[RSSxxx] ou [RSExxx] –
These tags allows to send bytes onto the RS232 output.
When the folder is called, a list of bytes is transferred by the serial link in order to control other devices
(another player, switching grid, projector, ..) The bytes to send are included in a text file that will be
especially created for. Value by default : 19200 Bauds - 8 bits – no parity – 1 bit start – 1 bit stop
The file definition of the bytes to send must be named : serial.txt
This file will be copied in the SYSTEM folder of the media (memory card/flash drive)
[RSSxxx]: xxx appoint the number of the line of the file serial.txt that must be sent (value from 001 up
to 999) when player starts to play the folder
[RSExxx] : xxx appoint the number of the line of the file serial.txt that must be sent (value from 001 up
to 999) at the end of the folder
The «serial.txt» file is a text file (raw text without page setting ) that can be created with any easy text
editor like « notepad « from windows or similar. When recording, use «ANSI» coding . Do not use
special characters.
The file «serial.txt» of RS232 codes is a text file containing one or several lines. Each of these lines
will include a sequence of bytes expressed in hexadecimal and separated by a space ( from 00h to
FFh). You must only indicate the two characters of the wished hexadecimal value.
Each beginning of line of this file should present the following parameter:
#xxx : the xxx number of the line containing the bytes to send related to the xxx of the tag.
[RSS002]-> line #002 – the tag [RSS002] will send the sequence of bytes of the line #002 of the
serial.txt file.
The separator between each byte is a space.
Example of a line contained in the serial.txt file.
#001: 45 85 63 21 78 A5 B2
#002: 98 75 21 35 45 98
#100: 21 35 45 78 A5 B2
It is also possible to add comments in the file by using two times the type «/» (slash) = //
// example file
#001: 05 A1 FF E4 // comment in the line
#005: 45 85 63 21 78 A5 B2
#100: 98 75 35 45 98 // my command
//other command
#064: 48 25 Ce 8b
#128: 4C 8E D9 5A //
#999: a4 Fc 48 3e 8B
// comments at the end of the file
An example to allow the triggering of the reading of the
folder 001 for another VP200HDi.
