Sony KJX9500 Series Control Spec

Summary

Sony consumer LED/LCD monitor series supporting Simple IP Control over TCP (port 20060). Fixed 24-byte ASCII command protocol with FourCC command encoding. Supports power, volume, mute, input selection, picture mute, and scene setting control via network. IR command passthrough via setIrccCode. EU models have variant command availability per RED-DA compliance.

Macros

# No explicit multi-step macros described in source.

Safety

confirmation_required_for: []
interlocks:
  - description: "EU area models have 3 RED-DA specification types; settings and available commands differ per spec type. Commands marked with EU note may not be available on all EU models."
    source_line: 171-173
# UNRESOLVED: no explicit safety interlock procedure stated in source.

Notes

Fixed 24-byte message format: [*][S][MessageType][4-char Command][16-byte params][LF]. Header = 0x2A 0x53 (*S). Footer = 0x0A (LF). Message types: C=Control, E=Enquiry, A=Answer, N=Notify. FourCC command names in bytes[3–6]. Parameter bytes[7–22] include type-specific content (success 0000..., error FFFF..., or data). IR command codes for setIrccCode cover full remote button set including number pad, navigation, color buttons, playback transport, HDMI source selection, and power. Network interface queries (getBroadcastAddress, getMacAddress) require interface name parameter (e.g. eth0). EU model variant command restrictions noted but not enumerated in full.
