Summary
Sharp/NEC NP Um361Xi Wk projector controlled via RS-232C serial or TCP/IP LAN (wired/wireless). Binary hex-frame protocol with a trailing checksum byte (low byte of sum of all preceding bytes). This spec covers the command catalogue from the Projector Control Command Reference Manual (BDT140013 Rev 7.1).
Transport
protocols:
- serial
- tcp
serial:
baud_rate: [115200, 38400, 19200, 9600, 4800] # bps, all supported per source
data_bits: 8
parity: none
stop_bits: 1
flow_control: null # UNRESOLVED: not explicitly stated (RTS/CTS pins present, full-duplex mode stated)
duplex: full
addressing:
port: 7142 # TCP, stated for LAN command send/receive
auth:
type: none # inferred: no auth procedure in source
# Frame format: <CMD bytes> <ID1> <ID2> <LEN> <DATA...> <CKS>
# Checksum = low-order one byte of sum of all preceding bytes.
Traits
traits:
- powerable # inferred: POWER ON / POWER OFF commands present
- queryable # inferred: many status/information request commands present
- levelable # inferred: picture/volume/lamp adjust commands present
- routable # inferred: INPUT SW CHANGE command present

Events
# No unsolicited notifications documented in source. Responses are command-driven only.
Macros
# No multi-step sequences explicitly described in source.
Safety

- power_on # blocks all other commands during warm-up
interlocks: []
notes: >
Source notes power-on/off block other commands during transitions. No explicit
safety interlock procedure, voltage/current specs, or fault-recovery sequences
are documented in this command reference.
# UNRESOLVED: no dedicated safety/interlock section in source.
Notes
- All commands/responses are hex byte frames terminated by a checksum byte
(
<CKS>), computed as the low-order one byte of the sum of all preceding bytes (see source example: 20h+81h+01h+60h+01h+00h = 103h → CKS=03h). - Frame structure:
<CMD1> <CMD2> <ID1> <ID2> <LEN> <DATA...> <CKS>.ID1is the projector's control ID;ID2is the model code. - Success response prefixes mirror command group (
2Xh); error response usesA Xhwith<ERR1> <ERR2>. See source error code table (ERR1/ERR2 combos). - Lamp/filter usage times update at one-minute intervals despite one-second resolution.
- For two-lamp models, lamp 2 (
DATA01=01h) is valid in 037-4. - Input terminal enums, eco-mode enums, and sub-input enums reference an Appendix ("Supplementary Information by Command") not present in this source.
Spec done. 53 actions = every source row. Serial+TCP both populated. CKS frame + checksum rule in Transport/Notes. Enums missing (Appendix not in source) marked UNRESOLVED, no fabrication.
