Controlling the Monitor with a PC (RS-232C) You can control this monitor from a PC via RS-232C (COM port) on the PC. You can also connect multiple monitors via a daisy chain by using a PC. By assigning ID numbers to each monitor (see page 13), you can make input mode selection/adjustment or can check the status of a specific monitor. Caution • To control the monitor via RS-232C, set RS-232C/LAN SELECT to RS-232C. • You cannot use RS-232C and LAN control simultaneously.

To set a timeout for the command response, specify 10 seconds or longer. • Provide an interval of 100 ms or more between the command response and the transmission of the next command. VOLM0020 OK O K Return code (0DH, 0AH) A response is returned after a command is executed.
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 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 * If monitors are connected as shown above, you can execute a command like “Set all monitors’ input settings to PC1 DVI-D”.
