Summary

Epson CB EB PowerLite L630U is a laser projector controlled via the ESC/VP21 protocol. ESC/VP21 uses ASCII command codes transmitted over serial (RS-232C), USB, or TCP/IP. This spec covers power, mute, source selection, and query commands.

Traits

- powerable    # PWR ON / PWR OFF commands present
- queryable    # Get command format documented (? suffix)
- routable     # SOURCE commands for input selection present
- levelable    # INC/DEC step parameters for adjustable values

Notes

  • ESC/VP21 commands are ASCII-based. Projector responds with a colon (:) after successful command execution.
  • Error responses consist of ERR followed by 0x0D and :.
  • Step parameters (INC/DEC/INIT) apply to adjustable values; specific parameter names for this model are not documented in the source.
  • Source selection uses hexadecimal codes where the first digit identifies the input group (1=INPUT1, 2=INPUT2, 3=INPUT3, 4=VIDEO, A=HDMI, C=INPUT5, D=WirelessHD) and the second digit identifies the signal type within that group (0=cyclic, F=auto).
