The control interface also varies depending on the
projector. For correct connection, refer to the Interface
column in Chart 1.

SECTION C: Input Video Signal Format and
Projector Power Setting
Use the supplied SRP-X500P Manager software to set the
video signal format connected to AV/RGB INPUT A to E. In
addition, set the projector or flat panel display power
on/standby control as required. It can be linked or not
linked to the power status of the SRP-X500P. These settings
are activated on the PARALLEL/PROJECTOR CONTROL tab.
Video format setting
Click the SIGNAL DEFINE selection radio button to select
the format of the video signal which is input to each
AV/RGB INPUT A to E connector. When switching the AV
source from the AV/RGB SELECT button on the SRP-X500P,
the mixer sends a control command to switch the input
signal format on the projector or display. This command
depends on the SIGNAL DEFINE settings.

If the video format of the AV component is not supported
by the AV/RGB INPUT of the SRP-X500P (for example,
S-VIDEO), select OTHER TERMINAL. This enables signals
directly connected to the projector or flat panel display to
be set as selectable from the front panel AV selector
buttons of the SRP-X500P.
Power setting
Projector power control can be set using the PROJECTOR
POWER setting.
• SYNC WITH POWER ON
Projector or flat panel display power on is interlocked
with the power switch operation of the SRP-X500P.
• SYNC WITH POWER OFF
Projector or flat panel display power standby is
interlocked with the power switch operation of the
SRP-X500P.
SECTION D: Projector Control Using the
Protocol Setting Function
The SRP-X500P controls input signal selection and power
on/standby of the projector by sending the control
command to the projector's RS-232C terminal.
The following are the minimum projector requirements:
• RS-232C terminal
• RS-232C communication protocol
• RS-232C specifications:
• Baud rate: 9600bps, 19200 bps, or 38400 bps
• Parity bit: None, Even, or Odd
• Data length: 8-bit
• Stop bit: 1-bit
• Flow control: None
Know-how of projector control
Generally, a projector cannot receive a command via the
RS-232C terminal during warm-up/cool-down of the lamp
or while detecting the sync signal of input video. The user
must wait to complete each process in sequence: power
on, select the input connector, and projection.
