This allows you to choose in the individual rooms between a highquality stereo sound or an exciting Home Cinema experience. The Multiroom system is operated either through a M208 remote control or a wall-mounted panel, which in many cases is available in a design to match existing switch programs. [. . . ] For this purpose, you need an additional Access Point or WLAN Router for the radio transmission, as shown in the Figure Function Plan on Page 19. The corresponding M230 or M231 control softwares can be found on the Revox Homepage. As well as operation through the Revox service programs, the M10 also offers the option to influence the Revox Multiroom System and/ or to let feedback messages be directed specifically into a visualisation, through the use of a primary (domestic) control system. The programmer can get a simple access to the Revox system through a UDP protocol (Revox Mtext protocol). A further tool that is supported by the M10 Ethernet interface is the M233 Display for Display panels in visualised domestic controllers. The following page gives you an initial overview of the M-Text protocol and the M233 Display panel. Please visit the Download area on the Revox Homepage for further information. 16 M10 Re:system M-Text Protocol (UDP) As well as understanding the Revox internal M-Link protocol, the M10 Ethernet interface with the software version 1. 10 or higher also understands the clear text commands (M-Text protocol) in ASCII format. This makes it possible to integrate the Revox system in a domestic control system, e. g. As the name M-Text implies, it is a very understandable protocol, which simplifies the programming, as commands are not in an encrypted form but in English. The following is an example of a Revox M-Text command where the function is instantly recognisable. In this case it concerns increasing the volume: xx:IR:VOLUME_UP M233 Display panel The M233 software is a General User Interface GUI or also known as OSD for the Revox Multiroom System, which can be installed on a Windows XP platform as part of a Touchscreen display. This makes it possible to control each room in the Revox Multiroom system through the visualisation. The data traffic runs over the Ethernet interface integrated in the M10. Each Re:system slave integrated in the Multiroom needs its own M202 Ethernet interface. The size, colour and position of the M233 display within the visualisation on the Touchscreen display is defined one-time in the corresponding ini file. 17 M10 Re:system Connection Point-to-Point A Crossover cable is used if the M10 is connected directly to a PC. Distribution with Router A Patch cable (1:1) is used of the two devices are connected over a router. You will find an overview of a possible Ethernet network on the next page. The defined IP addresses are only examples and must be modified to meet the needs of the particular installation. This means that all the necessary settings for a fault-free integration of the M10 in an Ethernet system must be made manually. You will find details about this in the Chapter M10 Setup. 18 M10 Re:system Functional plan The IP addresses shown above are only examples and must be modified to meet the needs of the particular installation. 19 M10 Re:system M10 Setup A PC or a Notebook is always needed for the initial configuration of the M10, which is connected to the M10 using the RS232 interface or the USB socket . Using the M230 Revox program of M-Scope (Display view), the main menu shown below for the M10 setup can be called with the setup key. The Setup menu appears as follows, if the Multiroom module is not installed: Ethernet Setup The Ethernet setup is reached through the Ethernet softkey. [. . . ] The TV button is only available with remote controls, but not with wall-mounted keypads. If the same audio source in the other zones should also be activated with the same, previously selected Remote button, this completes the required setting. You can check whether the same setting is actually present in the other zones with the Zone softkey. This is shown through the setting: - Zone x Remote button xxx is selecting the same as Zone 1 27 M10 Re:system If, on the other hand, the Remote button should activate a different source in one or more zones, you switch zones with the Zone button. In the newly selected zone, another audio source can now be assigned to the same Remote button. [. . . ]
