To set a timeout for the command response, specify 10 seconds or longer. When connecting multiple monitors in a daisy chain, set the timeout to at least the product of the monitor’s position from the computer multiplied by 10 seconds. Example) 3rd monitor from computer: 30 seconds or longer.
Controlling the Monitor with a PC (RS-232C) nCommands for ID control The command examples shown on this page assume the following connection and ID number set up. ID number: 1 ID number: 2 ID number: 3 ID number: 4 IDST.......... A monitor receiving this command sets its own ID number in the parameter field. Example: IDST0001 001 ← The ID number of this monitor is set to 1. OK IDLK.........The parameter of this command sets the ID number of the monitor.
Controlling the Monitor with a PC (RS-232C) nRepeater control Setting of the GAMMA user data This system has a function to allow setting of multiple monitors connected in a daisy chain using a single command. This function is called repeater control. You can use Repeater control function without assigning ID numbers. [Example] Set 1 Set 2 Set 3 Set 4 nTo transfer the GAMMA user data Use the user data transfer commands (UGRW, UGGW and UGBW).
