I. Application
This document defines the communications method for control of the NEC LCD monitor, MultiSync P403/
P463 /P553 /P703 /P801 /X464UN /X554UN /X464UNV /X554UNS when using an external controller.
(4/141)
II. Preparation
2. Connectors and wiring
2.1 RS-232C Remote control
Connector: 9-pin D-Sub
Cable: Cross (reversed) cable or null modem cable
(Please refer “Controlling the LCD monitor via RS-232C Remote control” on User’s manual.)
2.2 LAN control
Connector: RJ-45 10/100 BASE-T
Cable: Category 5 or higher LAN cable
(5/141)
(Please refer “Controlling the LCD monitor via LAN control” on User’s manual.)
(6/141)
III. Communication specification
3. Communication Parameter
3.1 RS-232C Remote control
(1) Communication system Asynchronous
(2) Interface RS-232C
(3) Baud rate 9600bps
(4) Data length 8bits
(5) Parity None
(6) Stop bit 1 bit
(7) Communication code ASCII
3.2 LAN control
(1) Communication system TCP/IP (Internet protocol suite)
(2) Interface Ethernet (CSMA/CD)
(3) Communication layer Transport layer (TCP)
* Using the payload of TCP segment.
(4) IP address (Default) Automatic setup
* If you need to change,
Please refer “Network settings” on User’s manual.
(5) Port No. 7142 (Fixed)
(Note)
The monitor will disconnect the connection if no packet data is received for 15 minutes.
And the controller (PC) has to re-connect to control the monitor again, after 15 minutes or more.
3.3 Communication timing
The controller should wait for a reply packet before next command is sent.
(Note)
A normal answer cannot be performed when a monitor is a busy state.
Please refer “5.5.3 NULL message”.

Monitor Controller
The controller sends command to
get a value from the monitor that
you want to change.
The monitor replies a current value
of the requested item.
The controller sends commands to
set an adjusted value.
The monitor replies to the
controller for confirmation.
The controller sends command to
get a value for confirmation.
The monitor replies an adjusted
value.
The controller requests to store
the adjusted value to the monitor.

Command code
'B' 'E'
To tell the controller that the monitor does not have any answer to give to the host (not
ready or not expected)
Following operation s need 15 seconds for to execute, so the monitor will return this message
when another message is received during execution.
²
Power ON and Power OFF
Following operations need 10 seconds for to execute, so the monitor will return this message
when another message is received during execution.
