RS-232C Port Specifications

PC control

A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C cable (null modem, cross type, sold separately) to the projector. (See page 16 for connection.)

Communication conditions

Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table.

Signal format:

Conforms to RS-232C standard.

Baud rate:

9,600 bps

Data length:

8 bits

Parity bit:

NONE

Stop bit:

1 bit

Flow control:

None

Basic format

Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and return code. After the projector processes the command from the computer, it sends a response code to the computer.

Command format

C1 C2 C3 C4 P1 P2

P3 P4

Return code (0DH)

Command 4-digits

Parameter 4-digits

 

Response code format

Normal response

O

K

 

Return code (0DH)

 

 

 

 

Problem response (communication error or incorrect command)

E

R

R

 

Return code (0DH)

 

 

 

 

 

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

When using the computer control function of the projector, the projector operating status cannot be read to 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 com- mand without displaying the On-screen Display.

Commands

EXAMPLE

When “BRIGHT” of INPUT 1 IMAGE ADJUSTMENT is set to 10.
