RS-232C Control Specification
Notes:
If [Power Saving Standby is set to enable] / [Power Saving is set ON] (Depend on the
models), the BD Player denies the command from RS-232C. It means the BD Player does
not turn on via RS-232C control. Please set [Power Saving = Normal Standby or Quick
Start Mode] / [Power Saving = Off] for the power on/off control via RS-232C. Please refer to
"Power Saving" setup part in each User manual for the detail.
