IRT-232 IR Transceiver to RS-232 Wireless I/O Device
The secondary two-way data port on the Cinema Rhapsody Mach II is the IR trans-
ceiver located in the front panel. Not only does this transceiver receive infrared com-
mands, it also transmits the Cinema Rhapsody's feed back out in IR form. Using an
ADA IRT-232 IR Transceiver to RS-232 hand-held box, you can run the Cinema Ref II
PCOS software on your lap-top PC and communicate to the Cinema Rhapsody Mach
II without any hardwired connections, directly through the Cinema Rhapsody's front
panel. When using the IRT-232, the Cinema Rhapsody Mach II must be set to a Baud
Rate of 1200 Baud with the front panel IR Active.
PC Setup & Control Software
The Cinema Ref. II PCOS software is ideal for setup and calibration of the Cinema Rhapsody. While
all setup operations in this technical manual are capable of being fully executed using the front panel
knobs on the Cinema Rhapsody Mach II, the PC software will most definitely reduce the time spent
programming the unit. It permits you to program: the editing of input labels; assigning A/V jacks and
default modes to input labels; setting up speaker groups, tone frequency points, tone levels, and
setting tone presets; speaker size setup and crossover; channel levels and balance presets, delay
levels; bass limiter and bass
management settings; all vol-
ume related adjustments and all
volume preset features. Fur-
thermore, the software permits
configurations to be saved inter-
nal to the PC for use at a later
time. The software permits you
to fully control the Cinema
Rhapsody Mach II even after
your setup is complete. You can
communicate to the Cinema
Rhapsody Mach II from your PC
through a hardwired connection
using an ADA ISO-232 (at either
1200 or 19200 Baud) or wire-
less through the units front
panel IR Transceiver using an
ADA IRT-232 (1200 Baud Only
- IR Transceiver must be active).
For those who desire to capture
IR commands into learning
remotes, in particular IR com-
mands that are not available in
the IR remote control that ships
with the Cinema Rhapsody
Mach II, ADA suggests using
your PC, the Cinema Ref II
PCOS software, and an IRT-
232. Any button press in the PC
software is translated to an in-
frared command which can
readily be captured instead.
