Establishing Serial Communication

* Connect the RS-232C (serial connector) of the PC to the RS-232C connector at the back of the projector.
* You need to purchase a cable to connect the RS-232C connectors as it is not provided as an accessory.

• Parity: none

• Stop bit: 1 bit

• Flow Control: none

• Communication code: ASCII code

1. Transmission

[Command1] [Command2] [ ] [Set ID] [ ] [Data] [Cr]

* [Command1]: The first command to control the projector (k. j, x, ASCII code, 1 Character)
* [Command2]: The second command to control the projector (ASCII code, 1 Character)
* [Set ID]: An ID used to select a set to control; the ID is allocated to each set in the Special Menu in the range of ‘1~99’.
If Set ID is set to ‘0’, you can control all the sets.
* [Data]: Used to send data necessary to the commands mentioned above. If it is in ASCII code, 2 characters are sent.
* If the data is ‘FF’, it means data read mode.
* [Cr]: Carriage Return
It means ASCII code ‘0x0D’.
* [ ]: ASCII code character corresponding to “Space Bar” separating command, Set ID, and data.

Communication Protocol

Serial Communication Function

* If the projector is connected to a PC through an RS-232C cable, you can use the PC to control functions of the projector

such as power On/Off or input selection, etc.

* You cannot use RJ45 AND RS-232C simultaneously. For serial communication, use LAN Off in the Network Settings.
