RS 232 AND LAN CONTROL
RS 232
You may control and monitor the projector remotely through the serial RS232 control
interface.
Two RS232 protocols are employed. A simple instruction set (SIS) ASCII protocol gives
access to the most frequently used commands. In addition, a binary protocol is available
where each command is a series of 32 bytes in one packet. The protocols allow for both
SET and GET operations. To utilize GET operations the host needs a routine for receiving
and interpreting incoming packets. SET operations are used to force the projector into
different modes, like setting brightness and contrast, switching between sources, etc.
A separate document “RS-232 and LAN communication protocol and command set”
is available that describes the communications parameters and operational codes in
detail.
LAN
The projector can be controlled and monitored through the LAN connector as an
alternative to RS232. LAN control is available either through an embedded web page
for the most frequently used commands or using the same command set as for RS232
for full access to all system controls.
NOTE! THE PROJECTOR IS CONFIGURED WITH A DEFAULT IP ADDRESS. SEE
THE SYSTEM INFORMATION AVAILABLE THROUGH THE MENU SYSTEM OR
REMOTE CONTROL FOR THE ACTUAL IP-ADDRESS.
Detailed descriptions of configuration, use and command set is described in a separate
document “RS-232 and LAN communication protocol and command set”. You may
consider using the LAN interface as a means of theft detection. When the projector
is removed, the LAN will be disconnected; this may be detected over the local area
network and could be used to trigger an alarm.
TIMER
The projector features a real-time clock that enables timing control. This means that
the projector can be programmed to switch on and off at certain pre-set times during
a weekly cycle. To allow for a flexible schedule, 10 ‘programs’ are available. With each
program, you can define the switch on or switch off time for a single day (Monday to
Sunday), all work days (Monday through Friday), or week-end (Saturday and Sunday).
One, several or all programs can be active at the same time as desired. In this way, a
flexible scheme can be established. Observe the 24 hour time format. See the MENU
system, MISC sub menu, CONFIGURE TIMER, for more details on how to define the
programs.
The following example illustrates a case where the projector turns on at 08:00 in the
morning (8 am) and switches off at 20:00 (8 pm) on weekdays (Monday through Friday).
Weekends (Saturdays and Sundays), it turns on at 10:00 (10 am) and off at 18:00 (6
pm). VGA is used as the source. For this, four programs are needed, 2 for on and two
for off.
