Variables

# UNRESOLVED: no standalone settable parameters found beyond discrete commands

Events

# UNRESOLVED: no unsolicited event notifications described in source

Macros

# UNRESOLVED: no multi-step macro sequences described in source

Safety

confirmation_required_for: []
interlocks:
  - Lamp timer reset command (LPRE0001) only valid in standby mode
  - Lens shift commands may return ERR if lens cover not correctly attached
  - Wait at least 30 seconds after power on before sending commands
  - Allow processing time between commands to avoid ERR from command overlap

Notes

• Command format: 4-char command + 4-digit parameter + CR (0DH). Example: POWR___1 (power on)
• Underscore (_) in command string = space character
• Asterisk (*) in parameter column = variable range per Control Contents table
• Special polling commands (POWR????, TABN, TLPS, TPOW, TLPN, TLTT, TLTM, TLTL, TNAM, MNRD, PJN0) do not reset Auto Power Off or No Operation Off timers
• Factory default LAN settings: IP 192.168.150.2, DHCP off, subnet 255.255.255.0, gateway 0.0.0.0
• LAN data port factory default: 10002; configurable range 1025-65535
• LAN search port configurable range 1025-65535
• Web interface username/password max 8 characters; projector name max 12 characters
• Supported name characters: a-z, A-Z, 0-9, -, _, (,), space
• Auto logout range: 1-65535 minutes (0=disabled)
• RS-232C uses crossover cable; LAN uses crossover for direct PC connection, straight-through for hub connections
• If LAN comm fails, restart network via menu: Network > Restart Network
• Lamp timer reset only works in standby mode; successful reset returns OK
