the computer, and then connecting the RS-232C cable to the computer control cable.
(RS-232C does not function when connected to PC CONTROL 2. See page 15 for connection.)

Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and return code. After
the unit processes the command from the computer, it sends a response code to the computer.

When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the OK response code for the
previous command from the unit is verified.
Note:
• Using the computer control function of the unit, the liquid crystal projector conditions cannot be read to the computer. There-
fore, confirm the conditions by transmitting the display commands for each adjustment menu and checking the conditions
with the On-Screen Display. If the unit receives a command other than a menu display command, it will execute the command
without displaying the On-Screen Display.
Note:
• If a dash appears in the parameter
column, enter a space. If an asterisk
appears, enter a value in the range
indicated in brackets under CON-
TROL CONTENTS. See the example
on the next page.
