PLV-Z700 Basic Serial Command Functional Specifications
1. Overview
1.1
These specifications define projector control commands for PLV-Z700.
1.2 The projector control commands are used to control a projector through RS-232C from a computer.
2. Serial Interface Specification
Items Specification
Synchronous system Asynchronous
Transmission Speed 9600 / 19200
Data Length 8 bit
Parity N/A
Stop Bit 1
Flow Control N/A
1) Transmission speed: initial setting value is 19200.
2) Transmission speed can be changed in service mode.
3. Connection
Dedicated serial cable must be used for a connection to a computer and a projector.

4. Notes for Communication
I. The projector command is defined as one command/one line that starts with “C” and ends with
carriage return (0x0D).
II. When the projector receives carriage return, it starts decoding.
III. There are two types of commands: Functional Execution Commands and Status Read Commands.
1. Example of Functional Execution Command: “C05” [CR]
2. Example of Status Read Command: “CR0” [CR]
IV. It clears the information of buffer as below.
V. The projector receives LF (0x0A) or EOF (0x1A).
VI. When it takes more than one second to receive one command.
(Until the projector returns carriage return since it has received the first data.)
VII. When control command pipelining, wait the interval of time after the response as below.
VIII. [VOLUME +/-] Commands 100ms
IX. Other Commands 500ms
X. When Status Read command pipelining, wait at least 500ms after the response.
XI. Do not issue any command before receiving the response except there is no response for 5 seconds.
XII. It takes about 7 seconds for the internal initialization after plugging in AC. During this time, it cannot
process commands. Do not issue any command.
XIII. For 7 seconds after Power ON from Standby, the projector receives a command and returns the
response but does not execute it because of the internal initialization or Lamp processing. However,
Status Read Commands are carried out after 500 ms when receiving the response to Power ON
command.
XIV. About Count Down and the performance during Cooling Down:
1. When receiving a command during Count Down after Power ON or Cooling Down
after Power OFF, the projector returns the response but does not carry it out.
However, Status Read Commands are carried out.
XV. The performance for switching Input:
1. It takes 5 seconds to switch Input after receiving the command. When receiving the
command during this time, it is not executed. However, Status Read Commands are
carried out after 500ms since it receives the response to switching Input command.
XVI. The number of character of response to Status Read Commands depends on commands. Please
see [8. Status Read Commands].
XVII. Characters for commands must be Capital (A - Z).
