General Info
Tips:
The above is to show the display area (grey) with the text Hello World in Green. The white outline is a representation
of where the 15 x 30 area may be position based on the delay commands. A white border does not appear on the
actual screen.
Unless otherwise noted all valid commands are echoed back if properly received.
When Main TV channel is changed via remote or contact closure, the RS232 is updated by sending a ~MCHxxx<CR>
response
Invalid commands will reply with ~ERROR<CR>.
When controlling the TVP-1000 through the Pioneer Plasma RS232 send a 0Dh to clear the buffer either 100ms after a
Pioneer Plasma specific command is sent or 100ms before you send a TVP-1000 command. Since the Plasma shares
the RS-232 with the TVP-1000 the TVP-1000 is always looking at the strings. Sending a <cr> clears the buffer of the TVP-
1000 to make certain a full and proper string is received. If there is something in the buffer the TVP-1000 will respond with
ERROR<cr> letting you know there was garbage in the buffer. You do not have to clear the buffer if you are sending
multiple TVP-1000 commands since it is assumed they are all valid. The only time this should be an issue is when a
command is sent for the Plasma such as input 3 command or some other command.
