    6.1 
    RS-232 Connection 
    and Port Configuration
    To interface the DHD Controller with a home theater automation/control system or a PC 
    running terminal emulation software, connect it to your control system or PC as shown in 
    Figure 3-13. 
    Configure the RS-232 controller or PC serial port as follows: no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop 
    bit and no flow control. Set the baud rate to 19200, to match that of the DHD Controller 
    RS-232 port. 
    6.2 
    Serial Command 
    Syntax
    Serial commands to the DHD Controller take the following form:
     Commands are not case-sensitive. 
     For a single command that takes no parameters, type the command followed by a 
    carriage return; for example, to set the aspect ratio to Letterbox, type 
    LETTERBOX
     . 
     For a single command that takes a parameter, type the command, a space or a 
    comma and the desired value followed by a carriage return; for example, to set the 
    brightness to -10, type BRIGHTNESS
     -10  or 
    BRIGHTNESS,-10
     . 
     You can also send a string of multiple commands on a single line, separated by 
    commas. For example, COMPOSITE,BRIGHTNESS
     100,ANAMORPHIC  
    switches to the Composite video input, sets the brightness to 100 and sets the aspect 
    ratio to Anamorphic. Command strings can be up to 255 characters long. 
     
    Table 6-1 lists the RS-232 command set. The “Parameter (min/max)” column shows the 
    valid parameter ranges, or “NA” for commands that take no parameters. 
    When you enter a valid command, the DHD Controller executes it and acknowledges it 
    with a plus sign on the command line (+ >). When you enter an invalid command -- one 
    that is misspelled or followed by values outside the valid range for that command -- the 
    DHD Controller ignores it and returns a minus sign (- >). 
     
    6. Serial Communications
    Avoid combining the ON or POWER 1 commands with other commands 
    on a single line. After sending ON or POWER 1, allow at least 15 
    seconds for the DHD
     Controller to power up. Once it does, it will accept 
    and properly execute multiple serial commands.

    The following serial commands are meant to emulate buttons on the remote control or DHD Con-
    troller front panel. Each button has its own serial command, so effectively it is as if you were using 
    the IR remote only you’ll be doing so via serial commands. These commands provide active OSD 
    responses just like the IR remote.

    Brightness and Contrast 
    (variable, depending on 
    RVR calibration):Cinema Standards Measurement System (CSMS) 
    Specifications
    - Brightness: 17.2 to 29.7 foot-Lamberts (fL)
    - Contrast Ratio: 232:1 to 255:1
    These measurements are taken from the projector in a controlled, 
    home theater environment. All measurements are made to 
    ANSI/NAPM IT7.228-1997 specifications using the Photo Research 
    PR-650 SpectraColorimeter and Minolta LS-100 Luminance Meter, 
    Video Essentials test DVD and a 1.3 gain, 72-inch wide screen. The 
    projector is calibrated to a color temperature of 6,500K and has a 
    minimum of 150 hours of usage.
    The foot-Lambert (fL) is the unit of measurement used in commercial 
    movie theaters to express image brightness at the screen surface. The 
    Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) specifies 
    16 fL as the target image brightness for film-based projectors using an 
    open gate (without film in the projector). More importantly, today 
    SMPTE specifies 12 fL as the target image brightness in Digital 
    Cinema theaters. The foot-Lambert measurement is dependent on 
    screen size, screen gain and projector light output.
    Home Theater Calibration Specifications
    - Light Output: 462 to 796 ANSI Lumens
    - Contrast Ratio: 232:1 to 255:1
    These specifications are obtained by calibrating the projector as 
    described above for CSMS measurements. 
    Industry-Standard Specifications
    - Light Output: 1700 ANSI Lumens 
    - Contrast Ratio: 4400:1 to 5000:1
    These are typical projector brightness and contrast specifications 
    found in most companies’ sales literature. Runco includes these 
    measurements in its literature to allow for direct comparison with other 
    manufacturers’ projectors. These measurements are typically taken at 
    9,000K to 13,000K to get expected performance data when the 
    projector is used in professional, commercial and industrial displays.
    Power Requirements: 100 to 240 VAC (auto-sensing), 50/60 Hz, 380 Watts
