Serial Commands 

This mode provides a simple method to control the Colour Theme Controller via a PC (or any device in 

which the serial data output can be formatted correctly, which includes a number of home 

automation/lighting control systems.).  If echo is enabled, characters sent will be echoed back, unless an 

incorrect character is detected (i.e. not a number), in which case all characters will be ignored until the 

carriage return character is detected. 

 

The command to set the currently running show is simply a 1 to 3 digit number (transmitted in ASCII) 

representing the desired show followed by the carriage return character.  If a value of 0 is entered, the unit 

will turn off. It can be turned on again by entering any number, if the number is an unimplemented show, 

the Colour Theme Controller will resume the previous show. Entering an unimplemented show when 

already on will have no effect. 

 

The command to 

dim is the ‘

-

‘ character followed by a single ASCII digit, with 0 represent dim level 10 (ie 

100%).  A dim command can directly follow a show command.  Refer to Appendix B.  Serial Command 

Examples for further explanation.

 The C-Bus system may have further limitations to these values.
