1. SUMMARY

The RS-232C protocol described in this document is designed to be used to control the

9000M2 Series Amplifier from a PC and/or remote controller. This specification applies to the 9000M2 Series firmware version 1.00 or later.

There are both descriptions of mixer mode and matrix mode in this manual, but only mixer mode available with 9000M2 series.

Settings that can be controlled are as follows:

• Channel Fader Gain

• Crosspoint Gain

• Preset Memory Recall

• Channel ON/OFF

• Power ON/OFF

• Tone Control

• EQ Settings (ON/OFF, Band number selection, Gain setting, Q setting, Center frequency setting)

• Loudness Compensation Settings

• Filter Settings (High Pass Filter/Low Pass Filter)

• Filter Settings

• Input Sensitivity Setting

• Phantom Power ON/OFF Setting

• Paging Event Preset Recall

Following values can be read from the 9000M2 Series Amplifier.

• Channel name

When connecting the PC and/or remote controller to the 9000M2 Series Amplifier using this protocol, set the 9000M2 Series Amplifier’s RS-232C port as follows:

Bit rate: 9,600/19,200/38,400/57,600 bps (Select the band rate depending on the remote controller to be connected.) (See; Operating instructions of the

9000M2 Series Amplifiers.)

COMMANDLIST, COMMUNICATION EXAMPLES and PARAMETER TABLES are available at the end of each section of this document.

2. SERIAL PORT SETTING

• 9,600/19,200/38,400/57,600 bps, 8 bits, non-parity, stop bit: 1, non flow control

• Connector: D-sub 9 pins, straight cable

• Signal line: No.2=TX, No.3=RX, No.5=Ground

3. COMMAND CONFIGURATION

Data length (N)

Data range of 00H to 7FH.

• Data length (N) refers to the length of the subsequent data of Data 1 to Data N.

• If received data contains more byte data than the Data length, these exceeding data are abandoned.

• If a next command received contains byte data shorter than the Data length, the previous command is abandoned.

4. TRANSMISSION DATA AFTER COMMAND RECEPTION

When normal data is received, the same data as the reception data is to be transmitted.

Example: 91H, 03H, 00H, 00H, 00H (Reception data)

91H, 03H, 00H, 00H, 00H (Transmission data)

When channel data is received and the data is outside of the range, the data is to be inverted and transmitted.

Example: 91H, 03H, 00H, 08H, 00H (Reception data)

91H, 03H, 00H, 77H, 00H (Transmission data)

When abnormal data is received, the data is to be inverted and transmitted.

Example: 91H, 03H, 00H, 00H, 6AH (Reception data)

91H, 03H, 00H, 00H, 15H (Transmission data)

When data other than channel data is received and the data is outside of the range, no data is transmitted.

Example: 91H, 03H, 05H, 00H, 6AH (Reception data)

No response

See section 9.

COMMUNICATION EXAMPLES for other transmission data when normal data is received.

5.1.3. Channel Fader Gain - Step Up/ Step Down

Set the input and output channel gain positions by the number of steps.

Positions can be varied from the current status by the designated number of steps.

One position varies per step.

9000M2 series Amplifier informs position values changed by commands.

Position values are shown in POSITION V/S GAIN TABLE.

Values are 1dB step under -40dB, and 2dB step under -60dB.

The 9000M2 series Amplifier informs position values changed by Step Up or Down.

5.3. Preset Memory Recall

Recalls any desired preset memories. 9000M2 Series Amplifier responds with the same data as that received.

Note:

Settings to be stored in preset memories are referred to as “SCENE” in mixer mode and

Following command is used to terminate "EVENT" in Matrix Mode. (not available 9000M2 series)

F1H, 02H, 01H, (Event #)

9000M2 series Amplifier ignores this command .

The ROUTE event using the input channel with priority 8 (BGM event) and the BASE event cannot be terminated by this command.

To terminate the BGM event or the BASE event, it is necessary to setup the BGM END event to the unit and activate it.
