APPENDIX
Control this projector by using a personal computer
This projector can be controlled by connecting a personal computer with RS-232C terminal.
Functions can be controlled by a personal computer:
• Turn the ON or OFF
• Changing input signals
• PCGC ( button input by remote control)
• Reading warning data
By making a programme, you can also control this projector by a personal computer automatically.

3) Control sequence
(1)
The command from a personal computer to the projector will be sent in 400ms.
(2)
The projector will send a return command 400ms after it has received an encode. if the command isn’t
received correctly, the projector will not send the retirn command.
(3)
The personal computer checks the command and confirms that if the command which has been sent has
been executed or not.
(4)
This projector sends various codes, other than the return code. When having a control sequence by RS-
232C, reject other codes by the personal computer side.

This projector uses RXD, TXD and GND lines for RS-232C control.
For RS-232C cable,the reverse cable should be used.
2) Control command diagram
The command is structured by the address code, function code, data code and end code. The length of the
command is different by each function.
