Note
●
When sending multiple commands, make sure to send
the next command only after receiving response from
the device. Colon (:) is not required when sending a
command that doesn’t require any parameter.
●
Sending an incorrect command will result in the
transmission of a command called “ER401” from the
device to the computer.
●
During the power supply “Standby” state (power
supply “Off” in the remote control), working of
commands other than the “PON” command is not
guaranteed.
●
Please contact your dealer for the details of
commands. Or, refer to the following support website.
