Sharp LCLE750 Series Control Spec

Summary

Control spec for the Sharp LC-LE750 series large-format LCD monitors. Source document references "NEC LCD monitor" throughout (the LC-LE750 series is an OEM/rebranded NEC platform). Two external control interfaces are documented: RS-232C (9-pin D-Sub, 9600 8N1) and LAN (TCP port 7142). Protocol is a framed ASCII command set with header, message body, BCC checksum, and CR delimiter; command families are VCP (set/get numeric parameters) and CTL (discrete control commands like power, save, firmware, IR).

Safety

Notes

Source document is a Sharp-branded external-control manual that internally references "NEC LCD monitor" — the LC-LE750 is an NEC-OEM platform. Two transport options share one protocol: RS-232C 9600 8N1 9-pin D-Sub, and TCP port 7142 on Ethernet. TCP idle timeout 15 min — controller must reconnect. Inter-packet interval must be > 600 ms.

Every packet is ASCII-framed: SOH '0' DEST SRC TYPE LEN STX ... ETX BCC CR. DEST encodes Monitor ID (1-100) or group A-J, or '0x2A' for all. SRC must be '0'. TYPE: A=Command, B=Command reply, C=Get parameter, D=Get reply, E=Set parameter, F=Set reply. BCC = XOR of all bytes from D1 through Dn-1 (D17 in worked example). Delimiter is CR (0x0D).

All numeric fields are ASCII-encoded hex. Every byte is sent as two ASCII hex chars. Monitor ID '1' -> DEST 'A' (41h). 'Get/Set' for VCP carries OP code page (2 ASCII hex) + OP code (2 ASCII hex); the reply carries result, page, op, type (00=Set / 01=Momentary), max value, current/request value, ETX.

CTL-0C saves current adjusted values to NVRAM; without this command, changes may not persist across power cycles. Direct TV Channel (CTL-C22C/C22D) and Tuner input are listed in source as TV-tuner model features (US only — source footnote). Several audio/closed-caption/parental-control features marked with N/A in the OSD table are not exposed over RS-232/TCP — those rows omitted from Actions.

Known Gaps

- "manufacturer branding is inconsistent (source says \"NEC LCD monitor\"); behavior under specific firmware revisions not stated"
- "source does not document standalone settable parameters beyond the VCP actions above."
- "source does not document multi-step command sequences beyond the worked"
- "source does not document safety warnings, interlocks, or power-on sequencing"
- "source does not list which VCP OSD-menu rows are exposed vs. N/A in a machine-readable form; enumerated from chapter 8 table by hand. Firmware-version dependency on individual commands not stated."
