RS-232C Communication (continued)
Requesting projector status (Get command)
(1) Send the request code Header + Command data (‘02H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes)+
‘00H’ +‘00H’) from the computer to the projector.
(2) The projector returns the response code ‘1DH’+ data (2 bytes) to the computer.
Changing the projector settings (Set command)
(1) Send the setting code Header + Command data (‘01H’+‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) + 
setting code (2 bytes)) from the computer to the projector. 
(2) The projector changes the setting based on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Using the projector default settings (Reset Command)
(1) The computer sends the default setting code Header + Command data (‘06H’+
‘00H’ + type (2 bytes) +‘00H’+‘00H’) to the projector.
(2) The projector changes the specied setting to the default value.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Increasing the projector setting value (Increment command)
(1) The computer  sends the increment  code  Header  + Command data  (‘04H’+
‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’+‘00H’) to the projector.
(2) The projector in creases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Decreasing the projector setting value (Decrement command)
(1) The computer  sends the decrement  code Header +  Command data (‘05H’+
‘00H’+ type (2 bytes) +‘00H’ + ‘00H’) to the projector.
(2) The projector decreases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
When the projector cannot understand the received command
When the projector cannot understand the received command, the error code ‘15H’ 
is sent back to the computer.
Sometimes the projector  cannot properly receive  the command. In such  a 
case, the command  is not executed  and the error code  ‘15H’ is sent  back to the 
computer. If this error code is returned, send the same command again.
When the projector cannot execute the received command.
When the projector  cannot execute the  received command, the error  code ‘1CH’ 
+ ‘xxxxH’ is  sent back to  the computer. When the  data length is greater  than 
indicated by the data length code, the projector ignore the excess data code.
Conversely when the  data length is  shorter than indicated  by the data length 
code, an error code will be returned to the computer.
NOTE • Operation cannot  be guaranteed when the  projector receives an undened 
command or data.
• Provide an interval of at least 40ms between the response code and any other code.
• The projector outputs test data when the power  supply is switched ON, and when the 
lamp is lit. Ignore this data.
• Commands are not accepted during warm-up.
