Hegel Röst IP Control Codes
21.10.2016 JJ
The Röst can be controlled through a TCP/IP connection on port 50001. The control interface can easily be tested by using a telnet terminal (like Tera Term). A control packet has the following structure: -[command].[parameter]<CR>. For example: the control packet -v.50<CR> will set the Röst volume control to 50%.
If an invalid control packet is sent to the Röst, the Röst will return an error (e) command.
The table below describes the commands and parameters that are available. Only the highlighted parameters are used to send device status updates from the Röst to the controller. The «?» parameter will cause the Röst to send the current status for that command.

The Hegel Röst does not have a true standby mode. However, the power command still functions by disconnecting all outputs and dimming the display.
Balanced is input number 1, Analog 1 input number 2, and so on.
The conversion from volume% to volume level rounds up. Conversion from volume level to volume % rounds down.
Useful to make sure the TCP connection is reset, if the controller does not close the connection properly.
Sending -i.4<CR> sets the input selector to the Coaxial input.
If the Röst max volume is set to 70, sending
-v.96<CR> will set it to volume level 68 and return
-v.97<CR>.
Sending -r.3<CR> every 2 minutes, will ensure that the connection is reset in the event of a controller power reboot; allowing the controller to reconnect.
