Cinema 11v HD Video Processor
RS-232 Protocol and Control Details
Com Port Setup:
Use standard communications settings. The default that most devices use/accept is:
Baud Rate
Data Bits
Parity
Stop Bits
Handshaking
Com Port Pin Configuration:
Use standard pin configuration. A configuration that allows direct connection to a PC via
9-pin straight through serial cable is best. Use of only 3 pins(Transmit, Receive, Ground)
is best.
9 pin female D connector
Pin 2 = Transmit
Pin 3 = Receive
Pin 5 = Ground

Response data packets from the Cinema 11v to the HOST:
The Cinema 11v provides an Answer Parameters to the HOST when the Cinema 11v has
received a correct command request packet.
Start character : '@'
Return COMMAND : see Data Packet 'Return COMMAND list'.
Return Parameters : see Data Packet 'Return Parameters List'.

RS232-Interface Usage Details:
The RS-232 interface has a first-in-first-out (FIFO) buffer which will allow each command
to be received in direct succession. Commands are executed in the order in which they are
received with approximately a 1/2 second delay between each command. If a longer string
of commands is necessary, a minimum of 1/2 second delay should be added before sending
additional commands.
The Cinema 11v will send a NAK Response packet if the Cinema 11v has received an
incorrect HOST command packet.
