Info

•If you are controlling the projector from a computer using RS-232C commands, wait at least 30 seconds after turning the projector on before sending any commands.

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

•When using the computer control function of the projector, the projector’s operating status cannot be read by the computer. Therefore, confirm the status by transmitting the display commands for each adjustment menu and checking the status with the on-screen display. If the projector receives a command other than a menu display command, it will execute the command without displaying the on-screen display.

Commands

Example: To turn on the projector
