MICROPHONES AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS
Using the P4800 with AMX / Crestron Systems
Wiring
The P4800 uses a standard 7 wire RS-232 port for control. Crestron and AMX controllers use 5 wire RS-232. In order to
use a P4800 with Crestron or AMX, a custom cable will need to be built. The following diagram shows the cable. For a 5
volt supply, the resistor should be 1kohms.
All wires are straight through. The 9 pin connectors have numbers stamped on them. Follow those stamped numbers for
the pin out. Connect the RX, TX, GND, RTS, and CTS to the five wire RS-232 port on the control unit. The P4800 requires
a voltage of 5 to 12 volts on the DTR line. This voltage tells the microprocessor to accept any data that it receives on the
TX line.

  • Page 3: Changing Presets

    The format to change presets is as follows: C n h pp h Where n is the device ID set via the DIP switches on the P4800 unit (0 to 15), and pp is the preset number minus one. pp has a range from 0 to 127.
  • Page 4: Change Settings On P4800

    Note: <Device ID> is a hexadecimal number ranging from 00h to 0Fh. This number should match the DIP switch setting on the back of the P4800. Once a command is sent, the P4800 will echo the command and then send a return string to acknowledge the change.

  • Page 10: Matrix Mixer - Change Settings

    Matrix Mixer – Change Settings The matrix mixer signal processor in the P4800 unit has 4 inputs and N outputs (NOUTPUTS). When there is no cross over processor or splitter in the preset, N is 8, i.e. a 4 x 8 mixer. If there is a cross over or splitter, N is reduced by the number of cross over/splitter channels minus one.

    The following list of commands can be sent to the P4800 to query the status of its settings. After the query command is sent, the P4800 will first send an echo of the query command and then it will send a return string with the status of the particular setting.
