4.6 Projector Address
4.6.1 Controlling the projector
Projector address
Address installed in the projector to be individually controlled.
Common address
Default address. Projector will always execute the command comming from a RCU programmed with that common address.
Why a projector address ?
As more than one projector can be installed in a room, the seperate projector should be seperately addressable wiht an RCU or computer. There for each projector has its own address.
Set up an individual Projector Address.
The set up of a projector address can be done via the software. See ’Change projector address’Change Projector Address, page 79 in chapter ’Service mode’.
Projector controlling.
Every projector requires an individual address between 0 and 255 which can be set in the Service mode.
When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now:
•RCU for addresses between 0 and 9.
•computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc. for addresses between 0 and 255.
A projector will respond to a RCU set to the common address (’0’ or ’1’) regardless of what address is set in the projector itself.
The RCU is default programmed with address 0 or 1, ’common address’. With that ’common address’ pro- grammed into the RCU, every projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by this RCU. If it is necessary to control a specific projector, than enter the projector address into the RCU (only when that address is between 0 and 9). The projector with the corresponding address will listen to that specific RCU.
Common Address
Every projector has a common address ’0’ or ’1’. The choice between ’0’ and ’1’ can be selected in the Service mode.
4.6.2 Displaying and Programming addresses Displaying the Projector Address on the Screen.
1.Press Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil. The projector’s address will be displayed in a ’Text box’
To continue using the RCU with that specific address, it is necessary to enter the same address with the digit buttons (address between 0 and 9) within 5 seconds after pushing the address key. For example : if the Address key displays projector address 003, then press "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU’s address to match the projector’s address. Do not press 003 digits. This will address the remote control to ’0’ and control all projectors in the room. If the address is not entered within 5 seconds, the RCU returns to its default address (zero address) and control all projectors in the room.
