The last three commands show what happens when a control is unavailable.  In this case, 
the source was set to “HDMI

RS-232 Error CodesIf an errcode ? command returns one of the following values, you have encountered a 
likely system error requiring the attention of a qualified service technician. Try resetting the 
projector by powering it off, allowing it to cool and powering it on again. Refer to 
Table 6-3 
and contact your dealer if the problem persists. 
The specific code number identifies the source of the error detected, and is particularly 
useful in cases where the projector is far away. For example, the code “21” means that 
Fan
 1 has failed.

Using Discrete IR 
Codes
The X-200i accepts commands in the form of IR signals that conform to the NEC protocol. 
Each X-200i remote control button has an NEC control code associated with it. 
As shown in Table 6-1, there are two complete sets of remote codes (designated “Set 1” 
and “Set 2”).  Through the on-screen menu, the projector can be configured to use either 
set.  The reason for two sets is to allow control of more than one product in the same 
room without interference. The remote control can also be configured to use either code 
set (refer to 
Infrared Remote on page 71).
You can use these codes to program a third-party, “universal” remote control unit to work 
with the X-200i. These third-party products usually come with a computer software 
application for this purpose. For more information, consult the documentation provided 
with the remote control unit. 
IR Command ProtocolThe IR control codes have the following characteristics:
 Each code consists of the following:
leader pulse (a modulated pulse of 9 ms followed by a non-modulated pulse of 
4.5 ms);
address bits - 0x06 0xF9 (binary 00000110 11111001); 
data bits: eight (8) bits for the command followed by the logical inverse of the 
command; and
end pulse (a modulated pulse of 0.56 ms, similar to the modulated pulse in the 
‘0’ and ‘1’ bits).The end of the modulated pulse constitutes the end of the data 
transmission. 
 The carrier frequency is 38 kHz, with the modulated pulses having a 33% duty cycle. 
 Commands are sent at a maximum rate of 9 Hz.
For example, here is the NEC control code for the ON () button on the X-200i remote 
control unit (using Code Set 1):  
Figure 6-1 shows the pulse train for this command.

Using HDMI CEC 
Messages
The X-200i accepts and can respond to CEC command messages from a disc player, 
satellite receiver or DVR/set-top box via an HDMI connection. Using CEC, the X-200i can 
perform the following actions:
 Turn itself on and select the correct input when the source component initiates 
playback of a disc or recorded program. 
 Turn the source component on when you switch to its corresponding input on the 
X-200i. 
 Turn the source component off when the X-200i is turned off (unless the source 
component is in playback mode). 
 Change its OSD language when a similar change is made at the source. 
To use CEC, connect your CEC-compatible sources to the HDMI inputs on the X-200i. 
Set the 
HDMI CEC option to On (refer to HDMI CEC on page 71). Additional steps may 
be needed to enable CEC at the source. Refer to the documentation for your source 
device for more information.
