Controlling the Monitor with a PC (RS-232C)

You can control this monitor from a PC via RS-232C (COM port) on the PC.

You can also connect multiple monitors via a daisy chain by using a PC. By assigning ID numbers to each monitor (see page 30), you can make input mode selection/adjustment or can check the status of a specific monitor.

Precautions when the PN-ZB01 (optional) is attached

To control the monitor via RS-232C, set RS-232C/LAN

SELECT to RS-232C.

You cannot use RS-232C and LAN control simultaneously.
