Summary
BenQ W5850 home-cinema projector. RS-232 (DB-9 D-Sub) control plus RS-232-over-LAN (TCP port 8000). Commands are ASCII wrapped in <CR>...<CR>, identical framing on both transports.
Transport
# Both serial (DB-9) and TCP (RS-232-over-LAN) listed - source explicitly documents
# RS-232 cable and "RS232 via LAN" with TCP port 8000. No HDBaseT-over-IP framing
# details beyond physical connection.
protocols:
- serial
- tcp
addressing:
port: 8000 # RS-232 over LAN TCP port, from source "Input 8000 in the TCP port # field"
serial:
baud_rate: 9600 # source lists 9600/14400/19200/38400/57600/115200; 9600 is one of supported rates

Notes
- Command framing quirk: every command is wrapped in
<CR>...<CR>per source ("a command works whether it starts and ends with<CR>"). Implementations should send the literal ASCII carriage return bytes around the mnemonic, not just newline. - RS-232 and TCP transports are behaviorally identical — same command set, same framing, same error echoes (
Illegal format,Unsupported item,Block item). - LAN transport: source explicitly says "Input 8000 in the TCP port # field." HDBaseT path uses the same serial setup (no TCP framing details given beyond the LAN section).
- Standby requirement: "Commands are working if the standby power is 0.5W or a supported baud rate of the projector is set." If LAN control appears dead, check that standby network (
*standbynet=on#) is enabled. - Baud rate must be changed via the projector OSD; the
*baud=*#command itself changes the serial port setting. - Cable note: crossover (null-modem) cable required for direct RS-232 attach to PC D-Sub 9.
- "Support: Yes/No" column in the source command table enumerates features available on the W5850. Commands marked "No" still parse but echo
Unsupported itemon W5850.
