<01>

...

<02>

1 1 1 1 Varies 1 1 1 <= size in bytes

Read = ‘R’ or <52>, Write = ‘W’ or <57>

Device number of the sender: <7F> is normally used.

The bytes in RED can be inserted many times inside a single Protocol String. There is no limit in the number of

combo as long as the whole block (from <01> to <02>) is less than 256 bytes. When a

is received, the corresponding new parameters are stored in the memory. However, it is

processed only when a (<1F>) is received. The can be inserted more than once if multiple

actions are desired, eg. Mute multiple channels at the same time.

The

is used to identify the types of value following the header.

Command Header <03 to 07>; <03> = 4 bytes … <07> = 8 bytes

Command ID in ASCII character

Device Header

<08> Device # where this command is sent to

I/O Header

<09> Input / Output section of the device

Channel Header

<0A> Channel #

Aux Header

<0B> For extra information such as EQ Num, FBX Num ,etc

Device Value

<20> for Device 0... <2F> for Device 15

I/O Value

<20> for Input, <21> for Output

Channel Value

<20> for Channel 0... <27> for Channel 7

Aux Value

<20> for Aux # 0... <1F> for Aux #31

Column Value

Used in Special Commands, see related table in this document

Data Value

For the list of Data values, see related table in this document

Note: For Data values > <60> (96 in decimal), convert the data into a Base 96 number. Add <20> to each digit to get

the Hex bytes. This restricts all Data value hex bytes between <20> and <7F>.
