Read Command Examples

Command Control via the Network (continued)

A write request example:

(AAA####) where (starts the command

AAA denotes the command

####denotes the value to be written

(leading zeros not necessary) ) ends the command

Some commands have ranges, while others are absolute. If a number greater than the maximum range is received, it is automatically set to the maximum number for that function. If a command is received that is not understood, a "?" is returned. With absolute settings, "0" is off, 1-9999 is on. The one exception is the Power command, where 0 is off and 1 is on.

To assure the projector can process a command, wait 3 seconds before entering the next command.

Function	Command	Response
Brightness	(BRT140)	Sets the brightness to
		140
Power	(PWR0)	Turns power on
Power	(PWR1)	Turns power off

Error Conditions

Not all commands are supported for all projectors. If an unsupported command is issued, the command will be ignored. If a command is received that is not understood, a ‘?’ character will be returned indicating the command was not understood.

Limitations

The projector cannot respond to commands coming in at a high-rate. Therefore, a delay must occur between commands to ensure that the command gets properly executed. To assure the projector can process a command, wait 3 seconds before entering the next command.

The Step column refers to increasing or decreasing the menu bar position since the On-screen Display is not an exact match of values. For example, Step 2 changes the data by 2 through the CLI (Command Line Interface). The menu bar is up (or down) by 1.
