Thanks Duct Tape!

Looks really good and makes my life a whole lot easier... still stuggling to understand the RS232 structure for the Pioneer Elite FPJ-1, where I have some commands in the "normal" RS232 structure and then other commands in binary code... have no idea how to add the binary ones... Also, for the Krell HTS 7.1, I really don't understand the code structure at all... Ex. the command "UP" is UPZ, ok great, is that all I need?! Or do I need any kind of starting command, ending command? Serial programming is frustrating, but I'm looking forward to the control it awards me.
