ESC/VP21 Command List
When the power ON command is transmitted to the projector, the power turns
on and it enters warm-up mode. When the projector's power has turned on, a
colon ":" (3Ah) is returned.
When a command is input, the projector executes the command and returns a
":", and then accepts the next command.
If the command being processed terminates abnormally, an error message is
output and a ":" is returned.
You can check the available commands in the projector's Specifications.
