RS-232 COMMUNICATIONS

General Information
Baud rate: 9600 (fixed)

No Parity
All protocol in ASCII format
RS-232 input connector pin numbers:	TxD= Pin# 2

Command format (single command): command value (i.e. brightness 30).

NOTE: A space (not an underscore) or comma may be used between the command and its value.

Command string format: command,command value, command etc. (i.e. COMPOSITE,BRIGHTNESS 30,ANAMORPHIC)

NOTE: In between commands, a comma must be used; a comma or space may be used in between a command and its value.

Other notes:

·For command strings, a maximum of 255 characters can be used in a single string.

·If it is necessary to input multiple commands, they should all be together in a single string. Inputting commands one at a time requires a 15 second delay between commands, as the information is stored into non-volatile memory after each command.

·For values not automatically stored (see next paragraph), the command "!STORE" must be sent in order for the PFP-7/PFP-11to keep the settings. Otherwise, the values will be considered temporary and will revert to their stored settings upon source change or power-up.

·The "Value stored" column refers to a command that is either automatically stored or if it must be manually stored with the "!STORE" command.

·PARAMETER min/max refers to a function's minimum and maximum value range. Inputting values above or below their range may cause unpredictable (but not fatal) results.
