10 ClarityAudio Serial Protocol, Version 1.01, 11/8/12
Basic Control
^=SZ @ zone,in$ or,
^=SZ. ch @zone,in$
Where:
@ zone = One (or more) zones to be mapped.
in = Input to map to given zone(s).
ch = Channel bitmap (Range 1-7).
‘SZ’ Examples
The ‘SZ’ command in its simplest form:
^SZ @1,@3,2$
maps the input ‘2’ to the zones ‘1’ and ‘3’. You can also map multiple zones and inputs using a single
command. For instance:
^SZ @1,2,@3,@5,7$
maps the input ‘2’ to zone ‘1’, and also maps the input ‘7’ to zones ‘3’ and ‘5’.
By appending a ‘.’ and a channel bitmap to the ‘SZ’ command, the command can also be used to
breakaway the different channels:
^SZ.2 @1,3
maps only the analog audio from input ‘3’ to zone ‘1’. The digital audio channels, on zone 1, remain
unchanged. (This assumes “classic” mode. See: “‘AUT’ Enable / Disable Auto Conversion of Ana-
log / Digital Paths” on page 31.)
The channel (the ‘.2’ in the above example) is a bitmapped number that indicates which channel or
channels are to be affected by the command.
The ClarityAudio can operate in two different modes, the classic mode, and the auto-conversion mode.
(For more information see: “‘AUT’ Enable / Disable Auto Conversion of Analog / Digital Paths” on
page 31.)
For the classic mode, the channels are mapped as:
2 = Analog Audio
4 = Digital Audio
For the auto-conversion mode, the channels are mapped as:
2 = Audio (both digital and analog)
By adding together the above numbers, you can switch any combination of channels without affecting
the unselected channels. (These examples are only valid in the “Classic” mode.)
For instance:
^SZ.2 @3,4$
would map only the analog from input ‘4’ to zone ‘3’.
To map both the component and digital audio channels, add the component and digital audio channel
numbers together: 5 = 4 + 1, and use that as the channel number:
^SZ.4 @2,@3,4$
This would map the digital audio channels from input ‘4’ to zones ‘2’ and ‘3’, leaving the analog audio
mappings unchanged.
There are two forms of the query response string, depending upon whether any channel breakaway
options are in affect.
