Command name

The command name is a unique string of characters that indicates which command

the EF1210 should execute. Command names for different products are not necessar-

ily the same, since the function and features of each product are different. A list of

available EF1210 command names is shown in Table 5 on page 55.

Channel number

The channel number indicates which input channel, reference input, zone output or

memory slot the command is being applied to. It is not included in all commands.

Only commands that need to be applied individually, such as the AEC command,

include the channel number. Microphone input channels are denoted in this Com-

mand Set Reference by the character ‘n’. Reference inputs and Zone outputs are

denoted by the character ‘c’. Memory slot locations are denoted by the character ‘m’.

Command data

The command data is a string of up to 32 ASCII characters which follows the com-

mand name. The allowed content of the command data depends on which command

is being used. Usually, this is only one character because most commands just turn a

feature on or off. Some commands, however, may have several characters worth of

data.

Sending commands

to multiple devices

Commands can be sent to multiple devices by replacing the device type or Device ID

characters with the ‘*’ character.

Example

The following example commands illustrate the different ways you can send com-

mands to multiple devices by replacing the device type and/or Device ID with ‘*’

characters.
