  - name: RS-232 during standby
    description: To keep RS-232 port active while TV is in standby, set "Power On Command" to Enable in the Custom Install menu before exiting. Without this, the TV cannot be powered on via RS-232 from standby.
  - name: Custom Install menu required
    description: RS-232 control requires enabling it in the Custom Install menu (access code 7310) before use.

Notes

RS-232 protocol is case-sensitive. Commands are ASCII with checksum. Termination is carriage return (0x0D). Client ID for Smart TVs is the last 3 bytes of the Ethernet MAC address; for Feature TVs it is selected in the TV menu; "ALL" broadcasts to all TVs. Query commands return 4-byte response data followed by checksum.

Command format: S[CLIENT_ID][COMMAND][DATA][CHECKSUM][0x0D] for set, Q[CLIENT_ID][COMMAND]????[CHECKSUM][0x0D] for query. Acknowledgements: OKAY, EROR, WAIT.

Broadcast (ALL) uses generic HEX command format; TV-specific commands include MAC address suffix.
