Crestron AudioReQuest Скачать руководство пользователя страница 5

Introduction:

This document explains how to interface all models of AudioReQuest Digital Music Servers with Crestron 
control systems using the AudioReQuest Crestron Demo Program version 7.0.0.  It will not give a detailed 
explanation of the protocol used to communicate with the AudioReQuest via Ethernet, Serial, or IR.  For 
this information, please download the Communication Protocol Guide from

The rear serial port is used for integrating the AudioReQuest with a control system.  Connection to the rear 
serial port requires a Female

Female NULL MODEM serial cable.  The front serial port(if equipped) is 

used ONLY for configuring certain settings on the AudioReQuest, such as the IP Address.  You CANNOT 
use the front serial port to control the ARQ.

The default baud rate depends on the model of AudioReQuest unit.  On newer AudioReQuest units, the 
baud rate is configurable in the webserver (Settings

Hardware

Control Port Baud Rate).  The table 

below shows the default baud rates by model.
