Tango Series Audio Controllers
On-Board AM/FM Tuner Module
Tango Controllers come equipped with one DAS-AMFM AM/FM Tuner Module (FG1110-01). Additionally,
you can install a second Tuner Module, as an optional accessory.
The Tuner Modules take up the first (and second if two Tuner Modules are installed) source input on the Tango
Controller.
Each source component is selected using the appropriate button on the keypad, remote or other interface which
corresponds to one of the Tango Controller’s audio device inputs (labeled as:
input 1
,
input 2
, and
input 3
respectively).
Antenna Installation
The DAS-AMFM tuner requires a 75ohm F-type connection to receive FM stations. Connect a
75ohm antenna source into the 75ohm antenna input located on the back of the Controller.
The DAS-AMFM tuner requires an AM antenna loop to receive AM stations. Connect the loop
antenna source into the AM antenna input located on the back of the Controller.
Refer to the
Tuner Modules
section on page 39 for details.
Connecting the RS-232 Serial Port
Tango Audio Controllers provide an RS-232 (DB9) port for receiving RS-232 Controller Commands. Refer to
the
RS-232 Controller Command Messages
section on page 61 for a complete listing of supported commands.
Connector: DB9 Male
Communications: 9600 Baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity
All messages are sent using ASCII text strings. Every command and status message is terminated with a line
feed (0x0A or 10). All messages are case sensitive.
The Tango Audio Controller will respond to the command messages sent by the Host PC and will not send any
messages except in this case. If the Host sends a new message before the Controller has responded to the
previous message, the Controller will ignore the new message.
The Host should always start its communication with the Controller by sending a “Get Configuration”
command to determine the capabilities of the unit it is controlling.
Not all Matrix Controllers support all of the functionality which is specified in the Command Definition.
Commands must be in UPPERCASE • Valid Commands do not require CR/LF
Valid Commands are confirmed with “Command Issued”
Invalid commands are responded to with “ERROR”
RS-232 Cable
When connecting to the RS-232 port located on the back of the Tango Controller, it is necessary to use a DB9
cable. Tango Controllers utilize DCE protocol therefore no NULL modem adapter is necessary. You may also
use a USB to DB9 adapter.
Refer to the DAS-AMFM Installation Guide for detailed installation instructions.
Just as a radio is incapable of playing two different stations at the same time, if
multiple zones are listening to the same source, they will be listening to the same
music. Consider multiple components of the same type (such as the tuner) if different
zones wish to listen to different radio stations at the same time.
Antennas should only be installed indoors.
