Strip 0.25 inch off the wire insulation for all four wires. 2. Insert the exposed section of each wire into the appropriate opening on the captive wire connector according to the wiring diagrams shown in the Installation section of this manual. 3. Using a flat-blade screwdriver, turn the screws clockwise to secure the wire in the connector. Wiring the AXB-MIDI The AXB-MIDI requires 12.5 VDC to operate properly. The power can be supplied by the Central Controller's power supply and AXlink cable or with an optional 12 VDC power supply. The maximum wiring distance between the Central Controller and AXB-MIDI is determined by power consumption, supplied voltage, and the wire gauge used for the cable. AXlink data and power connections Connect the Central Controller's AXlink connector to the AXlink connector on the rear panel of the AXB-MIDI (see FIG. 1) for data and 12 VDC power, as shown in FIG. 3.

Pin 2 (shielded ground) is only connected on the THRU and OUT connectors. It is not connected on IN A and IN B. It is recommended that to maintain signal integrity when connecting to any MIDI device, cable lengths be no more than 20 feet (6.01 meters). ! Replacing the Lithium Battery A lithium battery (Figure 15), with a life of approximately 5 years, in the AXB-MIDI protects stored presets if a power loss occurs. The battery is not used when DC power is supplied to the AXB-MIDI. Write down the replacement date on a sticker or label by adding 5 years to the date of installation. Then attach it to the bottom of the AXB-MIDI. FIG. 6 Lithium battery and socket All control commands in AXB-MIDI memory are lost when the lithium battery is replaced. Contact your AMX dealer before you replace the lithium battery and verify that they have a current copy of the Axcess program for your AXB-MIDI. This will avoid any inadvertent loss of data or a service outage. AXB-MIDI MIDI Interface 5 Installation Static electricity can damage electronic circuitry. Before removing the lithium battery from the enclosure, discharge any accumulated static electricity from your body by touching a grounded metal object. You will need a flat-blade tool (non-conducting) that can be slipped under the lithium battery to pry it up and out of the socket. The location of the Lithium battery on the circuit board is shown in FIG. 7. rear Battery/socket front FIG. 7 AXB-MIDI circuit card, showing location of battery 1. Discharge the static electricity from your body. 2. Unplug all cables from the AXB-MIDI. 3. Remove the five pan-head screws on the top of the AXB-MIDI enclosure. 4. Pull the two enclosure halves apart and set the bottom portion of the enclosure on a flat surface. 5. Locate the battery on the circuit card. 6. Carefully pry the battery out of its socket and insert the new battery. Write down the next replacement date on a sticker or label by adding 5 years to the replacement date. Then attach it to the bottom of the AXB-MIDI. 7. Plug all cables back into the AXB-MIDI. 8. Place the top portion of the enclosure back onto the bottom portion. Then, refasten the five pan-head screws. 9. Reconnect the cables. There is a danger of explosion if you replace the battery incorrectly. Replace the battery with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used battery according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never recharge, disassemble, or heat the battery above 212°F (100°C). Never solder directly to the battery or expose the contents of the battery to water. 6 AXB-MIDI MIDI Interface Programming Programming Send Commands Send_Commands control AXB-MIDI signal routing by the Central Controller. The AXB-MIDI supports the Send_Commands described below. AXB-MIDI Send_Commands Command INA Description Syntax: Configure the destination for 'INA-' the incoming data on IN A Parameter: (see the IN A and IN B Signal = 0 to 7 Routing table on page 8). Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'INA-5' Routes incoming IN A data to THRU output and to the Central Controller. INB Configure the destination for the incoming data on MIDI IN B.(see the IN A and IN B Signal Routing table on page 8). Syntax: 'INB-' Parameter: = 0 to 7 Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'INB-7' Routes incoming IN B data to THRU output, OUT output, and transmit data to the Central Controller. RXACLR Clear characters waiting in the IN A receive buffer (to be sent to the Central Controller, MIDI THRU, or MIDI OUT). RXBCLR Clear characters waiting in the IN B receive buffer (to be sent to the Central Controller, MIDI THRU, or MIDI OUT). RXCLR Syntax: 'RXACLR' Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'RXACLR' Clears the IN A receive buffer of all contents. Syntax: 'RXBCLR' Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'RXBCLR' Clears the receive buffer contents for IN B. Syntax: Clear all characters waiting in 'RXCLR' both receive buffers (to be Example: sent to the Central SEND_COMMAND ,'RXCLR' Controller, MIDI THRU, or MIDI OUT). Clears the receive buffers or all content for IN A and IN B. RXON Syntax: Enable the ABX-MIDI to send 'RXON' received characters to the This command is automatically sent by the Central Controller when a Central Controller. CREATE_BUFFER program instruction is executed. Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'RXON' Sends received characters from IN A and IN B to the Central Controller. AXB-MIDI MIDI Interface 7 Programming AXB-MIDI Send_Commands (Cont.) Command RXOFF The AXB-MIDI will not pass on received characters to the Central Controller. This is the default. TXCLR Description Syntax: 'RXOFF' Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'RXOFF' Turns IN A and IN B transmit to the Central Controller off. Syntax: Clear all characters waiting in 'TXCLR' both transmit buffers (MIDI Example: THRU and MIDI OUT). SEND_COMMAND ,'TXCLR' Clears THRU and OUT transmit buffers. TXTHRUCLR Clear characters waiting in the MIDI THRU transmit buffer. Syntax: 'TXTHRUCLR' Clear characters waiting in the MIDI THRU transmit buffer. Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'TXTHRUCLR' Clears THRU transmit buffer. TXOUTCLR Syntax: 'TXOUTCLR' Clears characters waiting in the MIDI OUT transmit buffer. Example: SEND_COMMAND ,'TXOUTCLR' Clears OUT transmit buffer of all contents. IN A and IN B MIDI Signal Routing The following table shows all routing value possibilities for IN A and IN B incoming MIDI signals in relation to the AXB-MIDI rear panel connectors. The value determines where the IN A and IN B MIDI signals will be routed. IN A and IN B Signal Routing Value 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 X X X X X X X X X X X X THRU OUT AXlink The power-up default value is 3. Inputs are controlled as Channels 1 through 8. 8 AXB-MIDI MIDI Interface Programming MIDI Programming Most MIDI command strings consist of a status byte followed by one or two data bytes. The most notable exception to this is the System Exclusive which starts with a status byte of $F0, has 4 or more data bytes, then ends with a status byte of $F7. Status bytes are always $80 or greater. Status bytes are always denoted in hexadecimal. Data bytes are always less than $80 (128 in decimal). Data bytes may be denoted in either decimal or hexadecimal. Program change, Control change, and Note On/Off are the most often used of the MIDI "Channel Voice" commands. Since they are standard MIDI commands they are almost never explained in manufacturers programming manuals. Program change (Preset), Control change, Note On/Off, and System Exclusive. Programming examples The following section provides some programming examples: SEND_STRING MIDI,"$C0 + (MIDI_CHANNEL - 1), PROGRAM - 1" Specific example, to recall preset 128 on MIDI ch 1: MIDI_CHANNEL = 1 1-1=0 $C0 + 0 = $C0, PROGRAM = 128 128 - 1 = 127, thus the send string, SEND_STRING MIDI,"$C0,127" The Program change is denoted by status byte $C0 (for MIDI channel 1) through status byte $CF (for MIDI channel 16), followed by one data byte. PRGM EX. 1 SEND_STRING MIDI,"$90 + (MIDI_CHANNEL - 1), Note, Velocity" SEND_STRING MIDI,"$80 + (MIDI_CHANNEL - 1), Note, Velocity" (* Note On *) (* Note Off *) Note that On is denoted by status byte $90 (for MIDI channel 1) through status byte $9F (for MIDI channel 16), Note that Off is denoted by status byte $80 (for MIDI channel 1) through status byte $8F (for MIDI channel 16). PRGM EX. 2 SEND_STRING MIDI,"$80 + (MIDI_CHANNEL - 1), Note, 0" (* Note Off *) Most modern controllers send a $90 note on with velocity 0 for note off (We'll save the reason why for MIDI programming 102). PRGM EX. 3 AXB-MIDI MIDI Interface 9 Programming SEND_STRING MIDI,"$B0 + (MIDI_CHANNEL - 1), CONTROLLER, VALUE" Specific example set volume to 50% on MIDI ch 5: MIDI_CHANNEL = 5 5-1=4 $B0 + 4 = $B4, The standard MIDI Volume controller is 7, 127 * 50% = 64 (approximately), thus the send string, SEND_STRING MIDI,"$B4, 7, 64" Selected MIDI controller numbers: BANK SELECT MSB VOLUME PAN EXPRESSION GENERAL PURPOSE GENERAL PURPOSE GENERAL PURPOSE GENERAL PURPOSE BANK SELECT LSB HOLD = = = = = = = = = 64 = = = = = = = 0 7 10 11 (* A SECOND VOLUME CONTROL *) 16 17 18 19 32 (* 2nd data byte of 63 or less = OFF, 64 or greater = ON *) 91 92 93 94 95 120 (* 2nd data byte is always "0" *) 121 (* 2nd data byte is always "0" *) CONTROLLER CONTROLLER CONTROLLER CONTROLLER # # # # 1 2 3 4 = REVERB SEND EFFECTS 2 DEPTH CHORUS SEND EFFECTS 4 DEPTH EFFECTS 5 DEPTH ALL SOUND OFF RESET ALL CONTROLLERS The Control change is denoted by status byte $B0 (for MIDI channel 1) through status byte $BF (for MIDI channel 16), followed by two data bytes. PRGM EX. 4 MIDI_CHANNEL = 6 6-1=5 $90 + 5 = $95 Note = 60 Velocity = 96, thus the send string, SEND_STRING MIDI,"$95,60,96" To turn the same note off: SEND_STRING MIDI,"$95,60,0" Specific example, Middle C (Note #60) on, on MIDI ch 6. If you're not sure what velocity to use try something between 64 (half) and 127(full), how about 96? PRGM EX. 5 10 AXB-MIDI MIDI Interface Programming (* MMC STOP *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$01,$F7" (* MMC PLAY *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$02,$F7" (* MMC DEFERRED PLAY *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$03,$F7" (* MMC FAST FWD *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$04,$F7" (* MMC REW *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$05,$F7" (* MMC RECORD STROBE *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$06,$F7" (* MMC RECORD EXIT *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$07,$F7" (* MMC RECORD PAUSE *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$08,$F7" (* MMC PAUSE *) SEND_STRING MIDI,"$F0,$7F,$7F,$06,$09,$F7" Most System Exclusives start with $F0, then a three byte system exclusive address, then more data bytes as determined by the manufacturer, then an end byte of $F7. Unlike the channel voice messages which are part of the MIDI standard, the system exclusives are usually well explained in the manufacturers programming manual. One exception to this is MMC, or MIDI Machine Control. It's part of the MIDI standard. These MMC commands were captured from a Roland FC-200 MIDI Foot Controller. The address of "$F7,$F7,$06" means "Universal Realtime Message, Broadcast, MMC". Then there is a single data byte followed by the end byte $F7. PRGM EX. 6 Summary of MIDI Messages The following information refers to MIDI messages and Control Change Messages.
