RS232 CONTROL
Command Format
For reference - the command format to be input is:
Type “cir” - followed by a “space” - then the “code
number” – and hit the “Enter” key.
For example, the command cir 39 + “Enter”, will tell the
matrix to select the next input source for output 4.
See Matrix Control Codes section below for more details
on code numbering
Matrix Control Codes
Command code input in the COM Control software
follows a strict format for commands to be understood
by the system. Care must be taken when inputting and
checking code, with codes double-checked for input
accuracy if commands are not accepted or incorrectly
actioned by the matrix or control system.
Configuration Example - Control Code Introduction
Using Output1 as an example to explain control code
definition and application – all other control command
codes are identified in the same way.
Original Table
Description Table
If a control command is successfully sent to the device
via the COM control software, the current output state
selected will feedback to show the input port selected.
The following table shows the return status format:
For example, if cir 51”Enter” is sent successfully to the
matrix, it will feedback “s62”, meaning output 6 has
selected input 2.
Read Status Command
The command length of the read status is 4 bytes.
Type “bc” - followed by a “space” - and hit the “Enter”
key.

11. Advanced Remote
Control
IR Call Back and Third Party Control systems
Please note:
Due to the differing method of control based on
location, if you are using a third party control system, learning the
control from the IR is NOT recommended as control will be limited
to scrolling up/down between inputs. For discrete source selection
you will need to import discrete hex codes for control systems.
These can be obtained through the Wyrestorm website, by
contacting our technical support or you can input them manually.
For reference:
The IR is NEC and possesses a carrier wave of
38KHz with a system code of 0x00

12. Advanced Operation
Controlling the MX0606/0808-PP using RS232 and
COMCTL PC Software
Typically, unless alternative methods of controlling the matrix are
chosen or problems with device communication through the matrix
encountered, basic operation is all that is required to operate
your MX0606/0808-PP. However, the following information
on advanced operation will detail how the matrix system can be
configured and for advanced control and settings can be altered
or data manually input should such problems arise, as well as
configuring the system for third party control.
RS232 Remote Control
Control of the matrix is possible through RS232 using third party
control systems or the dedicated Wyrestorm COM CTL software
included with your purchase (also downloadable from www.
wyrestorm.com).
RS232 Setting
Should third party control be required, please see below for control
system configuration and hex code input. The RS232 connection
on the matrix is female QB9 Users can use a USB to RS232
cable or a direct male to female serial cable.

After fully connecting all inputs and outputs to the matrix and
installing the software, on opening the program the control
window will display information from the matrix, such as messages
received from the switch such as input/output details, firmware
version and control commands/HEX codes that allow the system
to be controlled remotely, as well as buttons used to navigate the
screen.
