4. Getting Started
Common address
Default address. Projector will always execute the command coming from a RCU programmed with that common
address.
Why a projector address ?
As more than one projector can be installed in a room, the separate projector should be separately addressable with an RCU or
computer. Therefor each projector has its own address.
Set up an individual Projector Address.
The set up of a projector address can be done via the software.
Projector controlling.
Every projector requires an individual address between 0 and 255 which can be set in the Installation menu.
Whentheaddressisset,theprojectorcanbecontrolledby:
• RCU for addresses between 0 and 9.
• computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc. for addresses between 0 and 255.
A projector will respond to a RCU set to the common address ’0’ regardless of what address is set in the projector itself (common
address of projector should also be “0” ).
The RCU is default programmed with address 0 , ’common address’.
If it is necessary to control a specific projector, then enter the projector address into the RCU (only when that
address is between 0 and 9). The projector with the corresponding address will listen to that spe
cific RCU.
Some projectors may operate in domestic environments where other equipments may listen to the common
address “0” , therefore the common address can also be set to “1”.
4.8.2 Displaying and Programming addresses into the RCU
Displaying the Projector Address on the Screen.
1. Press the Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.
The projector’s address will be displayed in a ’Text box’
To continue using the RCU with that specific address, it is necessary to enter the same address with the
digit buttons (address between 0 and 9) within 5 seconds after pushing the address key. For example : if the
Address key displays projector address 003, then press "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU’s address
to match the projector’s address. Do not press 0–0–3 . This will address the remote control to ’0’ and control
all projectors in the room. If the address is not entered within 5 seconds, the RCU returns to its default address
(zero address) and controls then all projectors in the room.
Address 0 (or 1) should always allow communication with the projector since it is a common address.
Displaying the Projector Address in Standby
1. Press the Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.
All the LED’s on top of the projector go out.
The LED3 starts blinking green. The number of blinking s
tands for the number of hundreds. After that LED2 starts blinking for
the number of tens. Finally LED3 starts blinking for the number of units. If the blinking is done, the original status of the LEDs
restored.
