Connecting to the projector Ethernet port
Communicate with the projector through the Ethernet port.
1. Change the IP address of your computer to place your computer on the same subnet as the
projector.
Make sure the projector IP address is not the same as your computer IP address.
The default IP address of the projector from the factory is 192.168.206.110 with a subnet of
255.255.255.0.
2. Connect to the projector from your computer.
You can make the connection through an Ethernet cable or a wireless router.
3. On the TCP software, use port 5000.
Typically use software such as Net-Terminal, Kore Librarian, or PuTTY to connect to the
projector.
4. Start sending serial commands.
You may need to issue the UID command to give you the permission level required to run the
commands you want to send.
Correct command formatting
Add a space between the function code and the number when entering commands.
For example,
(PWR1)
can be entered as
(PWR 1)
.
Understanding the message format
Commands sent to and from C are formatted as simple text messages consisting of a three
letter function code, an optional four letter subcode, and optional data.

Example
From controller (Code Data)
SET (set the gamma file of the active
channel to index 1 from a previous
listing)
(GAM 1)
(Code+Subcode
Data)
SET (set the gamma file for the
specified channel to the specified file)
(GAM+CHAN "Media Block
Flat" "Gamma 2.4")
(Code ?)
REQUEST (what is current power
state?)
(PWR?) or (PWR ?)
(Code+Subcode ?)
REQUEST (what is the current time?)
(TMD+TIME?)
From projector
(Code Data)
REPLY (active gamma file)
(GAM! "Gamma 2.6")
(Code+Subcode
Data)
REPLY (current time is 12:18:49)
(TMD+TIME! "12:18:49")
Generally, Set and Reply messages have the same data in the same format, and Requests do not
contain any data.
