Controlling the Projector by a Computer

When the RS-232C terminal on the projector is connected to a computer with a DIN-D-sub RS-232C adaptor (optional: AN-A1RS) and an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially available), the computer can be used to control the projector and check the status of the projector. Refer to the “SETUP GUIDE” contained on the supplied CD-ROM for details.
