1. Introduction This document describes the communication and data formats used to control SIM2 C3X LINK projector via RS-232C port. 2. Connection Switch off the Personal Computer the Projector before connecting RS 232C cable. Use a standard serial cable with 9 pin female to the Personal Computer and 9 pin male to the Projector: pin 2 connects to pin2, pin 3 to pin 3 and pin 5 to pin 5.
3. Communication Protocol The communication protocol is packet oriented. Packets consists of Header and Payload. There are two types of packets: Event and Operation. The packet header size is fixed (7 bytes), while the packet payload type and content varies based on the type of packet: Event payload size is 6 bytes, while Operation payload size is 25 bytes.
4. Commands Remote Control Key Codes The following commands send simulated Remote Control input to SIM2 C3X LINK projector. Remote Control Keycodes: STAND BY CURSOR UP CURSOR LEFT CURSOR RIGHT CURSOR DOWN MENU LEFT MENU RIGHT FREEZE MEMORY INFO AUTO ASPECT NORMAL ASPECT ANAMORPHIC ASPECT LETTERBOX...
ASPECT USER 1 ASPECT USER 2 ASPECT USER 3 Direct access codes Zoom Focus Goto Brightness Goto Contrast Goto Color Goto Tint When the unit is in Standby state, this command switches on the unit and the last source memorised prior to switch off is automatically selected.
Operation Codes The following codes provide direct access to SIM2 C3X LINK User Interface operations not accessible via a single Remote Control command. Operation Codes: Operation Action INCREMENT BRIGHTNESS DECREMENT INCREMENT CONTRAST DECREMENT INCREMENT COLOR DECREMENT INCREMENT TINT DECREMENT INCREMENT SHARPNESS (Video) DECREMENT INCREMENT...

Get Codes Get Commands may be used to get the current value of projector parameters. The response to a correct Get Command consists of 33 byte packet, where Byte Number 11 contains the Validation Code (01) and bytes Number 17 and Number 18 the requested value (the least-significant byte of the value being sent first).

Returned value is indeterminate when the unit is in No Signal state. Returned value may be different from the value displayed on the OSD, as in the latter, the values have been normalized to the 0-100 range. Returned value is valid only when Video, S-Video, RGBS 15 kHz, YPrPb 15 kHz or YPrPb 32 kHz signals are displayed.
5. Examples 1. Send the simulated "SWITCH ON FROM STAND-BY" Remote Control keycode. Remote Control allows Switching on from Stand-by via the key "0". Send the code relative to key "0": BEEF020600A7F79E0100000000. The projector switches on and the last source memorised prior to switch off is automatically selected. The projector returns the response code: 06 (Acknowledged with no error).
