1.Overview

These specifications describe the methods of controlling the projector from the PC over an RS-232C connection

Virtually all operations possible with the remote control can be controlled from the PC

The following symbols are used in these specifications

Symbol	Description
	Space with or more characters (20h), Tab (09h), or other separator
□	Space with 1 or more characters (20h), Tab (09h), or other separator

Separator between parameters , | □

[ ]	The data in [ ] can be omitted.
|	Same as OR
	The definition name is on the left side of this mark, and the definition description is on the right side.

In the projector, none of the signal lines except for the three lines of SD, RD and SG are used!

If necessary, loop back its own signals at the PC side.

	Control	The projector has two control modes, the local mode and remote mode.
	Mode	Most user commands are used in REMOTE mode.
		The two modes are set by the REMOTE and LOCAL commands.
		REMOTE command
		LOCAL mode	REMOTE mode
		LOCAL command
		Initial mode of projector	Except for RC and MAIN, all user commands are available in this mode.
		The available user commands are limited.	None of the remote control and main unit panel buttons except for
			POWER can be used.
			Control is switched to this mode by the REMOTE command.
	Communication	Communication between the PC and projector is performed by the projector responding bysending a response to the
	system
		command sent from the PC.
		If AC power is supplied to the projector, communication is possible regardless of whether the power is on or off.

	Transmission	At the sending side (PC), the transmission is sent within character intervals of Tc (character interval timeout).
	sent
	Transmission	At the receiving side (Projector), data able to be received within the character interval of Tc is held, and receiving of a
	received	delimiter is considered “transmission received”.
		If a received character interval exceeds Tc or a delimiter is not received within 256 characters, all data already received is
		lost, and the mode is reset to receive standby again.

Command/ One response is always returned for each command sent from the PC.
