Password admin Before you connect the projector to your LAN make sure that the IP address 192.168.1.90 is not already in use. If you need to change it, you have to make sure that the computer you use is on the same subnet. This means that the computer need to have an IP address in the range from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254.
TP cables with a HUB or a switch between them. Now the computer should be on the same subnet as the projector, and you are ready to configure it. This is done by starting up an internet browser, like Internet Explorer, Opera, Firefox or similar.
3 HOW TO USE THE PROJECTORS LAN FUNCTIONALITY Once the projector is setup correctly and connected to the LAN, it’s ready to receive commands. The LAN commands is exactly the same as for RS232 control, although you may have to pass on the commands to the projector with a different application.
Connect the projector and host using a standard serial cable with 9-pin female to the host, and 9-pin male to the projector. Pin 2 connects to pin 2, pin 3 connects to pin 3 and pin 5 connects to pin 5.
CMD window Setting up the COM port, and sending a “poweron” command, where “poweron” is sim- ply a binary-file with the appropriate packet for turning the projector on: This returns, when successful, an acknowledgement as described in chapter 5.2 , and turns the projector on.
SEND AND RECEIVE ASCII COMMANDS Overview The protocol exists in parallel with the already existing 32/33-byte protocol. The protocol has the following definition: <HEADER> [SEPARATOR] ADDRESS 1 byte 1 byte 1-3 bytes Field Description <HEADER> ASCII character ‘:’ Separator ASCII character ‘space’ Address 1-3 bytes address Message body...
Modifier Relative change. Value given will be relative to the existing value Request an acknowledge. This modifier is the only that might be applied together with another modifier. It can be used to read back the result of the command. ? –...

C..1 Auto address mode In auto address mode, the address of the projector is based on its physical position in the chain. The first projector has address 1, the second has address 2 and so on. C.....
Special short messages If there are several projectors in the chain (>10) or high RS232 traffic, it is strongly recom- mended that an alternative shorter message is used. This will reduce the processing load at the first projectors in the chain. In a short message byte number 20 (19 for non-address) to 33 (32 for non-address) is omitted.
