1. Introduction This projector is controllable by a personal computer with RS-232C terminal. PC-controllable functions: • • • • Turning the power ON or OFF Changing input signals Inputting commands by pressing the buttons on the control panel and remote control Menu setting [Compatibility with the former models] To use the RS-232C commands designed for the former models of Mitsubishi projector, by inputting “00COMMAND0”, the projector responds in the same way as the former models. (No NAK is returned.

2. Control command configuration The command consists of the address code, function code, data code, ACK/NAK, and end code. The length of the command varies among the functions. ASCII code Character Address code ‘30h’ ‘30h’ 00 Function code Function Function Data code Data Data ACK/NAK ‘3Ah’ ‘4Eh’ :N End code ‘0Dh’ [Address code] Fixed to 00. (‘30h’ ‘30h’ in the ASCII code) [Function code] Code unique to each control operation.

• NAK return In the following cases, the projector returns the command with “:N” added. (1) Though the command sent from the computer is received by the projector successfully, it cannot be executed because the projector is in the operation prohibition state. (2) The data length of the sent command is incorrect or the command is invalid. (3) The signal length of the command is 48 bytes or longer. • When a command is sent out during the following operations, it may not be executed.

[RS-232C control flowchart] START Sending out command No NAK returned No response for 3 seconds or longer Awaiting response from projector NAK returned Command is sent successfully. Command is executed successfully. Checking execution of command (sending out check command) Command is sent successfully. Command execution fails. Check the following. • Check that the function code is correct. • Check that the data code is correct. • Check that the projector is able to issue the return command.

4. Execution procedure of RS-232C commands via LAN • When you use the LAN function, set the STANDBY MODE to STANDARD or LAN. • When you execute RS-232C commands via LAN, check that the CONTROL SYSTEM in the NETWORK menu is set to STANDARD. • You can change the certification password using the NETWORK PASSWORD in the NETWORK menu. The default password is “admin.” • You can skip the certification process by setting the NETWORK CERTIFICATION in the NETWORK menu to OFF.

5. Command list 5.1 General control commands The general control commands are used for the basic operation setting of this projector. They may not be executed while the signals are changed. The general control commands have no data codes. (When the commands for input select are sent while the splash screen is being displayed, the splash screen is only canceled.
PAGE 8
5.2.3 Read commands for other information Use the following commands to obtain other information.
PAGE 9
5.3 Remote control key commands (Not executable in stand-by mode. When the remote control key commands are sent while the splash screen is being displayed, the splash screen is only canceled.) The remote control key commands allow the computer to control the projector in the same way as by the remote control. (Some operations cannot be controlled.) The remote control key commands have no data codes.
PAGE 10
5.4 Direct commands (Not executable in stand-by mode. Possible only to read during BLANK.) The direct commands are used to numerically adjust the geometrical correction and volume. When the computer sends the command without adding the setting value, the projector returns the received command with the current setting value added as a data code.
PAGE 11
5.6 Menu setting commands (Not executable in stand-by mode except some commands. Possible only to read during BLANK except some commands.) The menu setting commands are used for the menu setting of this projector. If the personal computer sends the command without attaching the data code, the projector attaches to the received command its current setting value as the data code and send it back to the PC. 5.6.

5.7 Password lock commands The password lock commands control the password lock. The password lock enabling or disabling command is sent with a 4 to 8-digit password comprised of any figures 1 to 4 added to the end of the data code. When the password lock is enabled or disabled successfully, the projector sends a return command comprising the data code, password, and “1” at the end. When enabling or disabling the password lock fails, it sends a return command with “0” at the end.
