(RS-232C) Specifications and Command Settings

PC control

A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, sold separately) to the projector. (See page 23 for connection.)

Communication conditions

Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table.

Signal format: Conforms to RS-232C standard.

Baud rate: 9,600 bps

Data length: 8 bits

Parity bit: None

Stop bit: 1 bit

Flow control: None

Basic format

Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and return code. After the projector processes the command from the computer, it sends a response code to the computer.

Info

When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the OK response code for the previous command from the projector is verified.

In the case of transmitting commands during standby, it takes a maximum of 30 seconds until the response code is received.

When the power is turned on during standby with the “POWER ON” command, wait for at least 30 seconds after the power has been turned on, and then transmit the next command.

Note

When using the computer control function of the projector, the projector’s operating status cannot be read by the computer. Therefore, confirm the status by transmitting the display commands for each adjustment menu and checking the status with the on-screen display. If the projector receives a command other than a menu display command, it will execute the command without displaying the on-screen display.

Commands

Example:

When “BRIGHT” of INPUT 1 image adjustment is set to –10.
