J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information13 of 90020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) DETAILED SERIAL COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS (ACE) AUTO COLOR ENABLE CONTROL GROUP: Preference SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION Automatically select Color Enable based on the control being adjusted. If enabled, this control allows the projec- tor to automatically change the color enable control when the user is using the OSD interface to adjust controls such as input levels, odd pixel, and brightness uniformity. This is an unsaved control, which can only be set when powered on, and only affects the operation of the On Screen Menus. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable/Disable auto color controls. EXAMPLES: (ACE 0) - Disable Auto Color (ACE 1) - Enable Auto Color (ACO) ADAPTIVE CONTRAST CONTROL GROUP: Input SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION Adaptive Contrast Enhancement dynamically expands the contrast of the output image producing vibrant images with seamless response to scene changes and fades. The adaptive contrast function implements a dynamic non- linear mapping between the input and output contrast levels based on frame-by-frame luminance histogram mea- surement of the input image. SUBCODE INxy DESCRIPTION OF USE Set the adaptive contrast for slot x, input y. Range 0-15. MAIN Set the adaptive contrast for main video. Range 0-15. PIIP or SECD Set the adaptive contrast for PIP or Secondary video. Range 0-15. EXAMPLE: (ACO 8) - Set adaptive contrast for main image to 50% strength. (ACT) ACTIVE WINDOW CONTROL GROUP: Input SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator (Read Only) DESCRIPTION This control defines the input active window in pixels. The production aperture is available for analog sources only, but not for decoded analog signals. The aperture is set once on every auto setup or on new signal detection when a channel for that signal is not present. The aperture defines the maximum window in which blanking con- trols can be opened up to, relative to the active portion of the signal. This is a read only control. SUBCODE INxy DESCRIPTION OF USE Set the adaptive contrast for slot x, input y. MAIN Set the adaptive contrast for main video. PIIP or SECD Set the adaptive contrast for PIP or Secondary video.
14 of 90J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) (ACT) Active Window con’t EXAMPLES: (ACT?) - Returns the active window for main video. (ACT+PIIP?) - Returns the active window for PIP video. (ACT+IN12?) - Returns the active window for slot 1 input 2. (ADR) ADDRESS CONTROL GROUP: Preference SUBCLASS: Power Down ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION Set/Query Device Address on ASCII Protocol network. Required only for RS232 connections that are daisy chained to allow directed messages. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Valid Address range is 0 to 999. Reserved broadcast address is 65535. EXAMPLES: (65535 ADR 0) - Set all devices to address 0. (0 ADR 5) - Set first device at address 0 to address to 5. (65535 1001ADR?) - Query address for all devices and return results to address 1001. Expected response to previous query (01001 00005ADR!005). (AGC) AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL CONTROL GROUP: Input SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION Enable/disable the Automatic Gain Control. This control allows the decoder to automatically track the sync amplitude of the incoming signal. Turn this control off if you are experiencing strange color artifacts, indicating an incompatibility between the source and the AGC. SUBCODE INxy DESCRIPTION OF USE Set the AGC on slot x, input y to the specified state of either enable or disable. MAIN Set automatic gain control on main image. PIIP or SECD Set automatic gain control on PIP or Secondary image. EXAMPLES: (AGC 1) - Enable AGC on main video. (AGC+MAIN 0) - Disable AGC on main video. (AGC+PIIP 1) - Enable on PIP video. (AGC?) - Returns the current AGC state on main video. (AGC+PIIP ?) - Returns the current AGC state on PIP video. (AGC+IN12 ?) - Returns the current AGC state on slot 1 input 2.
J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information15 of 90020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) (AIC) AUTO INPUT CYCLING CONTROL GROUP: Preference SUBCLASS: Power Down ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION When enabled, the system will continually search for the next valid signal when no signal is present or when loss of sync occurs on the current user selected input. In the case of multiple signals to choose from, the order is based on slot, followed by inputs on that slot. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable or disable auto input cycling. EXAMPLES: (AIC 0) - Disable auto input cycling. (AIC 1) - Enable auto input cycling. (AIL) AUTO INPUT LEVEL CONTROL GROUP: Unsaved SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION If enabled, this control allows the projector to continuously monitor the input signal levels of the analog inputs and make adjustments as needed. Whenever the projector detects a level that would lead to the crushing of black or white levels, it adjusts the input offset or gain to compensate. If the input signal is not being crushed, the pro- jector will do nothing. The Auto Input Level feature should only be used when the current source requires further input level adjustment. There must be at least 12 consecutive white pixels in the image in order to use Auto Input Levels. The monitor period will run for 10 seconds after being issued. Auto setup or source switching will stop the level period. To use this control, turn it on, wait for the blacklevel and drive values to stabilize, and turn it off or wait for the 10 seconds. When Auto Input level is turned off, the current drive and blacklevel values are main- tained. This control only applies to analog BNC or Dual DVI cards. SUBCODE MAIN DESCRIPTION OF USE Perform auto input level on the main image. PIIP or SECD Perform auto input level on PIP or Secondary image. EXAMPLES: (AIL 1) - Perform auto input level on the main image. (AIL+PIIP 1) - Perform auto input level on the PIP image. (ALT) ACTIVE LOOP-THROUGH CONTROL GROUP: Preference SUBCLASS: Power Down ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION In situations where a Twin HDMI Input card is being used to loop signals out to another projector, this feature ensures that video signals continue to be looped out when the projector enters Standby power mode. Note that when the projector is in Standby mode (and this feature is enabled), limited channel control is available - inputs can be switched, can perform Auto Setup and some limited input settings can be modified. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable or disable active loop-through.
16 of 90J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) (ALT) Active Loop-Through con’t EXAMPLES: (ALT 1) - Enable Standby active loop-through. (ALT 0) - Disable Standby active loop-through. (ALT?) - Get the current Standby active loop-through setting. (APR) APERTURE CONTROL GROUP: Preference SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION The Optical Aperture control sets the diameter of the light path. It is used to trade off between contrast and bright- ness. Larger values increase contrast and decrease brightness. This is done in the optical path rather than electron- ically which is how the Contrast and Brightness controls function. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Set aperture open/close. EXAMPLES: (APR 0) - Set aperture to full open. (APR 17) - Set aperture to full close. (APJ) ACTIVE PROJECTOR CONTROL GROUP: Unsaved SUBCLASS: Power Down ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION Temporarily enable or disable the IR and wired keypad inputs to a specific projector in a network of projectors. When a projector is disabled, the only key that works is PROJ. The next time the projector is powered up again, it will revert to fully enabled. The built-in keypad will always be fully functional. This control does not overwrite the Front IR, Back IR and Wired Keypad settings. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable or disable IR remote control access to the projector. EXAMPLES: (APJ 1) - Projector is active (IR remote control access is enabled). (APJ 0) - Projector is not active (IR remote control access is temporarily disabled). (APJ?) - Is the IR remote control access is active or not. (APW) AUTO POWER UP CONTROL GROUP: Preference SUBCLASS: Power Down ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION When the A/C switch is turned on, the projector will automatically change from Stand-by Mode to Power On Mode, if there has been an AC interruption in the previous power cycle. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable or disable auto power up.
J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information17 of 90020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) (APW) Auto Power Up con’t EXAMPLES: (APW 0) - Projector will remain in Standby Mode until the user presses the power key. (APW 1) - Projector will auto power up when A/C power is switched on if it was in a powered on state (i.e. not in standby mode) when the A/C power was powered off in the previous power cycle. (ARO) ASPECT RATIO OVERLAY CONTROL GROUP: Unsaved SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION Enables or disables Aspect Ratio layer over Image layer. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable or disable aspect ratio overlay. EXAMPLES: (ARO 1) - Turn on Aspect Ratio Overlay. (ARO 0) - Turn off Aspect Ratio Overlay. (ASH) AUTO SHUTDOWN CONTROL GROUP: Saved SUBCLASS: Power Down ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION When Auto Shutdown Mode has been selected, and no projector activity has been seen for the activation time-out period, the projector will enter a power saving mode in which the lamps will dim and the shutter close. If this con- dition persists for an additional time-out period the projector will automatically go to standby. The presence of any activity within this is combined interval will cancel Auto Shutdown and return the projector to normal opera- tion. SUBCODE DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable or disable Auto Shutdown Operation. SBTO Set the uninterrupted time-out period that must elapse before pro- jector will enter Standby Mode (The second time-out period or Standby time-out). ALTO Set the uninterrupted time-out period that must elapse time of activity loss until Auto Shutdown is activated (The first time-out period or Activation time-out). EXAMPLES: (ASH 1) - Turn on Auto Shutdown Mode. (ASH 0) - Turn off Auto Shutdown Mode. (ASH+SBTO 10) - Set standby time-out to 10 minutes. (ASH+ALTO 10) - Set source activity loss time-out to 10 minutes.
18 of 90J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) (ASR) AUTO CHANNEL SELECT CONTROL GROUP: Channel SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION The Auto Channel Select option allows the projector to select the channel memory best suited to the input signal. If the current channel does not allow Auto Channel Select, the projector will not attempt to select a new channel when the signal changes. If the current channel does allow Auto Channel Select, then upon signal detection, an existing channel will be chosen. If a match is not found a new channel will be created. SUBCODE C0xx DESCRIPTION OF USE Enable/disable Auto Channel Select on channel (xx=channel num- ber from 01 to 99). MAIN Enable/disable Auto Channel Select on the channel being used by main. PIIP or SECD Enable/disable Auto Channel Select on the channel being used by PIP or Secondary. EXAMPLES: (ASR?) - Get Auto Channel Select state for channel being used by main. (ASR+MAIN?) - Get Auto Channel Select state for channel being used by main. (ASR+PIIP?) - Get Auto Channel Select state for channel being used by PIP. (ASR 1) - Enable Auto Channel Select for the channel being used by main. (ASR+PIIP 1) - Enable Auto Channel Select for the channel being used by PIP. (ASR+MAIN 0) - Disable Auto Channel Select for the channel being used by main. (ASR+C001 0) - Disable Auto Channel Select for channel 1. (ASU) AUTO SETUP CONTROL GROUP: Unsaved SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION This control tells the projector to automatically adjust as many parameters as it can to produce the optimal setup for the current input. NOTE: If main and PIP/Secondary video are using the same channel, the auto setup will act on both, regardless of the sub-code being used. In some cases for analog video, the user can select the format that best suits their source. This selection helps the auto setup get the correct settings for the tracking and phase controls for analog sources that contain the same number of active lines, but have a different aspect ratios. - All digital and decoder option cards do not allow options for auto setup since digital hardware provides enough information to perform the correct auto setup. - Analog PC graphics sources (4/5-wire sync) present a list of formats based on the current active lines detected in the video. - Analog Video Sources (3 wire sync on green) always have the options ‘standard’ and ‘advanced’. Video sources use a look up table to determine their format based on video standards. The ‘advanced’ auto setup selection mea- sures the start pixel and start line whereas ‘standard’ uses the table values as is. SUBCODE MAIN DESCRIPTION OF USE Perform a standard auto setup on the main video.
J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information19 of 90020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) (ASU) Auto Setup con’t PIIP or SECD Perform a standard auto setup on the picture in picture or Second- ary video. FRZE Hides temporary image artifacts that may appear during the auto setup procedure. EXAMPLES: (ASU) - Perform standard auto setup on main video. (ASU+FRZE 1) - Freeze image during auto setup. (ASU+FRZE 0) - Disable image freezing during auto setup. (ASU+MAIN) - Perform standard auto setup on main video. (ASU+PIIP) - Perform standard auto setup on PIP. (BBL) BOTTOM BLANKING CONTROL GROUP: Input SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION Set the number of lines to blank (turn to black) at the bottom of the image. This can be used to blank out any unwanted data near the bottom edge of the image. A positive amount of blanking makes the image smaller. A negative amount of blanking makes the image larger. Negative blanking is only applicable to analog signals, when the autosetup has not been able to set the image size correctly. It is preferable not to use negative blanking, but to run autosetup again, ensuring that the content has active pixels on each edge of the image. The maximum amount of bottom blanking allowed is half the image height minus 10. For negative blanking, the image size can only be increased to the limit of the sync. SUBCODE INxy DESCRIPTION OF USE Set the bottom blanking for slot x, input y. MAIN Set the bottom blanking for the main image. PIIP or SECD Set the bottom blanking for the PIP or Secondary image. EXAMPLES: (BBL 40) - Set bottom blanking to 40 on main video. (BBL+MAIN 40) - Set bottom blanking to 40 on main video. (BBL+PIIP 40) - Set bottom blanking to 40 on PIP video. (BBL+IN32 40) - Set bottom blanking to 40 on slot 3 input 2. (BBL?) - Returns the bottom blanking value on main video. (BBL+PIIP?) - Returns the bottom blanking value on PIP video. (BBL+IN12?) - Returns the bottom blanking value on slot 1 input 2.
20 of 90J Series Serial Commands Technical Reference Information020-100796-01 Rev. 1 (10-2011) (BDR) BAUD RATE CONTROL GROUP: Preference SUBCLASS: Power Down ACCESS LEVEL: Advanced DESCRIPTION Set the baud rate for a serial communications port. For RS232 IN and RS232 OUT, the default is 115200. For RS422, the default is 19200. The default communications settings for all ports is 8 data bits, no parity. Valid baud rates, with the values to select them, are: 0 = 1200 1 = 2400 2 = 9600 3 = 19200 4 = 38400 5 = 57600 6 = 115200 SUBCODE PRTA DESCRIPTION OF USE Set the baud rate on port A (RS232 IN). PRTB Set the baud rate on port B (RS232 OUT). PRTC Set the baud rate on port C (RS422). EXAMPLES: (BDR+PRTA 6) - Set baud rate on port A to 115200 bits per second. (BDR+PRTA?) - Get baud rate (BRD+PRTA!115200). (BGC) BASE GAMMA CURVE CONTROL GROUP: Input SUBCLASS: Power Up ACCESS LEVEL: Operator DESCRIPTION This control lets you select the gamma table. You can select from one of the standard tables, or select an arbitrary gamma table that has been downloaded into the projector. A separate PC utility is needed to do this. The 2.22 table is a simple power curve. The standard table is a modified 2.22 curve with an optimized linear portion in the low end of the curve. This is the same as selecting a custom table and setting the function to be 2.22 and the slope to be 1.0. Selecting Gamma Function from the drop down list enables the Gamma Function and Gamma Slope controls. Valid values are: 0 = Standard 1 = 2.22 2 = Gamma Function SUBCODE INxy DESCRIPTION OF USE Set the base gamma curve for slot x, input y. MAIN Set the base gamma curve for main video. PIIP or SECD Set the base gamma curve for PIP or Secondary video. EXAMPLES: (BGC 0) - Set main video to the standard base gamma table. (BGC+MAIN 0) - Set main video to the standard base gamma table. (BGC+IN32 0) - Set slot 3 input 2 to the standard base gamma table.
