I am successfully controlling this receiver via RS232, and most of the status request commands work properly with the exception of the Sirius tuner status requests.
These are the codes that I am using from the code list provided by Marantz:
SIRIUS
Station Name | | @CHN#?\r |
SIRIUS
Artist Name | | @ARN#?\r |
SIRIUS
Song Title | | @SON#?\r |
SIRIUS
Composer | | @CTN#?\r |
SIRIUS
Category Name | | @CTN#?\r |
They all come back as @ with a square next to it. I'm guessing this means that the receiver doesnt recognize the command.
They should come back as @CHN#xxxxxxxx (where the x's are the station name)
What is also strange, is that if I send the XM status request commands (which I don't have connected) it returns the command and a bunch of blank characters. This makes me think that an XM tuner would be working just fine with these commands.
I am using a SCH2P sirius tuner plugged directly into the sirius port of the Marantz receiver. All the channel and song info show up properly on the Marantz display. I tried the command via Hyperterminal and a Nevo Q50. Same result with both attempts.
Has anyone been able to make this work?
