Using Level II
—
This chapter explains how to enter and execute short Level II demonstration and
test programs using either the remote control unit or an external computer. The
computer is attached to the player's RS232C port. The chapter also provides
information about preparing Level II programming for encoding onto a videodisc.
Chapter Four — Level II Commands for LD-V8000
This chapter presents definitions and explanations of all LD-V8000 Level II
commands, both those previously available on the LD-V6000A and the new
commands that take advantage of the special capabilities of the LD-V8000.
Commands are presented by category: Program Load Control, Audio/Video Control,
Display Control, Player Control, Register Control, Input Processing, Program
Execution, Flag Set, Transmit, and Memory Control. Often, examples are included
for educational purposes, usually with comments explaining command usage.
The user will also find Notes referring to details which may be different on future
(or past) players. The information in the Notes is included to aid understanding
but should not be depended upon in designing applications.
Note: Most Level II program applications developed using the LD-V6000A command
set will run on the LD-V8000. However, some new hardware features and
accompanying Level II commands available on the LD-V8000 are not available on the
LD-V6000 or LD-V6000A.
See Appendix A for a chart comparing the Level II commands available on
different Pioneer programmable players: the LD-V8000, the LD-V6000A, the
LD-V6000, the LD-V3000, and the PR7820-3. For a complete alphabetical listing
of the Level II commands available for the LD-V8000, see Appendix B. Also, refer
to the LD-V8000 Level I & III User's Manual/Programmer's Reference Guide,
