NOTE   • Be sure to check jack type, signal level, timing and resolution 
before connecting this projector to a PC.
• Some PCs may have multiple display screen modes. Use of some of these 
modes will not be possible with this projector.
• Depending on the input signal, full-size display may not be possible in some 
cases. Refer to the number of display pixels above.
• Although the projector can display signals with resolution up to UXGA 
(1600x1200), the signal will be converted to the projector’s panel resolution 
before being displayed. The best display performance will be achieved if the 
resolutions of the input signal and projector panel are identical.
• Automatically adjustment may not function correctly with some input signals.
• The image may not be displayed correctly when the input sync signal is a 
composite sync or a sync on G.

Command Control via the Network (continued)
Requesting projector status (Get command)
(1) Send the following request code from the PC to the projector.
 Header + Command data (‘02H’ + ‘00H’ + type (2 bytes) + ‘00H’ + ‘00H’)
(2) The projector returns the response code ‘1DH’ + data (2 bytes) to the PC.
Changing the projector settings (Set command)
(1) Send the following setting code from the PC to the projector.
Header + Command data (‘01H’ + ‘00H’ + type (2 bytes) + setting code (2 bytes))
(2) The projector changes the setting based on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code‘06H’to the PC.
Using the projector default settings (Reset Command)
(1) The PC sends the following default setting code to the projector.
 Header + Command data (‘06H’ + ‘00H’ + type (2 bytes) + ‘00H’ + ‘00H’)
DOXH
(3) The projector returns the response code‘06H’ to the PC.
Increasing the projector setting value (Increment command)
(1) The PC sends the following increment code to the projector.
 Header + Command data (‘04H’ + ‘00H’ + type (2 bytes) + ‘00H’ + ‘00H’)
(2) The projector increases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the PC.
Decreasing the projector setting value (Decrement command)
(1) The PC sends the following decrement code to the projector.
 Header + Command data (‘05H’ + ‘00H’ + type (2 bytes) + ‘00H’ + ‘00H’)
(2) The projector decreases the setting value on the above setting code.
(3) The projector returns the response code ‘06H’ to the PC.
When the projector cannot understand the received command
When the projector cannot understand the received command, the error code ‘15H’
is sent back to the PC.
Sometimes the projector cannot properly receive the command. In such a case, 
the command is not executed and the error code ‘15H’is sent back to the PC. If 
this error code is returned, send the same command again.
When the projector cannot execute the received command.
When the projector cannot execute the received command, the error code ‘1CH’ +
‘xxxxH’ is sent back to the PC. 
When the data length is greater than indicated by the data length code, the 
projector ignore the excess data code. Conversely when the data length is shorter 
than indicated by the data length code, an error code will be returned to the PC.

command or data.
• Provide an interval of at least 40ms between the response code and any other code.
• The projector outputs test data when the power supply is switched ON, and when the 
lamp is lit. Ignore this data.
• Commands are not accepted during warm-up.
