Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most advanced, dedicated multi-room amplifiers on the market. The AX250i like other Axium products is designed to maximize control, simplify functionality, & expedite installation. Axium products are built to the highest standards of quality and reliability. -
Page 3: Introduction
- See the features section of the manual. A utility program called AMPCTRL is available from the Axium website, this gives users complete access, and control of all Axium networked components, and even provides the ability to schedule events from your personal computer. -
Page 4: Features
• Remote controlled via Infra-red and Wired IR The front panel is equipped with an IR receiver, so the AX250i may receive IR directly from a PRX remote control, or other learning remote. The wired IR is decoded directly by the AX250i (IR is not re-emitted out of the front panel) •... - Page 5 The expansion bus uses the simple 20-way ribbon cable connector system • 32 Zones 32 zones of control is available. On the AX250i each Zone must be different, however in a multiple amplifier stack same Zone amplifiers are possible – they simply mimic every parameter.

This simplifies the Audio source component connections. – CD, TAPE, TUNER, AUX & Utility are connected to only one Axium amplifier! The summed Amp-On output, Axium Bus, and buffered IR input are linked through the Bus. Axium Bus is a 2 wire serial communication interface which provides inter-amplifier and controller... -
Page 9: Rs232 Port
RS232 Port The RS232 Asynchronous serial port provides data acquisition and control of Axium networks by a Home Automation System, or personal computer. Only one RS232 connection is necessary when interfacing with an Axium network. The lead must be ‘Null modem’ : 9 pin female ‘D’ connectors at both ends (pin connections 2 and 3 swapped at one end) See appendix1: RS232 protocol for more information. -

A keypad Macro may also be programmed as part of the Schedule. An Axium Keypad (connected to an amplifier) may be controlled, causing the keypad to emit it’s learnt IR strings. Thus Audio Source (CD, Tuner etc) control may be achieved via the AMPCTRL program.
