Remote Interface Commands & Responses Protocol
Sonifex SCi remote control software handles all communication with the unit via a
convenient graphical user interface. However, this protocol is provided for those users who
wish to develop their own remote control applications or communicate with the unit using
a text-based terminal program.
Command Format
Commands are case-insensitive and should be terminated in a carriage return character, a
line feed character may be sent but it will be ignored. Further commands sent before the
first command is acknowledged will be ignored. Responses will be CR & LF terminated.
