MAS7.1 Command Reference
‘LI’ Front Panel Light Intensities and Mode (Continued)
Where ‘ mode ’ settings are:
0 = Turn off front panel lights.
1 = Front panel lights are always at
dim level.
2 = Front panel lights are always at bright level.
3 = Front panel lights auto-dim after 4 seconds.
The dim and bright intensities range from 0=Off, to 100=Maximum brightness.
If the levels are set, but the ‘$’ suffix is not used, the levels the new levels will not be restored after a power fail-
ure. The ‘$’ suffix is used to backup the new settings in EEPROM, which will be restored after a power failure.
‘MCS’ Multi-Channel Split
The split between the multichannel connections and the analog audio connection is usually between the 5.1
connectors and the L & R stereo connectors, but this can be changed.
MCS
flags Set the multichannel / analog audio split.
MCS
flags
,$
Set the multichannel / analog audio split, backup settings in EEPROM.
MCS ?
Query for the current settings.
Response String:
=MCS
flags
Where ‘ flags’ is a bitmapped parameter defined as:
LF - Left Front connector
RF - Right Front connector
SUB - Subwoofer connector
CEN - Center channel connector
LR
- Left Rear connector
RR - Right Rear connector
L
- Left stereo audio connector
R - Right stereo audio connector
This command uses a bitmapped parameter. See: “ Using Bitmapped Parameters ” on page 24 .
Each bit represents the mapping for one connector, as defined in the above table.
If a bit is set to a one, the corresponding connector is mapped to the multichannel audio channel and an fol-
lows the breakaway option of the ‘M’ channel.
If the bit is set to a zero, the connector becomes part of the analog audio channel and follows the breakaway
options of the ‘A’ channel.
The ‘Decimal Value’ in the table’s header, refers to the values added together to create the decimal parameter
used by the command. For instances if you only wanted the ‘CEN’ and ‘SUB’ to be considered part of the “mul-
tichannel audio”, then only those bits would be set to one, and the rest of the bits set to zero. The parameter
value would be calculated as: 8+4, making the parameter value: 12.
The command to directly map the ‘CEN’ and the ‘SUB’ connectors to multichannel audio, and set the rest of
the connectors to the analog audio channel would be:
MCS 12
If the settings are changed, but the ‘$’ suffix is not used, the new settings will not be restored after a power fail-
ure. The ‘$’ suffix is used to backup the new settings in EEPROM, which will be restored after a power failure.
