Figure 2.12. RS232 Network

Connecting RS-422

If you wish to control the projector with a computer and or other controlling device

with RS-422 capability, connect a RS-422 serial communication cable between the

computer and the RS-422 port on the projector. RS-422 is better suited for serial

communication over long distances then is RS-232 communication.

Use the RS-422 port only if your device had RS-422 capability – always consult

the literature provided with your equipment before connecting. Connecting to the RS-

422 port with incompatible equipment could damage your projector.

Ethernet Communications

To add the projector to an existing Ethernet network with other equipment such as

controllers and other projectors, connect standard CAT5 Ethernet cable between your

Ethernet controller (or hub) and the Ethernet port on the side of the projector.

Upon connection to an Ethernet network, the projector’s factory default IP address of

0.0.0.0.0 will automatically enable the DHCP function (if available on the network) to

assign a new IP address that is valid and unique for that network. Or, if there is no

DHCP function available on the network (or if a specific static IP address for the

projector is preferred or required), you can set the address in the Ethernet Settings

menu or via an ASCII serial command.
