Screen display for adjustment
Before making adjustments in the SCREEN menu or
PICTURE menu, display an image to brighten the entire
screen. If you are using a Windows PC, use the adjustment
pattern on the supplied CD-ROM.
Opening the adjustment pattern
The following example is performed in Windows 7.
1. Load the supplied CD-ROM into the computer’s CD-
ROM drive.
2. Open [CD Drive] in [Computer].
In Windows XP, open [CD Drive] in [My Computer].
3. Double-click [Adj_uty.exe].
The adjustment pattern will appear.
Adjust the screen automatically or manually.
4. When adjustment is finished, press the [Esc] on the
computer’s keyboard to quit the adjustment program.
5. Eject the CD-ROM from the CD-ROM drive.
TIPS
• If the display mode on the computer you are using is
65,000 colors, the color levels in the color pattern may
appear differently or grayscale may appear to be colored.
(This is due to the specifications of the input signal and is
not a malfunction.)

Controlling the Monitor with a PC (RS-232C)
You can control this monitor from a PC via RS-232C (COM
port) on the PC.
You can also connect multiple monitors via a daisy chain by
using a PC. By assigning ID numbers to each monitor (see
page 33), you can make input mode selection/adjustment or
can check the status of a specific monitor.
Precautions when the PN-ZB01 (optional) is attached
• To control the monitor via RS-232C, set RS-232C/LAN
SELECT to RS-232C.
• You cannot use RS-232C and LAN control simultaneously.
PC connection

One-to-one connection with a PC
Connect with RS-232 straight cable between the PC’s COM
port (RS-232C connector) and the RS-232C input terminal on
the monitor.

Advanced operation
Connect with RS-232 straight cable between the PC’s COM
port (RS-232C connector) and the RS-232C input terminal on
the first monitor.
Next, connect RS-232 straight cable to the first monitor’s
RS-232C output terminal and to the second monitor’s
RS-232C input terminal. Connect in the same way to the third
and subsequent monitors.
Up to 25 monitors can be connected. (Depending on the
length of the cable used and the surrounding environment.)

Communication conditions
Set the RS-232C communication settings on the PC to match
the monitor’s communication settings as follows:
Baud rate
*
Stop bit
1 bit
Data length
8 bits
Flow control
None
Parity bit
None
* Set to the same baud rate as the BAUD RATE setting of
SETUP menu. (Initial setting: 38400 bps)
* When connecting multiple monitors in a daisy chain, set all
monitors to the same BAUD RATE.
Communication procedure
n
Command format
When a command is sent from the PC to the monitor, the
monitor operates according to the received command and
sends a response message to the PC.

Command field
(4 prescribed
alphanumerical characters)
Parameter field
(4 character string comprised of:
0-9, +, -, space, ?)
Example: VOLM0030
VOLM 30
* Be sure to input 4 characters for the parameter. Pad with
spaces (“ ”) if necessary.
(“ ” is a return code (0D

When inputting a negative value, specify a numerical value in
three digits.
Example: AUTR-005
Do not use spaces for MPOS, DATE, and SC01 through
SC08. Specify parameters using a specified number of
characters.
Example: MPOS010097
If a command has “R” listed for “DIRECTION” in the
“RS-232C command table” on page 36, the current value can
be returned by using “?” as the parameter.
Example:
VOLM ? ? ? ?
←
From PC to monitor (How much
is current volume setting?).
30
←
From monitor to PC (Current
volume setting: 30).
* If an ID number (see page 33) has been assigned
(For example, ID number = 1).

TIPS
• “ERR” is returned when there is no relevant command or
when the command cannot be used in the current state of
the monitor.
• If communication has not been established for reasons
such as a bad connection between the PC and monitor,
nothing is returned (not even ERR).
• “ERR” may be returned when a command can’t be
received correctly due to interference from the surrounding
environment.
Please ensure that the system or software retries the
command if this occurs.
• If no monitor has been assigned the designated ID number
(e.g. if the command IDSL0002 is used, but no monitor
with ID number: 2 is found), no response is returned.

send any command during this period.
No ID number is attached to WAIT response.
• Commands which return WAIT:
1. When repeater control is used
2. When an IDSL or IDLK command is used
3. When one of the following commands is used: RSET,
INPS, ASNC, WIDE, EMAG, EPOS, PXSL, POWR,
AGIN, MWIN, MWIP, MWPP, ESTG, EMHV, EPHV,

Communication interval
• After OK or ERR is returned, you must send the following
commands.
To set a timeout for the command response, specify 10
seconds or longer.
When connecting multiple monitors in a daisy chain, set the
timeout to at least the product of the monitor’s position from
the computer multiplied by 10 seconds.
Example) 3rd monitor from computer: 30 seconds or longer.
• Provide an interval of 100 ms or more between the
command response and the transmission of the next
command.

TIPS
• When executing ALL RESET, set the timeout period to 30
seconds or longer.
• When turning the power on while the POWER ON DELAY
function is in use, set the timeout period to the POWER ON
DELAY period + 10 seconds or longer.
