RS-232C Control Specification
Notes:
If [Power Saving Standby is set to enable] / [Power Saving is set ON] (Depend on the
models), the BD Player denies the command from RS-232C. It means the BD Player does
not turn on via RS-232C control. Please set [Power Saving = Normal Standby or Quick
Start Mode] / [Power Saving = Off] for the power on/off control via RS-232C. Please refer to
“Power Saving” setup part in each User manual for the detail.

1-3. Command format and answer format
This unit shall be based on commands each of which consists of a data row ( some commands are without a
PC ) composed of command codes ( CC ) and parameter codes ( PC ) . The trans-mitting station shall be
designed to send block check characters ( BCC ) following ETX, with the data row enclosed in STX ( text
start : 02h ) and ETX ( text termination : 03h ) . The receiving station shall regard receipt of BCC as the
completion of command reception when it has received STX.
Here are the formats.
Commands : <STX> <CC> <PC0> <PC1> <PC2> <---------> <PCn> <ETX> <BCCH> <BCCL>
STX (Start of TeXt) : 02h
CC (Command Code) : Command code
PC (Parameter Code) : Defined for each command
( Contents and number of parameters )
ETX (End of TeXt) : 03h
BCC (Block Check Character) :
CC + PC0 + PC1 + PC2 + --------------- + PCn + ETX = XYh
(Each of X and Y is 4 bit long ) X , Y=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F
BCCH ( high-level byte ) = X as converted to an ASCII code
BCCL ( low-level byte ) = Y as converted to an ASCII code
Answers : <STX> <RC> <AC> <PC0> <PC1> <PC2> <--------> <PCn> <ETX> <BCCH>
<BCCL>
STX (Start of TeXt) : 02h
RC (Reply Code) : Reply code (=Command code)
AC (Answer Code) : Answer code
PC (Parameter Code) : Defined for each command
( contents and number of parameters )
ETX (End of TeXt) : 03h
BCC (Block Check Character) :
RC +AC + PC0 + PC1 + PC2 + ------------- + PCn + ETX = XYh
(Each of X and Y is 4 bit long) X , Y=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F
BCCH ( high-level byte ) = X as converted to an ASCII code
BCCL ( low-level byte ) = Y as converted to an ASCII code

1-4. Protocol for data transmission and reception
This unit is based on half-duplex communication. The unit shall therefore transmit commands and
receive answers according to the following procedure.
1-4-1. Basic procedure
1) The host shall select commands for this unit and transmit them to this unit. Command
interval time is MIN 40µsec.
2) Having issued a command, the host shall receive an answer from this unit, then issue the
next command.
3) The host shall analyze the RC, AC, and PC as answers given and decide whether the
command has been normally executed.
4) The host shall give an answer to a command that gives operational instructions, then issue a
status request command, and decide whether this unit has finished operating with regard to
the command that gives operational instructions.
5) The time from the start of command transmission to the end of command transmission should
be max 40 msec.
6) The time from the completion of command transmission to the start of answer-back is MAX. 5
sec.
7) This unit cannot receive any commands for about 5 seconds after the power switch is turnied
on.
1-4-2. Communication errors
1) Having received a command, which results in a communication error ( overrun, framing, or
parity error ) , this unit shall give NAK ( 15h ) . ( MAX 80ms from the start of command
transmission )
2) If the host has received NAK from this unit, it shall retransmit the command that it has
transmitted immediately beforehand.
3) Having received an answer, which results in a communication error (overrun, framing, or
parity error), the host shall respond with NAK.
4) If it has received NAK from the host, this unit shall retransmit the answer it has transmitted
immediately beforehand. (MAX 40ms)
5) When there is no answer from the unit within 6s, the host shall retransmit the command.
