RS-232C Specifications and Commands
- Computer control
A computer can be used to control the projector by connecting an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type, commercially available) to the projector. (See page 24 of the projector’s operation manual for connection.) - Communication conditions
Set the serial port settings of the computer to match that of the table.
Signal format: Conforms to RS-232C standard. Parity bit: None
Baud rate*: 9,600 bps / 38,400 bps / 115,200 bps Stop bit: 1 bit
Data length: 8 bits Flow control: None
*Set the projector’s baud rate to the same rate as used by the computer. - Basic format
Commands from the computer are sent in the following order: command, parameter, and return code.
After the projector processes the command from the computer, it sends a response code to the computer.
Command format
Info
- When controlling the projector using RS-232C commands from a computer, wait for at least 30 seconds after the power has been turned on, and then transmit the commands.
- After sending an input selection or picture adjustment command and then receiving an “OK” response code, the projector may take some time to process the command. If a second command is sent while the projector is still processing the first command, you may receive an “ERR” response code. If this happens, try resending the second command.
- When more than one code is being sent, send each command only after the response code for the previous command from the projector is verified.
“POWER????”, “TABN _ _ _ 1”, “TLPS _ _ _ 1”, “TPOW _ _ _ 1”, “TLPN _ _ _ 1”, “TLTT _ _ _ 1”, “TLTM _ _ _ 1”, “TLTL _ _ _ 1”, “TNAM _ _ _ 1”, “MNRD _ _ _ 1”, “PJN0 _ _ _ 1” - When the projector receives the special commands shown above:
- The on-screen display will not disappear.
- The “Auto Power Off” timer will not be reset.
- The special commands are available for applications that require continuous polling.
Note
- If an underbar (_) appears in the parameter column, enter a space.
- If an asterisk (*) appears in the parameter column, enter a value in the range indicated in brackets under Control Contents.
Commands
Example: When turning on the projector, make the following setting.

FAQS
FAQ’s
Can I connect the crisper image to my laptop using a sub adaptor?
It features basic AV hookups, so as long as you connected a computer adaptor with regular AV wires, it will function. It is difficult to discern dark colors from the images the projector creates and it is necessary to place the projector close to the wall in order to see the image properly. The projector stand on which it rests conflicts with the standard type of cords, thus the AV cords that come with it are bent at a 90 degree angle. It can be difficult to find an adapter cord with the AV bent at that angle. All in all, this is a fun toy that is reasonably priced. Hope this was helpful.
Where is the volume button?
The volume control is located on the projector’s top.
