    CONTROL PROTOCOL Commands Every command starts with ‘!’ character and ends with carriage return (ascii 0x0D, referred to in this document as <CR>). There are two types of commands, commands and status requests. Commands are used to emulate remote key presses or to set a certain volume etc. Status requests are used to query the current state of the controller (volume, current source etc.).

  • Page 11: Control Protocol Usage

    CONTROL PROTOCOL USAGE Controlling power Main zone and zone 2 power can be controlled separately with commands !POWERONMAIN<CR>, !POWEROFFMAIN<CR>, !POWERONZONE2<CR> and !POWEROFFZONE2<CR>. Command !POWER?<CR> is used to get the current power status of the main zone. The response for this command is !POWER(X)<CR>, where the X is 0 or 1, where 0 means the main zone is off and 1 means it is on.
  • Page 12: Controlling Sources

    !SRC(X)<CR> is used to select a specific source. The X in the command can be anything between 0 and the index of the last source. This response is also send automatically, when the source changes, if feedback level is 1 or higher. If main zone is off, the P200 will reply with the previous selected source.
  • Page 13: Controlling Processing Modes

    Controlling processing modes The P200 processor has controls for selecting processing modes, also called audio modes. Command !AUDMODEL?<CR> can be used to get a list of processing modes; how many are there and what are their names. For example a response for command !AUDMODEL?<CR> could be: !AUDMODECOUNT(8) !AUDMODE(0)"None"<CR>...
  • Page 14: Controlling Focus Positions

    Controlling focus positions Command !RPFOCS?<CR> is used to get the list of selectable focus positions along with their names. For example a response for !RPFOCS<CR> could be: !RPFOCCOUNT(4) <CR> !RPFOC(1)"Focus 1"<CR> !RPFOC(2)"Focus 2"<CR> !RPFOC(4)"Focus 4"<CR> !RPFOC(9)"Global"<CR> It can be seen from the response that there are 4 RoomPerfect positions, named “Focus 1”, “Focus 2”, “Focus 4”...
