Remote communications commands
Commands are used to simulate menu operations and determine the settings of the projector, and use the following format:
• All commands consist of ASCII text strings starting with an asterisk and ending with an ASCII Carriage Return character
 (code 13): 
*command operator <value>
• The <command> string determines which setting the command will affect.
• Spaces are required before the operator and before the value.
• The <operator> string can take one of the following formats:
Operator type <operator> Description
Set
= <value>
Makes the setting take the <value>.
Get
?
Asks what the current value is. 
The value is returned as an ASCII text string.
Execute Performs an action. No operator is entered for this type of command.
Examples
*aspect.ratio = 4
  sets the aspect ratio to TheaterScope
*aspect.ratio ?
  asks what is the current aspect ratio
*lens.stop
    commands the projector to stop any lens movement that is currently in progress
*aspect.ratio=4
  is an invalid instruction because of the missing spaces before the operator and the value
Notes
  To set the default value of a 
command, simply enter the 
command name and 
, without an 
operator. For example 
*aspect.
ratio
 will set the aspect ratio to 
0 (Source).
  The projector response begins with 
“ACK” , to show your input has been 
acknowledged.
  For example, if you send
  *aspect.ratio = 1,
  the projector will return 
ACK aspect.ratio = 1 
and will change the aspect ratio 
accordingly.
  If your command has not been 
acknowledged, due to a syntax error 
or another problem, the projector 
response will be 
NAK.
