RS232 commands over the network
The PS-Series also supports extending access to the RS232 commands over a network connection.
Below are the steps to follow for controlling the display over LAN through the RJ45 connector.
1.
Connect display & PC to hub or connect display to PC with LAN cable directly.
2.
Set display IP address. (See "Connecting the display to a local area network" on page 21)
3.
Commands are sent via TCP connection to port 4660. The commands are the same as for the
RS232 port (see PS-Series RS232 manual on www.planar.com).
4.
You can test commands using any TCP utility program that allows you to enter binary data in
hexadecimal format. (Note: Contact Planar Technical Support for recommended programs.)
