4.6.1 Controlling the projector
Projector address
Address installed in the pro jector to be individually co ntrolled.
Common address
Default address. Projector will always execute the command comming from a RCU programmed with that c omm on

Why a projector address ?
As more than one projector can be installed in a room, the seperate projector should be seperately addressable wiht an RCU or
computer. There for each projector has its own address.
Set up an individual Projector Address.
The set up of a projector add ress can be done v ia the software. See ’Change projector address’Change Projector Address, page
79 in chapter ’Service mode’.
Projector controlling.
Every projector requires a n individual address between 0 and 255 which can be set in the Service mode.
When the address is set, the projector c an be controlled now:
• RCU for addresses between 0 and 9.
• computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), A pple MAC, etc. for addresses between 0 and 255.
A projector will respond to a RCU set to the common add ress (’0’ or ’1’) reg ardless of w
hataddressissetin
the projector itself.
The RCU is default programm ed w ith address 0 or 1, ’common address’. With that ’common address’ p ro-
grammed into the RCU, every projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by this RCU. If
it is necessary to control a specific p rojector, t han enter the projector address into the RCU (only when that
address is between 0 and 9 ). The projector with the corresponding ad dress will listen to that specific RCU.
Common Address
Every projector has a common a ddress ’0’ or ’1’. The choice between ’0’ and ’1’ can be selected in the Service mode.
4.6.2 Displaying and Programming addresses
