Remote commands
There are two types of commands,
key commands
and
operation commands
.
All commands consist of ASCII text strings, starting with two letters: ‘
ky
’ for key commands and ‘
op
’ for operation commands. All commands
end with an ASCII Carriage Return character
(code 13).
Key commands
Key commands are used to simulate remote control key presses and use the following format:
•
ky <keyname>
Example
•
ky pow.on
simulates the
POWER ON
key being pressed.
Operation commands
Operation commands are used to simulate menu operations and determine the settings of the projector, and use the following format:
•
op <operation> <command>
•
The <operation> string determines which setting the command will affect. For example, “aspect” stands for aspect ratio.
•
The <command> string can take one of the following formats:
Command
<command>
Description
Set
= <value>
Makes the setting take that value.
Get
?
Asks what the current value is.
The value is returned as an ASCII text string.
Increment
+
Adds 1 to the current value.
Decrement
–
Subtracts 1 from the current value.
Execute
(none)
Performs an action.
Examples
op aspect = 1 [CR]
sets the aspect ratio to TheaterScope.
op aspect ? [CR]
asks what is the current aspect ratio.
op [CR]
increments the brightness setting.
op contrast – [CR]
decrements the contrast setting.
op resync [CR]
commands the projector to attempt to re-synchronise to the current input source.
Notes
See how to connect to the projector
using the RS232 input in the
Connection Guide
.
Spaces in commands are
necessary, therefore:
●
ky pow.on
is
correct
;
●
kypow.on
is
incorrect
.
●
op aspect = 1
is
correct
;
●
opaspect=1
is
incorrect
.
