CUSTOM PRO MATRIX USER MANUAL
RS-232 and Telnet Commands
The Blustream Custom Pro matrix can be controlled via serial and/or TCP/IP. The following pages list all available commands for
the Custom Pro matrix chassis. Details of RS-232 pin assignment below:
Commonly Used Serial Commands:
There are several commands that are commonly used for control and testing:
STATUS Status will give feedback on matrix such as zones on, type of connection etc
? Lists all commands the matrix can accept
PON Matrix power on
POFF Matrix power o
OUTxxON (where xx is the zone number you wish to turn on)
example: OUT01ON (this would turn output 1 back on)
OUTxxFRyy (where xx is the zone out, yy is the input)
example: OUT01FR04 (this would switch output 1 to source input 4)
Common Mistakes:
• Carriage return – some programs do not require a carriage return, where others will not work unless sent directly aer the
string. In the case of some terminal soware the token <CR> is used to execute a carriage return. Depending on the program
being used, this token may be dierent. Some other examples that other control systems deploy include \r or 0D (in hex).
• Spaces – Blustream products do not require spacing between commands unless specified. There may however be some
terminal programs that will require spacing in order to work:
- How the string should look: OUT01ON
- How the string may look if spaces are required: OUT {Space} 01 {Space} ON
• Baud rate or other serial protocol settings not correct.
Baud rate: 57600 bps
Data bit: 8-bit
Parity: none
Stop bit: 1-bit
Flow control: none
