Note
 fIf the projector is operated using the remote control or the control panel, or by the control command while controlling the projector using the 
Art-Net function, the setting of the DMX controller or computer application may be dif ferent from the projector status. 
To reflect the controls 
of all channels to the projector, set “ENABLE/DISABLE” of channel 11 to “Disable” and then back to “Enable”.

Attention
 fIf a command is sent after the light source starts lighting, there may be a delay in response or the command may not be executed.  T ry 
sending or receiving any command after 60 seconds.
 f When transmitting multiple commands, be sure to wait until 0.5 seconds has elapsed after receiving the response from the projector before 
sending the next command. When transmitting a command which does not need a parameter , a colon (:) is not necessary

.
Note
 fIf a command cannot be executed, the “ER401” response is sent from the projector to the computer . fIf an invalid parameter is sent, the “ER402” response is sent from the projector to the computer . fID transmission in RS

- 232C supports ZZ (ALL) and 01 to 64, as well as 0A to 0Z groups.
 fIf a command is sent with an ID designated, a response will be sent to the computer only in the following cases. gIt matches the projector ID gID is designated as 

ALL and [RESPONSE(ID ALL)] is set to [ON]
 gID is designated as GROUP

 and [RESPONSE(ID GROUP)] is set to [ON]
 fSTX and ETX are character codes. STX shown in hexadecimal is 02, and ETX shown in hexadecimal is 03.
When multiple projectors are controlled
When multiple projectors are all controlled
When controlling multiple projectors together via RS - 232C, perform the following settings.
1)
 
Set a different ID for each projector
 .
2)
 
Set [RESPONSE(ID 
 ALL)] to [ON] in only one projector.
3)
 
Set [RESPONSE(ID 
 ALL)] to [OFF] for all other projectors set in Step 2).
When multiple projectors are all controlled by group unit
When controlling multiple projectors by group unit via RS
- 232C, perform the following settings.
1)
 
Set a different ID for each projector
 .
2)
 
Set [RESPONSE(ID GROUP)] to [ON] in only one projector
 .
3)
 
Set [RESPONSE(ID GROUP)] to [OFF] for all other projectors set in Step\
 2).
Note
 f There will be no response if two or more projectors have [RESPONSE(ID  ALL)] set to [ON]. fWhen setting multiple groups, set [RESPONSE(ID GROUP)] to [ON] in only one projector in each group.
Response is not made correctly if [RESPONSE(ID GROUP)] is set to [ON] in two or more projectors of the same group.
