In short

Liking the roomie so far, I decided to control my Denon over serial but I can't get it to respond. — Staff replied: “Are you trying to write a custom command set? The codes for Denon serial are built into Roomie so there is no need to use a custom set.”

Been working at this over the weekend. The serial connection is fine. I can read status from it via Roomie or from iTest. However I can only get a few commands to work such as PW?<CR>. PWSTANDBY<CR> does not return anything.

Are you trying to write a custom command set? The codes for Denon serial are built into Roomie so there is no need to use a custom set.

Using he Serial AVR Zone 1 support I get the feedback such as the volume settings, but non of the commands have any affect. Just like the responses in iTest.

Also have a ticket into Denon support to see if they have any ideas.
