5.5.3 NULL Message

Bit 5-2

Reserved (Don't care)

Bit

1

1:Positive Horizontal sync polarity.

Bit

0

0:Negative Horizontal sync polarity.

1:Positive

Vertical

sync polarity.

 

 

0:Negative

Vertical

sync polarity.

H Freq: Horizontal Frequency in unit 0.01kHz

V Freq: Vertical Frequency in unit 0.01Hz

Ex.) When H Freq is '1''2''A''9' (31h, 32h, 41h, 39h), it means 47.77kHz.

5.5.3 NULL Message

STX

Command code

'B' 'E'

ETX

The NULL message returned from the monitor is used in the following cases;

A timeout error has occurred. (The default timeout is 10sec.)

The monitor receives an unsupported message type.

The monitor detects a packet BCC (Block Check Code) error.

To tell the controller that the monitor does not have any answer to give to the host (not ready or not expected)

Following operations need a certain time for to execute, so the monitor will return this message when another message is received during execution.

Power ON, Power OFF, Auto Setup, Input, PIP Input, Auto Setup and Factory reset.

Complete "NULL Message" command packet as follows; 01h-30h-30h-41h-42h-30h-34h-02h-42h-45h-03h-CHK-0Dh SOH-'0'-'0'-'A'-'B'-'0'-'4'-STX-'B'-'E'-ETX-CHK- CR

6.Typical procedure example

The following is a sample of procedures to control the monitor, these are examples of "Get parameter",

"Set parameter" and "Save current settings".

6.1. How to change the “Brightness” setting.

Step 1. The controller requests the Monitor to reply with the current brightness setting and capability

to support this operation. (Get parameter)
