AudioControl Architect support

This thread is a feature request from 2014, preserved from the original Roomie Remote forum. It reflects what users were asking for at the time — many requests from this era have since shipped in Roomie Remote X. See current compatibility for today's device support.

In short

I have an AudioControl Architect 961 multi room amplifier that is about 10 years old. — A member replied: “So, I downloaded EditX 2008 for Windows, as suggested in another post. Here is my attempt at adding a custom device. It doesn't work. I think the problem is authentication.”

Question 2014-11 · older version

I have an AudioControl Architect 961 multi room amplifier that is about 10 years old. I have attached the IP/telnet control protocol. I believe that the protocol is still the same on their current models.

Could you add support for this model?

So, I downloaded EditX 2008 for Windows, as suggested in another post. Here is my attempt at adding a custom device.

It doesn't work. I think the problem is authentication. Codes are sent with an authenticated Telnet TCP/IP, using ASCII commands. Attached is my plist. I used the following to enter the credentials:

<key>.AUTH 1 FORMAT</key><string>USERNAME,PASSWORD</string>

Any suggestions?

With the help of Roomie support, I got it working by changing the auth lines to:

<key>.AUTH 1 FORMAT</key><string>UserID</string>

<key>.AUTH 2 FORMAT</key><string>Password</string>

New working plist is attached
