RS-232 Connection
The Serial (RS-232) connection on the Anthem receiver should be connected with a straight through cable to the XP series processor serial adapter.
The baud rate of the Serial (RS-232) port can be set at either 19200 or 115200. Default is set to 115200.
Driver Notes
- Variable initialization for the zones (Main, and Zone 2) only happens the first time the zone is turned on. If the zone is already on, a power cycle of the zone may be required.
- It is recommended that while using the driver, controlling the Anthem receiver by any means other than the driver commands be kept to a minimum as the Anthem receiver does not offer unsolicited feedback.
- Multimedia control and navigation is available via on screen only.
Note - This driver is NOT compatible with AVM Processors.
