For example: the “POWER ON” code in Hitachi projector manual is :
BE EF 03 06 00 BA D2
01 00
00 60
01 00
In the POWRE ON box,Input : be, ef, 03, 06, 00, ba, d2, 01, 00, 00, 60, 01, 00.
Then use the same input rule to input other code.
b. If the data is in the character string format, input ‘character string’.
For example: the “POWER ON” code in the SHARP C40/50 projector manual
is :
P O
W
E

“-“ is space
ˈ

In the POWER ON box, input ’POWR 1’, 0d, 0a
(Remarks: There are 3 spaces after POWER, 0d, 0a is enter.)
Input other codes in the same way.
c. If the data is in the numerical value and character format, then synthesize
the above-mentioned formats.

Once done, click “Add” to add your projector model, then Click “Send”.
Afterward, click “Ok”. Now, you can use the visualizer to control your projector.
4. Connect the visualizer’s projector control port to the RS232 port with a
RS232 cable

Please disconnect the computer from the RS232 port first
˅
.
Then use buttons on the operation panel to control the projector.
The visualizer provides a 6-pin to 9-pin RS232 cable. If this cable does not
match to your projector’s RS232 port, an additional RS232 cable is needed.
This additional RS232 cable can be made based on the pin location of the
projector’s RS232 control port. The pin locations of the visualizer are: the pin 1
is RXD (Received Data); the pin 5 is TXD (Transmitted Data); the pin 4 is GND
(Ground). Other pins are not defined. The pin location information of the
projector is provided by the projector’s manufacturer. The projector’s RS232
control port normally has RXD pin, TXD pin and
GND pin, the name may be different. The parallelism
of each data pin is shown as follows:
Visualizer’s RXD pin------------Projector’s TXD pin

Visualizer’s TXD pin------------Projector’s RXD pin
Visualizer’s GND pin------------Projector’s GND pin
5. If you can not use buttons on the operation panel to control the projector,
please use Code-Writing software’s projector control code testing function to
check if the control code is correct.
Click “Projector” button, the following dialog box appears as below:
Connect the visualizer to a computer with a RS232 cable (Please disconnect
the projector from the RS232 port first) and select the Baud Rate and Parity
based on the projector’s Baud Rate, then click the “TEST” button to pop up the
Projector Code Test dialog box, input the Baud Rate and Parity based on the
projector’s Baud rate, then click “Open”.
Click the projector control buttons on the visualizer’s operating panel to check
if the control code that the program received is the same as the sending code.
If the receiving code is same to the sending code, the input codes are correct.
If the visualizer can not control the projector, please do the following.
1. Check to see if the source control codes of projector are correct.
