to “0” and use the SRP-X500P Manager software to make settings.

•For control of an LCD Data Projector VPL-PX15, use the CONTROL S connectors instead of the PROJECTOR CONTROL RS-232C connector. For details, see “PROJECTOR CONTROL CONTROL S IN/OUT connectors” (page 24).

PROJECTOR CONTROL CONTROL S IN/OUT connectors

These connectors are for the control of the VPL-PX15 LCD Data Projector.

In order to control the VPL-PX15 with the SRP-X500P, set the PROJECTOR PROTOCOL selector as described in the following table.

When the SRP-X500P is connected to the projector through the PROJECTOR CONTROL CONTROL S IN/ OUT connectors, the power status (on or standby) and input signal selection on the projector are linked with those on the SRP-X500P. Also, when a wired remote commander supplied with a projector is connected to the CONTROL S IN connector on the SRP-X500P, the projector settings can be performed on the SRP-X500P.

Connect the projector and the projector’s remote commander to the SRP-X500P as shown below.

•The following restrictions apply when a projector is controlled by the SRP-X500P via the PROJECTOR CONTROL CONTROL S IN/OUT connectors.

−Video signals input from the INPUT VIDEO A/B/C connectors are output to the OUTPUT VIDEO connector in composite format only.

−Video signals input from the COMPONENT/RGB D/ E connectors are output to the OUTPUT COMPONENT/RGB connector in either RGB or component format. Be sure to change the input signal format setting on the projector to match the format of the signal output from the SRP-X500P.

−When “OTHER TERMINAL” is selected using the SRP-X500P Manager software, the signal is automatically input to the INPUT B connector on the projector or the monitor.

REMOTE RS-232C connector

A PC installed with the SRP-X500P Manager software can be connected to the REMOTE RS-232C connector to make SRP-X500P settings from the PC. This connector can also be used to connect an external system controller to allow control of the SRP-X500P.

The specifications and the communication format for this connector are as follows:

Specifications

Connector type: D-sub 9-pin, male, inch screw type

Electric specifications: Conforms to RS-232C standards

Recommended cable: Multi-core shielded cable for data communications

Cable length: 15 meters (50 feet) or less

Communication format

Baud rate: 38400 bps

Bit length: 8 bits

Stop bit: 1 bit

Parity: odd

Notes

•To supply power to the remote commander from the SRP-X500P, use a stereo mini-plug cord to connect the remote commander to the SRP-X500P. When batteries are used to operate the remote commander, use a mini- plug cord to connect the remote commander to the SRP- X500P.

•When the projector’s wired remote commander is connected to the PROJECTOR CONTROL CONTROL S IN connector as illustrated above, the remote sensor on the projector does not function and all commands from the remote commander are transmitted through the

Note

Use an RS-232C cross cable to connect the SRP-X500P with a PC.

REMOTE PARALLEL connector

By connecting a simple circuit such as a switch or volume controller to the REMOTE PARALLEL connector, the SRP-X500P can be controlled remotely.

The specifications for this connector are as follows:
