This section specifies how RS-232 and the Infrared Emitter
should be wired to the Sharp projector.

A. 

RS-232 should be connected to the Sharp control port
labeled 

RS-232C

. Connection should be as follows:

1.  Wire the Panel to a female DB9 as follows:

TX to 2
RX to 3
GND to 5

 

2.

  Connect this female DB9 to the Sharp’s custom DB9 to

mini-DIN adapter cable. This cable is included with the
Sharp and is labeled 

RS-232C

.

 

3.

  Connect the Sharp custom cable to the projector port

labeled 

RS-232C IOIOI

.

B.  

Infrared should be wired to any Sharp infrared port.
Connection should be as follows:

1.   Wire the Panel to a female 1/8" Mini as shown; wire

IR/SER

 to 

tip

 and 

GND

 to 

ring.

 Direct wiring to the IR

Emitter is not recommended as it makes removal of the
Panel for service more difficult.

 
2.   Attach to any projector IR port using the Panel’s IR

Emitter (included with the Panel).

Note that the emitter glows red when IR is emitted so wiring
can be verified.

SPECIAL CONTROL NOTE

Read before attempting to control the projector

The C45XU can be configured with an 

Economy Mode

,

which determines whether or not the projector shuts itself
off in the absence of an input signal.

When installing the C45XU, 

you should set the Economy

Mode to OFF

This disables the Sharp’s 

Automatic

Power Shutoff

 feature.

Economy Mode is set via on screen menus, 

Options:

Economy Mode. 

Access the onscreen menus with either

the SmartPanel’s hidden functions, or the Sharp’s remote
control.
