 take the following form:
• Commands are in ASCII format.
• Commands must be in
UPPERCASE
; for example,
X001X
,
not
x001x
.
• When you send a valid command, the VX-3000 performs the following actions:
1. Echoes the command back to the PC or control system, unless the command is
X001X
(Power On).
2. Executes the command.
3. Sends a confirmation message in the form
X0_
[command number]
X<CR>
. The
confirmation message does not include the leading zeros in the command.
For example, when you send the command
X003X
, the VX-3000 responds with
X003XX0_3X<CR>
. When you send the command
X061X
, the VX-3000 responds
with
X061XX0_61X<CR>
. When you send the command
X133X
, the VX-3000
responds with
X133XX0_133X<CR>
.
• When you enter an invalid command, the VX-3000 echoes the command and does
nothing else.
