Function 

Description 

EN 

Echo Enable 

>EN 

Enables character echo so you can see typed characters on 

screen. 

EF 

Echo Disable 

>EF 

Disables terminal character display (default). 

TT= 

Select tuned channel (2-126) 

 

 

 

126=External AV inputs 

Selects channel 28 only if 28 is present in current TR 

Ex:  

>TT=28 

TC= 

Force tuned channel (2-126) 

 

 

126=External AV inputs 

Selects channel 39 regardless of current TR 

Ex:  

>TC=39 or >TC39 

TU 

Tune channel up 

Selects next higher channel in stored Tune Ring 

TD 

Tune channel down 

Selects next lower channel in stored Tune Ring 

VU 

Ramp volume up 

Starts volume ramping up 

VD 

Ramp volume down 

Starts volume ramping down 

VL 

Ramps volume to level (0 – 63)  Sets volume to specific level 

VM 

Volume Mute on 

Mutes audio 

VX 

Volume Mute off 

Restores audio volume to previous level 

VT 

Toggle Volume Mute 

Alternates audio mute on and off 

VV 

Stop volume ramp 

Stops volume ramping 

VW 

Save volume level 

Save current volume level, default when unit powers up 

To power-up to last level, set volume to zero (VL) and save. 

KK= 

Send Key Response 

Instructs ICC-STA to send an iC-Net “K” response string with the 

included value to the ICC-HE. 

ST 

Request Channel/Source status 

 

Returns Channel/Source status response string 

Ex:   >ST 

SV 

Request Audio status 

Unit sends Audio status string 

DV# 

View device number 

>DV — Shows STA device number in Terminal. 

DV#n 

 

Change device number 

 

>DV#nnn 

Changes current device number to specified number 

Ex:   >DV#306 sets device number to 306 

ID 

Show STA Version 

>ID — Shows STA ID and firmware version on Terminal 

Z] 

Reset units 

>Z] 

Reset FT6 and STA 

 

A carriage return is required at the end of each command use ASCII CR, Hex $0D, or keyboard ‘Enter’. 

The ‘=’ sign for parameters may be omitted if desired, though it is helpful for clarity in checking programming. 

Leading zeros may be included or omitted from command parameters.
