- AB-100 AudioBrick Configuration -
To configure the system through the serial port, you need to connect the
system just as you do for any serial communications (see the 'AB-100
AudioBrick Serial Port Commands' section of the manual). The configuration
mode is entered by the command:
"m" (5AA5) (TRACK#)
This command will bring up the following menu from the Repeater which
was addressed.
EXAMPLE: to bring up the configuration screen for a card addressed as
Ôtrack 00Õ (this is the normal default configuration address when a Repeater
is shipped):
m5AA500
This would bring up the following configuration screen (the screen shown
is the default configuration):

Enter command- _
The (5AA5) part of the command is a key to keep this mode from being
inadvertently entered. The card addressed by the TRACK# will put a config-
uration menu on the screen. When this mode is entered by any card, it dis-
ables all of the other serial commands on all the cards in the system. As with
the normal serial command mode, the upper and lower 'case' of all input
is important. An 'a' is a command while an 'A' is a number. All numeric val-
ues are entered in HEX (0 - 9, A - F).
If another command is entered while the last command is waiting for
additional input, the new command will be started. If at any point you
enter a command in error and it is waiting for additional input, you can
leave the command by entering an <ESC>ape key. With the exception of
the GROUP ENABLE and PA ZONE ENABLE commands, this will leave the origi-
nal configuration unaltered. These two commands will only be changed up
to the point where you <ESC>aped.
