1. Introduction

This protocol manual describes the basic configuration and basic operations of various commands used

for projector. Projector can be controlled using the commands provided in “Appendix”. Using an external

CONTROLLER , etc., inputs can be switched and the power can also be turned on and off. In the follow-

ing paragraphs, “CONTROLLER” means an external device such as a PC which controls projector using

these commands.

2. RS-232C (VPL-CX75 and VPL-CX76 are excluded.)

2-1. Communication Specifications

<RS-232C Communication Signal>

. Full duplex communication channels (Flow control not performed.)

. Start-stop synchronism system

. Baud rate: 38.4 kbps (bits per second)

. The bit configuration is defined as follows.

2-4. Connection

<RS-232C Connection>

Communication is enabled by the use of a D-Sub 9 Pin cross (reverse) cable.

The pin assignment of D-Sub 9 Pin and D-Sub 25 Pin is as follows.

D-Sub 9 Pin D-Sub 25 Pin

Name

Grounding for safety protection or cable shield

Transmission data

Shell = FG

TxD

RxD Reception data

RTS Transmission request

CTS Transmission permission

DSR Data set ready

GND for signal

DCD Data channel signal carrier detection

DTR Data terminal ready

Calling display (Presence/absence of calling signal)

Pins indicated as D-Sub 25 Pin are not used.

Assured cable length: 15 m (However, assurance may not be applicable for some cables.)

The software for controlling the projector from a PC is intended for performing transmission and recep-

tion for only the TxD and RxD lines.

Therefore there is no handshake normally performed by RS-232C.

2-5. Communication Procedure

2-5-1. Outline of Communication

All communication between CONTROLLER (PC, etc.) and DEVICE (PROJECTOR) is performed by the

command block format. Communication is started by the issue of a command at CONTROLLER and

ended when the return Data is sent to CONTROLLER after DEVICE receives the command.

CONTROLLER is prohibited from sending several commands at one time. This means that after CON-

TROLLER sends one command, it cannot send other commands until DEVICE returns the return Data.

DEVICE sends the return Data after processing the command. The time from when CONTROLLER

sends the command until the return Data is returned differs according to the contents of the command.

When Sircs Direct Command is sent, return Data may not be returned in some cases.

VPL-CX61/CX63/CX75/CX76/CX80/CX85/CX86/FE40/FE40L/FX40/FX40L/FX51/FX52/FX52L/PX35/PX40/PX41

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

2-6. Communication Rules

. When sending a command from CONTROLLER, the return Data from PROJECTOR should be

received first before sending the next command. Even if the next command is sent before receiving the

return Data, since PROJECTOR will not be able to receive that command, it does not return a response

to CONTROLLER. Consequently, no error code is also sent.

The following lists the approximate waiting times for PROJECTOR to return the return Data after

CONTROLLER sends the command.

. When a communication error occurs, PROJECTOR ignores the Data received until now, and set into

the reception standby state.

. For undefined commands or commends determined as invalid by PROJECTOR, PROJECTOR will

send the “NAK” return Data to CONTROLLER .

. Take note that when Data is written when the input signal of PROJECTOR is unstable, that Data

(value) will not be incorporated.

. When INDEX specified SIRCS direct command is transmitted, leave an interval of 45 msec until the

next transmission. (Do not return the return Data (ACK, NAK) when the SIRCS direct command is

received.)

2-7. Approximate Return Waiting Times

The await-return time differs according to the model.

Refer to Appendix B.

NETWORK

3-1. Introduction

This section describes the specifications, performance and operations of the network service that is going

to be installed in the target projector.

3-1-1. Advertisement

The advertisement service is provided to facilitate development of a PC application that can automatically

detect a projector on the network. This function is achieved by broadcasting the equipment information

periodically to the network.

3-1-1-1. Function

The equipment information shown below is transmitted as the broadcast packet periodically (at certain

intervals).

3-1-2. Remote Control

The remote control service is provided that can control the target equipment from remote location via

network. The SDCP protocol that serves to acquire the basic information such as equipment name and

serial numbers is installed in this projector.

3-1-2-1. Function

This responds to the control command and requests for acquiring the status and information supplied

from clients.

Control request

Enables the input to be selected and picture control to be adjusted.

SIRCS request

Enables remote control by sending the SIRCS code.

Status request

Enables equipment status information such as power status, error information and power-on time to be

acquired.
