Operation

1Set “PARALLEL TYPE” of “REMOTE SETTING” to “MAKE” or “TRIGGER” in the SET-UP MENU.

2Short-circuit the 7th pin terminal (ENABLE) to the 8th pin terminal (GND) so that the monitor can be controlled by the external control.

3When selecting “MAKE” system: Operate each function by short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal (GND) or opening it.

When selecting “TRIGGER” system: Operate each function by pulse control, that is short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal (GND) for about 1 second and opening it.

When changing the input with MAKE system, only one pin terminal must be short-circuited. (Other pin terminals must be opened.)

When selecting the “TRIGGER” system, you can operate only one function at a time. Operate the functions one by one.

7Using the serial communication

You can control the monitor from a personal computer etc. via the RS-485 or RS-232C terminal.

• Consult your dealer for the details of the external control specification.

“Cr” is 0Dh.

The commands for starting communication (connection) (No. 1), terminating communication (termination) (No. 2), and turning on the monitor (No. 13) can be used while the monitor is off (on standby).

*1 Enter the monitor’s ID for “ **.” The initial setting of the monitor’s ID is “00.” When connecting several monitors, “00” is a command for controlling all monitors at once.

*2 Enter the appropriate data to “xx”.

*3 Displays the information shown when INPUT SELECT button of the current input is pressed (“About the Status Display” on page 7).
