Data
The value for a given projector 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 (i.e., before
the data) in a set message, but data in replies follow the "!" (exclamation) symbol without a space.
Other details to remember about data:
•
All values returned by the projector (reply messages) have a fixed length, regardless of the
actual value. For a specific parameter, the length will always be the same (e.g. contrast is
always returned as three characters, projector number is always returned as five characters).
The minimum parameter size is three characters. Values that are less than the pre-defined size
will be padded with leading zeros as needed. Parameters which have negative signs (-) are zero
padded after the negative sign, and will have one less digit to make space for the sign.
•
If entering a negative number, there must be a space between the code/subcode, and the
value. For example, (CRM3) and (CRM 3) can both be used when the number is positive. (CRM
-2) is acceptable, but (CRM-2) is not.
•
Data in set messages to the projector do not require padding with zeros.
•
Within each message, multiple parameters of data must be separated by one "space" character.
•
Text parameters are enclosed in double quotes following the data, as in "Name".
