  • Page 6 Griffyn 4K32-RGB • Mirage 4K32-RGB Product documentation For installation, setup, and user information, see the product documentation available on the Christie website. Read all instructions before using or servicing this product. 1. Access the documentation from the Christie website: •...
  • Page 7 Once you have connected your computer to either the RS232 IN port (depending on which standard is supported by your computer) or to the Ethernet port on Christie TruLife+, you can remotely access controls and image setups, issue commands or queries, and receive replies.
  • Page 8 Ethernet is setup to obtain an IP address automatically if a DHCP server is on the network, modify IP settings, or manually enter an address. Christie recommends using the Ethernet port on the Video Input panel as the HDBaseT port is limited to 100 Mb/s.
  • Page 9 This function code appears immediately after the leading bracket that starts the message. In messages sent to Christie TruLife+ that do not have a subcode, a space between the function code and the first parameter (or special character) is optional.
  • Page 10 (PWR!000). Data The value for a given Christie TruLife+ state, such as on or off, appears in ASCII- decimal format directly after the request/reply symbol. You can add an optional space after the symbol—such as before the data—in a set message, but data in replies follow the exclamation mark (!) symbol without a space.
  • Page 11 Options Function Example Query a list QUERY test pattern options (ITP?L) REPLY test pattern options (ITP!L001 001 00000 "Off") Christie TruLife+ Technical Reference–Serial Commands 020-103316-01 Rev. 1 (09-2020) Copyright © 2020 Christie Digital Systems USA, Inc. All rights reserved.
  • Page 12 The acknowledgment is returned after the message has been received and fully executed by Christie TruLife+ (such as in the case of a source switch it is not sent until the switch is complete). If the message cannot be executed for some reason (such as invalid parameters, time-out, and so on) a NAK is returned instead (not-acknowledge).
  • Page 13 = F0h when only the low byte is used = 240 Christie TruLife+ collects all of the message bytes as defined in the first byte of the message, then creates its own checksum value for comparison with the checksum included in the controller’s message.
  • Page 14 Normally messages can be sent to the projector before processing of earlier messages is complete— Christie TruLife+ stores messages in a buffer until ready to process. However, if a series of messages is sent, Christie TruLife+ may not be able to process them as fast as they arrive and the buffer becomes full.
  • Page 15 Serial API commands The Christie TruLife+ commands can be used to modify product settings. ADR–Projector Address Sets or queries the device address. This command also helps to identify where a response or asynchronous message originates from. Generally, this command is used for projectors that are daisy-chained together using the RS232 style communication.
