Hisense 5U67KUA Control Spec

Summary

Prosumer LCD TV supporting both RS-232 serial control and discrete IR. RS-232 protocol uses ASCII command/response format over 9600 8N1. Supports multi-TV addressing via MAC address-derived client IDs and broadcast (ALL). Protocol documented in "HISENSE RS232 CONTROL GUIDE" V3.6 (2017).

Transport

protocols:
  - serial
serial:
  baud_rate: 9600
  data_bits: 8
  parity: none
  stop_bits: 1
  flow_control: none
auth:
  type: none  # inferred: no auth procedure in source

# UNRESOLVED: TCP/IP control - source documents RS-232 only

Traits

# inferred from command set presence:
powerable: true
routable: true   # INPT (input source selection)
queryable: true  # QUERY variants for all major commands
levelable: true  # BRIT, CONT, COLR, TINT, SHRP, VOLM, BKLV

Actions

# Format: S[CLIENT_ID][COMMAND][DATA][CHECKSUM]<CR>
# CLIENT_ID = last 3 bytes of MAC address (hex) for Smart TV, or menu-selected value
# BROADCAST = ALL
# Query prefix: Q instead of S, DATA = ???? , response: [CLIENT_ID]:[ACK][DATA4][CHECKSUM]<CR>

Variables

# No standalone settable variables beyond action parameters.
# All parameters encoded directly in action commands.

Events

# UNRESOLVED: source does not document unsolicited event/notification messages from TV.
# TV sends only synchronous ACK responses to commands.

Macros

# UNRESOLVED: no explicit multi-step macro sequences documented in source.

Notes

Serial protocol is ASCII over RS-232C. Command format: [S|Q][CLIENT_ID][COMMAND][DATA][CHECKSUM]<CR>. CLIENT_ID for Smart TV = last 3 bytes of Ethernet MAC address (hex). Broadcast = ALL. Checksum is 8-bit modulo-256 sum of all bytes including CHECKSUM itself = 0.

Protocol documented as V3.6 (2017-04-17). Models covered include the Prosumer TV series including 5U67KUA.

IR section provides discrete Pronto CCF codes for use with IR学习型遥控器 transmitters — separate from RS-232 control.

ACK responses: OKAY (success), EROR (error), WAIT (processing — poll again).
