NOTE

•This TV has only limited PC compatibility, correct operation can only be guaranteed if the video card conforms exactly to the VESA 60Hz standard. Any variations from this standard will result in picture distortions.

RS-232C port speciﬁcations

PC Control of the TV

•When a program is set, the TV can be controlled from the PC using the RS-232C terminal. The input signal (PC/video) can be selected, the volume can be adjusted and various other adjustments and settings can be made, enabling automatic programmed playing.

•Attach an RS-232C cable cross-type (commercially available) to a 9 pin D-sub/MINI-DIN (optional: AN-A1RS) for the connections.

NOTE

•This operation system should be used by a person who is accustomed to using PCs.

9 pin D-sub/MINI-DIN conversion cable (optional: AN-A1RS)

RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially available)

Communication conditions

Set the RS-232C communications settings on the PC to match the TV’s communications conditions. The TV’ s communications settings are as follows:

Baud rate:	9,600 bps
Data length:	8 bits
Parity bit:	None
Stop bit:	1 bit
Flow control:	None

Communication procedure

Send the control commands from the PC via the RS- 232C connector.

The TV operates according to the received command and sends a response message to the PC.

Do not send multiple commands at the same time. Wait until the PC receives the OK response before sending the next command.

Make sure to send “A” with the carriage return and conﬁ rm that “ERR” returns before operating.
