Notes

When commands are transmitted serially, wait for the reply of the projector (acknowledge or not acknowledge) before sending the next command.

Adjustment commands include “ARG” (increase adjustment value) and “ALF” (decrease adjustment value). For usable items (marked "Yes"), send after the selection command.

The "Yes" marks in the input source columns indicate that that command can be used.
