Command Block Format / Communication Protocol
4
RS-232C
Command Block Format
Data communication between the remote controller and
the monitor is performed in accordance with the
following format.
• STX: start of text code value equals 02H.
• Byte Count
This indicates the number of data bytes (maximum
255 bytes) which have been inserted between this byte
and the Checksum byte. Values 00H, 01H, 02H are
illegal values.
• Destination address:
One byte address value which defines who receives
the message. The value 01H should be specified.
• Source address:
One byte address value which defines who transmits
the message. The destination to which the reply
should be sent is shown with this value. A value from
41H to 7FH should be specified.
• Command Block
This designates a particular command. Refer to
“Command Description” (on page 7) for the details.
• Checksum
This value is set so that the bottom eight bits of the
sum of all bytes from the byte count to the checksum
inclusive are zero.
Communication
Protocol
The remote controller should take the initiative in
communication between the remote controller and the
monitors.
The monitor will carry out one of the following actions
when receiving the message.
• When the received message is an undefined message,
a communication error occurs or the automatic
adjustment of APA or AUTO CHROMA/PHASE is
working, a NAK (05H) is issued.
• When the received command is a question, the specific
replay and data are issued.
• When the received command is anything else, an ACK
is issued.
The next message can be received as soon as a NAK is
issued from the monitor to the remote controller.
Notes
• If there are not enough or too many data bytes of data
values then a NAK is issued and no values are
specified.
• Bits which are not specified here are undefined bits
and their values are always ignored.

Used to control the current video signal being displayed
on the monitor.
The switches effectively being controlled are Input
Connector and Preset White Balance.
The command has two sections.
1. Information being changed
2. Values to be applied
1. Information being changed
The values are specified as follows:
1Input connector information
2Preset white balance information
When 1 is set in the bit position, information for the bit
is applied. When 0 is set, information for the bit is
ignored. When 1 is set in the 1and 2bit positions,
information on both items is applied.
2. Values to be applied
The values are specified as follows:
1Input connector
COMPOSITE = 0000

Control Data (23H)
Defines the keys on the front panel and data in the USER
CONTROL menu.
The command has two sections.
1. The element of CONTROL data being sent
2. CONTROL data value
1. The element of CONTROL data being sent
The element of CONTROL data being sent is the first
byte of data contained within the command block of the
message.
Several items of CONTROL data can be specified in one
message stream. When the bit of an item is set to 1, the
data value is changed, and it is set to 0, the data value is
not changed. When the byte value is 0, no data are
changed and an ACK is issued.
The values are specified as follows:
1CONTRAST
2APERTURE
3BRIGHTNESS
4PHASE
5CHROMA
6BACKLIGHT
2. CONTROL data value
Each value is one byte of data. APERTURE is specified
as 0 to 6, BACKLIGHT is specified as 0 to 5 and others
are 0 to 100 (8 bit data, MSB is a mark data. If the value
is a negative number, it is represented as a complement
of 2). The data is defined from the lower bit item to the
higher one. For example, if the PHASE and
CONTRAST data are defined, the PHASE data is
specified in the first byte and the CONTRAST data is
specified in the next byte.

MSB is a mark data. If the value is a negative number, it
is represented as a complement of 2). The data are
defined from the subordinate bit element to the
superordinate bit element in the data bytes. For
example, if the data to be adjusted are SIZE H and
SHIFT H, then the first byte of data bytes is for SHIFT
H and the next byte is for SIZE H.

White Balance Data (40H)
This command is used to save the values for USER of
the white balance data into the NVM of the monitor
from the remote controller.
Color temperature values are applied when the values
are set to “USER”.
The preset white balance data are not changed by this
command.
The command has two sections:
1. The elements of white balance data being sent (first
data byte and 14th data byte1))
2. The white balance values to be saved (second data
byte to 13th data byte)
Data bytes depend on the data items specified in the first
data byte and 14th data byte1).
1. The elements of white balance data being
sent
The element of white balance data being sent is judged
by the first data byte and 14th data byte1) of the
command block of the message.
Several elements of white balance data can be specified
in one message stream. When the bit of an item is set to
1, the data value is changed, and it is set to 0, the data
value is not changed.
The values are specified as follows:

1) Necessary when setting “USER4” and “USER5”. Adjustment values
from the second to the 14th data byte are necessary. However, only data
items set to “1” in the first data byte will be changed.
2. The white balance values to be saved
The elements of white balance data mentioned above
contained in the bit are accepted in the order from the
lower to upper bit elements. For example, when the bits
specified as B Bias and R Gain are set to 1, R Gain data
value is changed first, then B Bias value. The adjustment
values, which consist of two bytes, are sent in the order
from lower to upper byte elements.
Gain data consist of 12 bits and the setting values are in
the range between 0 and 4095.
The values are specified as follows:
1Numerical value data
This is not the data to increase or decrease the current
setting value.

Bias data consist of 11-bit. MSB is a Mark data and is
represented as a complement of 2. The setting values are
in the range between –1024 and 1023.
The values are specified as follows:
1Mark data
+ = 0
– = 1
2Numerical value data
This is not the data to increase or decrease the current
setting value.
Enter the adjustment value.
If the subcommand is not defined, NAK and an
undefined message error are issued. If the subcommand
is properly defined, ACK is issued.
