DLA-X500R Serial Driver
HARDWARE SETUP
==============
By Default the Projector should come with the control method set to serial. Menu/Functions/Communication Terminal
Use a DB9 Cross (null modem) cable to connect to the controller.
Baud rate : 19200bps
Data length : 8 bits
Parity : No
Stop bit : 1 bit
Flow control : No
Connector : D-Sub 9pin
Projector input : Control(RS-232C)
Driver Notes and Limitations
===========================
###Notes###
ISF MODE: You must turn the ISF Mode to ON before you can select the day or night modes. If the ISF is turned off and you have programming to change it to night mode the projector will ignore the command.
###Limitations###
Could not find the code for the MPC button to emulate the remotes button.
Could only find Gamma codes for Gamma A-D, the X75 has Gamma A-H
Could only find code for lens memory 1-3
Power On Delay Seconds:
Used to establish the amount of time that will elapse
during the power-on sequence before the driver continues to issue commands.
Power Off and Query Delay Seconds:
Projectors have multiple power states like warm up and cool down. This timer is used to query the power status after the projector has booted up and cooled down.
PROGRAMMING
===========
Variable: Projector_Operating_Status
There are 4 states to this variable
ON
OFF
COOLING
EMERGENCY
To access this variable go to programming and expand the device variables for the projector. Select the Projector_Operating_Status in the device events window (left). Do the same on the device action (right). In the Device Actions go to the conditionals of the Projector_Operating_Status variable. This is where you can type in the status of the variable. Example, you might want to trigger an email when the projector goes into its EMERGENCY state. Your script might say:
When the variable (Room Name) ->Projector_Operating_Status changes
If (Room Name) ->Projector->Projector_Operating_Status EQUALTO EMERGENCY
Email Notification to 'dealer@bestdealer.com' with subject as : EMERGENCY
Release Notes
=============
Version 2
Commented out two lines in the DEV_MSG.PW function to handle the power on coming back to fast after a firmware update.
Version 3
Fixed the issue where the driver would get into a state and not send any command because it was already "ON"
