Projector set-up

Setting the projector address

The projector's address may be set to any value between 0 and 255.

When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now by

:

ρ the RCU for addresses between 0 and 9.

0

ρa IBM PC (or compatible) or Apple MAC for addresses between 0 and 255.

Addressable with RCU

Addressable with PC, MAC

or workstation

9

255

Setting the address is a hardware SET-UP of your projector which must be done during installation. Use the 8 DIP switches provided on the controller board labelled 'Projector Address'.

Each DIP switch has its own decimal value. The sum of the values associated to those DIP switches gives the address. As shown in the table, if Switch No. 1 is set to ON, it represents a decimal value of 128, Switch No.2 for 64, Switch No.3 for 32, and so forth.

In the given example, the projector address is set to 202 :

DIP switch No. : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Position ON/OFF : 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0

Sum : 1x128 + 1x64 + 0x32 + 0x16 + 1x8 + 0x4 + 1x2 + 0x1 = 202

Factory preset address = 0

Note :

When the address button on the RCU is pressed, the projector will display its own address on the screen. Once the address button is pressed, to continue using your RCU, it is necessary to enter an address, even when the displayed address is correct. Use the numeric keys to enter the address.

For more information, please refer to the Owner's Manual of this projector.
