Introduction
This manual explains how you can control the V-Mixer via RS-232C.
This document is written for the following V-Mixer:
• M-480
• M-400
• M-380
• M-300
• M-200i
For details on the V-Mixer itself, please refer to the each V-Mixer’s owner’s manual.
This document assumes that you have a general understanding of computers. For details on computer terminology and
usage, please refer to other documentation.
Please be aware that the contents described in this document are subject to change without notice.

Handshaking
When data is sent from the computer and the V-Mixer’s processing speed is slower than the speed of the incoming data,
something must be done to prevent part of the data from being lost. Conversely, when data is transmitted from the V-Mixer
and the computer’s processing speed is slower than the arriving data, loss of data can occur in the same way.
For this reason, the V-Mixer uses “Xon/Xoff” handshaking. The external computer can control the transmission from the V-
Mixer in the same way.
• “Xon”: This signal is named DC1 (11H) in ASCII code; it is a control code requesting that transmission be started.
• “Xoff”: This signal is named DC3 (13H) in ASCII code; it is a control code requesting that transmission be stopped.

Setup
Setup procedure
To set up the V-Mixer and the computer that will control it, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the control computer.
Use a RS-232C cable to connect your computer and the V-Mixer.
☞ “Connection with the control computer” (p. 6).
2. Power up the computer that will be controlling the V-Mixer.
3. Make settings for the control computer
Perform the communication settings.
☞ “Settings on the control computer” (p. 6).
4. Make settings on the V-Mixer.
Perform the communication settings.
☞ “Settings on the V-Mixer” (p. 6).
5. Start operating the V-Mixer.
Control computer —> V-Mixer data transmission will begin.
Connection with the control computer
1. Power off the V-Mixer and the computer.
2. On the rear panel of the V-Mixer, set the RS-232C/MIDI switch to the RS-232C position.
* When you are using M-200i, turn on the power and then select “RS-232C“ under RS-232C/MIDI SELECT paramter.
Refer to the M-200i’s owner’s manual for details.
3. Use an RS-232C cable to connect the RS-232C connector of your computer to the RS-232C connector located on the
back of the V-Mixer.
☞ For details on the cable to use, refer to “Connector and cable” (p. 5).
Settings on the control computer
1. Communication settings on the computer
Communication method Synchronous (asynchronous), full-duplex
Communication speed 4800 / 9600 / 14400 / 31250 / 38400 / 57600 / 115200 bps
You can select this as desired, but it must be the same as the setting on the V-Mixer.
Parity none
Data length 8 bit
Stop bit 1 bit
Code set ASCII
XonXoff on
* For details on how to set the communication settings, refer to the owner’s manual of the computer you’re using.
Settings on the V-Mixer
When you power up the V-Mixer, the communication speed will be set to 115200 bps by default. If you’re using the V-Mixer
via RS-232C, you’ll need to set its communication speed to match the setting of the computer.
For details on how to set this, refer to the each V-Mixer’s owner’s manual.

Overview of commands
The V-Mixer and the control computer communicate via commands. There are several types of commands, and you can
control the V-Mixer by using the command that’s appropriate for your purpose.
Overview of commands
Single-byte alphanumeric characters are used for commands. In general, the command syntax is an ASCII string consisting of
“stx” and “three uppercase letters” followed by a “;” (semicolon). The three letters indicate the type of command. However,
there are other types depending on the command.
☞ “Command syntax” (p. 8).
* “stx”: This is the name of the signal in ASCII code (code number 02H in hexadecimal); it is a control code that indicates the beginning
of a command.
* “;”: This code lets the V-Mixer detect the end of the command.
<Ex.> To transmit the ** command, transmit the ASCII string “stx**;”
Protocol
Depending on the command, there are two types of communication protocols between the control computer and the V-
Mixer.
● When specifying an operation or setting for the V-Mixer
This type corresponds to the “Control commands” (p. 11). These commands use the procedure shown in the
following diagram.
fig.PrtConcept1.eps
COMPUTER V-Mixer
a. Transmit the command from the computer to the V-Mixer.
b The V-Mixer will output “ack” if the command was received correctly, or an ERR command in case of invalid
reception.
* “ack”: This is the ASCII code name of the control code (06H in hexadecimal) acknowledging successful reception.
* Invalid reception corresponds to cases in which the syntax of the received command was incorrect.
a. stx + command
b. ack or stxERR command
* stxERR is the command used to transmit or receive an error indication.
7
Overview of commands
● To learn the settings of the V-Mixer
This type corresponds to the “Request commands” (p. 36). Commands used to check the status of a setting in the V-
Mixer use the following procedure.
fig.PrtConcept2.eps
COMPUTER V-Mixer
a. Transmit the command from the computer to the V-Mixer.
b If the V-Mixer receives the command correctly, it will send back a command containing the information that was
requested. If the command was not received correctly, an ERR command will be sent back.
c If the output of the V-Mixer was received correctly, an “ack” will be sent back. (* This “ack” can be omitted.)
* If the ERR command is sent to the V-Mixer, the V-Mixer will re-transmit the command it sent in step “b.” This command can also be
omitted; instead of returning anything, you can repeat the procedure from step “a.”
a. stx + command
b. stx + command or stxERR command
c. ack or stxERR command
* The V-Mixer will not transmit anything when a setting is changed by a controller operation on the V-Mixer itself.
Command syntax
There are several possible types of syntax for commands (control signals).
Type 0: Commands consisting only of a control code
“;” is not added to these. They consist only of the control code.
<Ex.> ack
Type 1: Commands that have no parameters
These commands end with “;”.
<Ex.> stxVRQ;
Type 2: Commands that have parameters
Command: parameter, parameter...;
• The command is separated from the parameters by a “:” (colon).
• Parameters are separated by a “,” (comma).
• The end of the parameters is indicated by a “;” (semicolon).
* No spaces or tabs are allowed between commands or parameters.
8
Overview of commands
Input parameters
In general, parameters are given as decimal numbers or letters, and are of variable length.
stxFDC:I1,-25; / stxFDC:I12,0; / stxFDC:AX16,0; / stxFDC:MA,-10;
Output parameters
Parameters are generally given in decimal or alphabetic form, and their length may vary.
stxFDS:I5,-12; / stxFDS:I24,0; / stxFDS:AX8,-6; / stxFDS:MA,-12;
Cautions during use
Do not perform the following actions while the control computer and the V-Mixer are communicating. Doing so may cause
the V-Mixer to malfunction.
• Disconnect the RS-232C cable
• Power off the V-Mixer

Command details
Channel selection parameters
Some commands have a parameter that select a channel, DCA group, MUTE group, or user fader. These parameters are called
the “channel selection parameter.” The relationship between the V-Mixer’s channels and channel selection parameters are
shown below.

Commands sent from the control computer to the V-Mixer
The following three types of commands are sent from an external device to the V-Mixer.
● Control (execution) commands
These commands are used to adjust the volume and to make various settings.
● Request commands
These commands are used to check the current state of the V-Mixer’s settings.
* After performing a control operation, you should use a request command to check the state of the settings.
● Reply commands
Commands such as “ack” and “ERR” are in this category. These commands are used to reply to the V-Mixer when a
request command is used.

Note:
<Ex.> stxMXC: AX1,MX1,4.0,R30;
Sets the MATRIX 1 send level to +4.0 dB, and the MATRIX pan to R30 for AUX 1.
If you set the MATRIX send level for a stereo-linked channel, both L and R channel will be set. However, the MATRIX pan can
be set individually for L and R.
If you set the MATRIX send level for either MAIN L or R channel, both MAIN L and R channel will be set. However, the MATRIX
pan can be set individually for MAIN L and R.
If you specify a MATRIX channel that is not stereo-linked, the V-Mixer will ignore the MATRIX pan parameter.
In the following cases, the V-Mixer will return an ERR command ( stxERR:5; ) and will ignore your command:
