A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially available) to the projector. (See page 24 for connection.)

Info

When controlling the projector using RS-232C commands from a computer, wait for at least 30 seconds after the power has been turned on, and then transmit the commands.

After sending an input selection or picture adjustment command and then receiving an “OK” re- sponse code, the projector may take some time to process the command. If a second command is sent while the projector is still processing the first command, you may receive an “ERR” response code. If this happens, try resending the second command.

When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the response code for the previous command from the projector is verified.

“POWR????” “TABN _ _ _ 1” “TLPS _ _ _ 1” “TPOW _ _ _ 1” “TLPN _ _ _ 1” “TLTT _ _ _ 1” “TLTM _ _ _ 1” “TLTL _ _ _ 1” “TNAM _ _ _ 1” “MNRD _ _ _ 1” “PJN0 _ _ _ 1”

-When the projector receives the special commands shown above:

*The on-screen display will not disappear.

*The “Auto Power Off” timer will not be reset.

-The special commands are available for applications that require continuous polling.

Note

If an underbar (_) appears in the parameter column, enter a space.

If an asterisk (*) appears in the parameter column, enter a value in the range indicated in brackets under Control Contents.

*1 For setting the projector name, send the commands in the order of PJN1, PJN2 and PJN3.

*2 This command should be sent only after the “IRGB _ _ _ 2” command is sent and an “OK” response code is received.

*3 The Lamp Timer Reset command is available only in standby mode.
