ACOM Solid State PA

ACOM SSPA remote control and supervision

ACOM Controller is a minimalistic Windows application for controlling and monitoring the operation of ACOM power amplifiers 500S, 600S, 700S, 1200S, and 2020S via their RS-232 remote control interface. It has a small screen footprint and can be set to stay on top of, for instance, a logger.

It connects to COM1 by default but right-clicking the Standby button brings up a configuration menu to set COM port and PA model.

If you don’t know how to build a Windows application in Visual Studio, you can download an executable file from the release link below.
