RS-232 Responses
iC-Net devices will send a response over the network whenever there is there is a change in status or command
from an IR remote or front panel.
Response String Structure
Characters in response strings are expressed in a combination of hex and ASCII characters. For clarity, the
following protocol examples use the following conventions:
• ASCII characters or strings are shown enclosed in single quotes
• Numbers shown that are not in single quotes are a single decimal byte
• Parameters shown in < > brackets are single byte
• A series of multiple commands or parameters are set apart by [ ] brackets
• Commas separate the bytes, but are not part of the protocol
• Double quotes enclose the command string, but are not part of the protocol
Command format:
“ ‘<’,,
‘>’ Starts the response
The zone or high order byte of the device
The unit or low order byte of the device (0 for global zone)
The number of response bytes to follow
The first response byte
Associated parameters, if any
