Sharp/NEC NP-PX2000UL RS-232 / IP control commands

Summary

Sharp/NEC NP-PX2000UL professional LCD projector, controlled via RS-232C serial (PC CONTROL D-SUB 9P) or wired/wireless LAN (TCP, port 7142). This spec covers the binary command catalogue documented in the Projector Control Command Reference Manual (BDT140013 Rev 7.1): power, input switching, mutes, picture/volume/aspect/lamp adjustments, lens shift/zoom/focus and lens-memory control, shutter, freeze, eco mode, edge blending, PiP/PbP, and a broad set of status/error queries.

Transport

protocols:
  - serial
  - tcp
serial:
  baud_rate: [115200, 38400, 19200, 9600, 4800]  # selectable; all five listed in source
  data_bits: 8
  parity: none
  stop_bits: 1
  flow_control: null  # UNRESOLVED: source pins RTS/CTS but does not state flow-control mode
addressing:
  port: 7142
auth:
  type: none  # inferred: no auth procedure in source

Frame format (from §2.1): commands/responses are hex byte frames. A typical request frame is <hdr> <cmd> 00h 00h <LEN> <DATA...> <CKS>. Success response header = request-header + 20h. Error response header = request-header + 80h, carrying <ERR1> <ERR2>. <ID1> = control ID, <ID2> = model code (variable per model). <CKS> = low byte of the sum of all preceding bytes.

Traits

traits:
  - powerable    # inferred: 015 POWER ON / 016 POWER OFF present
  - routable     # inferred: 018 INPUT SW CHANGE present
  - queryable    # inferred: extensive status request commands present
  - levelable    # inferred: 030-1 PICTURE ADJUST / 030-2 VOLUME ADJUST present
  - mutable      # inferred: picture/sound/onscreen mute on/off present

Actions

# All commands are binary hex frames. <CKS> = checksum (low byte of sum of preceding bytes).
# <ID1>/<ID2> are inserted by the transport layer per projector; literal payloads below
# reproduce the fixed opcode bytes verbatim from the source. Variable DATA bytes are
# shown as {placeholders} and described in params.

Notes

Binary protocol; all frames carry a trailing checksum <CKS> = low byte of the sum of all preceding bytes (see §2.2 worked example).
Response headers: success = request-header + 20h; error = request-header + 80h with <ERR1> <ERR2> per §2.4 error-code table (23 distinct error codes documented).
ID1 = projector control ID; ID2 = model code (varies per model — not enumerated in source).
Serial pinout: D-SUB 9P cross cable, pins 2/3 RXD/TXD, 5 GND, 7/8 RTS/CTS (see §1.1).
LAN: RJ-45, auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps; TCP port 7142 for command send/receive.
Several DATA01 value maps (input terminal, eco mode, sub-input, base-model-type) are referenced to a source "Appendix - Supplementary Information by Command" that is NOT present in this refined document.
