RS-232 serial port or the IR Port. To make IR control easy and painless, all IR codes are provided in a CCF format and are available on the FSR web site. These can be used in nearly any universal remote control or from any control system with IR output.
INSTALLATION The MAS-7000 mounts easily into a standard 19” rack. It should be placed in an area where the user can easily access the front panel controls. The units are designed to be rack mounted and are supplied with front rack- mount hardware.
FRONT PANEL CONTROL BUTTONS POWER ON OFF Pressing the power button will power up the MAS-7000. The unit will run a brief diagnostic sequence and be operational in a few seconds. Pressing and holding the power button for two seconds and releasing will power down the unit.
The silk-screening lists the various time delay settings in milliseconds. The dip switch values are 85ms, 43ms, 21ms, and 11ms. When a switch is moved to the “UP” position the delay is added to the audio. MAS-7000...

MAS-7000 RS232 CONTROL SPECIFICATION This section outlines how to control a unit via an RS232 or Ethernet link, using ASCII-based commands. It details how to send and receive serial data to perform many of the functions that a user has access to on the unit.
Carriage Returns Each packet that is sent to or received from the MAS-7000 is terminated with a carriage return. Carriage return has a value of 13 decimal, but is sent as a hex byte 0x0D. It will be represented in this document as <CR>.
