2. Turn on the personal computer and then use the mouse function of the remote control. If there is any
problem, check the cable connections and then reboot the computer.
3. Refer to the instruction manual of the remote control for instructions concerning mouse operation.
• Before connecting, read the manual(s) of the equipment being connected.
• Turn off the computer power supplies before connection. Connecting
any cable (other than USB) with the computer power on can cause a
malfunction. Use only the mouse cables provided.
• In the case of laptop computers with a built-in pointing device (such as a
Caution
trackball), the device will sometimes have priority even if a mouse is
connected. In such a case, disable the built-in device and change the BIOS
setting (system setup) so that an external mouse can be selected. Restart the
computer after changing the BIOS setting. Refer to the computer manual
for more information on this setting.
• Some computers may not have the utility program to operate a mouse.
Refer to the computer hardware manual.
1. Use the provided USB cable to connect the computer to the mouse unit. Turn on the computer power before
or after connecting the USB cable.
2. When this mouse is connected to a computer for the first time, a message may appear on the screen con
cerning the installation of USB software. Follow the instructions on the screen and install suitable software
on the computer.
3. The remote control mouse function can now be used. If it does not work, please disconnect then reconnect
the cable.
4. Refer to the remote control instructions on page 11 for more instructions concerning mouse operation.
• Before connecting, read the manual(s) for equipment being connected.
• Use only the designated USB cable to connect.
• Effective with USB only when the mouse is used.
Caution
• Do not use with any device other than a personal computer.
• If using Windows 95, it is necessary to set it so that USB can be used with
version OSR 2.1 or higher. Depending on the kind or version of the host
controller, operation may not be possible in some cases.
• Some computers may not have the utility program to operate a mouse.
Refer to the computer hardware manual.
RS-232C Communication
1.Turn off the projector and computer power supplies and connect with the RS-232C cable.
2.Turn on the computer power supply and, after the computer has started up, turn on the projector
power supply.
Consist of header (6 bytes) + command data (6 bytes).
2 Header
BE + EF + 03 + 06 + 00 + CRC_low + CRC_high
CRC_low: Lower byte of CRC flag for command data (6 bytes).
CRC_high: Upper byte of CRC flag for command data (6 bytes).
1. Send the request code Header + Command data (‘02H’ + ‘00H’ + ‘xxH’ + ‘yyH’ + ‘00H’) from the
computer to the projector.
2. The projector returns the response code ‘1DH’ + data (2 bytes) to the computer.
Changing the projector settings (Set command)
1. Send the setting code Header + Command data (‘01H’ + ‘00H’ + ‘xxH’ + ‘yyH’ + data) from the
computer to the projector.
2. The projector changes the setting based on the above setting code.
3. The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Using the projector default settings (Reset command)
1. The computer sends the default setting code Header + Command data (‘06H’ + ‘00H’ + ‘xxH’ + ‘yyH’ +
‘00H’) to the projector.
2. The projector changes the specified setting based to the default value.
3. The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Increasing the projector setting value (Increment command)
1. The computer sends the command code (‘04H’ + ‘00H’ + ‘xxH’ + ‘yyH’ + ‘00H’ + ‘00H’) to the
projector.
2. The projector increases the setting value on the above setting code.
3. The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
Decreasing the projector setting value (Decrement command)
1. The computer sends the command code (‘05H’ + ‘00H’ + ‘xxH’ + ‘yyH’ + ‘00H’ + ‘00H’) to the
projector.
2. The projector decreases the setting value on the above setting code.
3. The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the computer.
When a command sent by the projector cannot be understood by the computer
When the command sent by the projector cannot be understood, the error command ‘15H’ is returned by the
computer. Sometimes the projector ignores RS-232C commands during other works. If the error command
‘15H’ is returned, please send the same command again.
When data sent by the projector cannot be practiced
When the command sent by the projector cannot be practiced, the error code ‘1cH’ + ‘xxxxH’ is returned.
When the data length is greater than indicated by the data length code, the projector will ignore the excess
data code.
Conversely, when the data length is shorter than indicated by the data length code, an error code will be
returned to the projector.
• Operation cannot be guaranteed when the projector receives an undefined command
or data.
Caution
• Provide an interval of at least 40 ms between the response code and any other code.
• The projector outputs test data when the power supply is switched ON, and when
the lamp is lit. Ignore this data.
