4. Command Sequence Below are examples of how to process remote control. When viewed from the controller, the following major phases exist in order to perform remote control. In the normal processing state, remote control is realized by combining various commands according to the specifications of the controller.
PAGE 22
4. Command Sequence 4.1. Communication start sequence The amount of time for the controller and the controlled device to start is different. Remote control is an act of controlling the controlled device from the controller, so the controller must wait for the controlled device to become ready. The controller needs to wait using the sequence below. • If an Ethernet connection is required, the remote controller needs to establish a logical session.
PAGE 23
4. Command Sequence Example when the controlled device starts earlier than the controller Remote controller Connected physically Starting Controlled device Device starting Device normal running Connection unknown devstatus runmode OK devstatus runmode "normal" Connection detection * With the first devstatus runmode request, a result notification is returned. Controller can recognize that Controlled device is ready to receive commands when there is response for "devstatus runmode" command.
PAGE 24
4. Command Sequence 4.2. Parameter sync sequence Immediately after communication starts, the controller does not know anything about the most recent status of the controlled device. Therefore, the controller must query all parameters that it plans to handle. This also applies for when preset recall is executed, because the controller does not know how the device has changed.
PAGE 25
4. Command Sequence Applying the most recent status of the controller to the device Remote controller Controlled device Running normally Connection detection Apply set VXL:Ch/InputVolume/Level 0 0 -775 Running normally Communication possible OK set VXL:Ch/InputVolume/Level 0 0 -775 "-7.75" set XXX/XXXXX/X/X/X/X/X X X XXXX Apply OK set XXX/XXXXX/X/X/X/X/X X X XXXX "XXXX" set XXX/XXXXX/X/X/X/X/X X X XXXX Apply OK set XXX/XXXXX/X/X/X/X/X X X XXXX "XXXX" ......
PAGE 26
4. Command Sequence 4.4. Meter data request/query sequence The controller requests meter data by specifying the meter data address and the minimum transmission interval. The meter transmission stops after 10 seconds. To continue receiving data, make another request before the 10 seconds pass.
