1. Overview
1-1. Introduction
The projector is remotely controllable over RS-232C as well as Ethernet. It is useful for controlling the
projector away from the operator.
This protocol manual describes the specifications such as packet format and procedures for controlling the
projector.
In the following sections below, the term “CONTROLLER” is used as a device which controls the projector. CONTROLLER can be a PC or other specific device that is able to handle RS-232C or Ethernet.
Although most of commands are available for both RS-232C and Ethernet, some commands are dedicated
to Ethernet.
* Ethernet is a registered trademark of Xerox Corporation.

Description
CONTROLLER
_
Command initiator such as PCs.
PROJECTOR

Front projector. (device)
SDAP
Simple Display Advertisement Protocol
Protocol name for advertising the projector status over
Ethernet.
SDCP
Simple Display Control Protocol
Protocol name for controlling projector over Ethernet.
DDDP
Dynamic Device Discovery Protocol
AMX Device Discovery is the protocol name by AMX
to enable to configure the AMX control system and
other intended devices.
SDCP
Simple Display Control Protocol
Protocol name for controlling projector over Ethernet.
SDDP
Simple Device Discover Protocol
Simple Device Discover Protocol is the protocol name
by Control4 to allow devices to be easily added to a
control system.
CIP
Crestron Internet Protocol
Protocol name used in Crestron RoomView and
control system by Crestron.
1-3. Protocol Stack Structure
The protocol stack structure diagram is shown below. Though the stack is drawn for RS-232C and Ethernet separately, the following portions are common.
Table 1-2 Common Portions in Protocol Stack
Layer Name
Description
Sub Command
Value is assigned for projector’s functions. Refer to the section 2-1 for detail description.
Simplified Command

3-3. Communication Procedure
3-3-1. Outline of Communication
All communication between CONTROLLER (PC, etc.) and DEVICE (PROJECTOR) is performed by the
command block format. Communication is started by the issue of a command at CONTROLLER and
ended when the return data is sent to CONTROLLER after DEVICE receives the command.
CONTROLLER is prohibited from sending several commands at one time. This means that after CONTROLLER sends one command, it cannot send other commands until DEVICE returns the return data.
DEVICE sends the return data after processing the command. The time from when CONTROLLER sends
the command until the return data is returned differs according to the contents of the command.
n
When Infrared Remote Command is sent, return data is not sent.
3-4. Communication Rules
. When sending a command from CONTROLLER (PC, etc.), the return data from DEVICE (PROJECTOR) should be received first before sending the next command. Even if the next command is sent
before receiving the return data, since DEVICE will not be able to receive that command, it does not
return a response to CONTROLLER. Consequently, no error code is also sent.
For detail of the waiting times for DEVICE to return the return data after CONTROLLER sends the
command, refer to the section 3-5.
. When a communication error occurs, DEVICE ignores the data received until now, and set into the
reception standby state.
. For undefined commands or commands determined as invalid by DEVICE, DEVICE will send the
“NAK” return data to CONTROLLER .
. Take note that when data is written when the input signal of DEVICE is unstable, that data (value) will
not be incorporated.
. When INDEX specified Infrared Remote command is transmitted, leave an interval of 45 msec until the
next transmission. (Do not return the return data (ACK, NAK) when the SIRCS direct command is
received.)
3-5. Approximate Return Waiting Times
The await-return time is approx. 30 to 3200 msec.
n
This is the case, unless the communications are interfered anyway.

It is prohibited that CONTROLLER send another command before receiving the response to the previous
command. Since PROJECTOR executes the command before sending the return data, CONTROLLER
must wait a while before receiving the response. The waiting time depends on not only the commands but
also network traffic.

8. Packet Examples
For setting the picture mode to dynamic, the packet should be as follows.
HEADER (VERSION, CATEGORY) = (02h, 0Ah)
COMMUNITY = “SONY” = (534F4E59h)
COMMAND (REQUEST, ITEM NO, DATA LENGTH) = (00h, 0002h, 02h)
DATA = 0000h
The same result can be obtained by using ENCAPSULATION mode as well.
HEADER (VERSION, CATEGORY) = (02h, 0Ah)
COMMUNITY = “SONY” = (534F4E59h)
COMMAND (REQUEST, ITEM NO, DATA LENGTH) = (00h, 7000h, 08h)
DATA (START CODE, ITEM NO, SET/GET, DATA, CHECK SUM, END CODE)
= (A9h, 0002h, 00h, 0000h, 02h, 9Ah)
