• HIGH ILLUMINANCE is a display with colors suited to bright locations.
• sRGB is for DVI-D, HDMI[PC], and D-SUB[RGB] input only. sRGB is international standard of color representation specified by IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). Color conversion is made in taking account of liquid crystal's characteristics and represents color tone close to its original image.

Caution

• When the input mode is [USB], operations 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, and 10 cannot be performed. Change an input mode to other than USB before performing these operations. COLOR MODE, VOLUME and SIZE can be changed while a file in a USB flash drive is being played. (See page 24.)

TIPS

- 8 SIZE, 9 DISPLAY, and 10 MODE are also used when playing a file in a USB flash drive and when entering text. Colors and operation names appear in the screen.

■Switching the screen size

Even when the screen size is changed, the display may remain the same depending on the input signal.

NORMAL		Displays image so it fills the screen without changing the aspect ratio of the input signals.
WIDE		Displays image so it fills the entire screen.
Dot by Dot		Displays the dots of the input signals as the corresponding dots on the screen.

TIPS

• Using this monitor's screen-size switching to compress or expand the screen for commercial or public viewing in establishments like cafes or hotels may infringe on the rights of the creators, as protected by Copyright Law, so please be careful.
• When "Enlarge" is set, the screen size is fixed to WIDE mode.
• The appearance of the original video may change if you select a screen size with a different aspect ratio than the original image (e.g. TV broadcast or video input from external equipment).
• When an ordinary non-wide image (4:3) is viewed with the whole screen using the screen-size switching function of this monitor, the edge of the image may be lost or appear distorted. If you wish to respect the creator's intentions, set the screen size to NORMAL.
• When playing commercial software, parts of the image (like subtitles) may be cropped. In this case select the optimal screen size using the screen-size switching function of this monitor. With some software, there may be noise or distortion at the edges of the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the software, and is not a malfunction.
• Depending on the original image size, black bands may remain at the edges of the screen.

Data length	8 bits
Parity bit	None

Stop bit	1 bit
Flow control	None

Communication procedure

■Command format

When a command is sent from the PC to the monitor, the monitor operates according to the received command and sends a response message to the PC.

Example: VOLM0030 VOLM ____ 30

* Be sure to input 4 characters for the parameter. Pad with spaces ("____") if necessary.

("☐" is a return code (0DH, 0AH or 0DH))

Wrong : VOLM30☐

Right : VOLM _ _ 30☐

Do not use spaces for DATE. Specify parameters using a specified number of characters.

If a command has "R" listed for "DIRECTION" in the "RS-232C command table" on page 36, the current value can be returned by using "?" as the parameter.

Example:

VOLM ? ? ? ?

From PC to monitor (How much is current volume setting?).

30

From monitor to PC (Current volume setting: 30).

* If an ID number (see page 33) has been assigned (For example, ID number = 1).

VOLM ____?

← From PC to monitor.

30 001

← From monitor to PC.

■Response code format

When a command has been executed correctly

A response is returned after a command is executed.

* If an ID number has been assigned

When a command has not been executed

* If an ID number has been assigned

TIPS

• "ERR" is returned when there is no relevant command or when the command cannot be used in the current state of the monitor.
• If communication has not been established for reasons such as a bad connection between the PC and monitor, nothing is returned (not even ERR).
• "ERR" may be returned when a command cannot be received correctly due to interference from the surrounding environment.

Please ensure that the system or software retries the command if this occurs.

- If no monitor has been assigned the designated ID number (e.g. if the command IDSL0002 is used, but no monitor with ID number: 2 is found), no response is returned.

If execution of the command is taking some time

When the following commands are used, "WAIT" is returned. In this case, a value will be returned if you wait a while. Do not send any command during this period. No ID number is attached to WAIT response.

- Commands which return WAIT:

1. When repeater control is used
2. When an IDSL or IDLK command is used
3. When one of the following commands is used: RSET, INPS, ASNC, WIDE, POWR, EMHV, EPHV, ESHV, ENLG

■Communication interval

• After OK or ERR is returned, you must send the following commands.
To set a timeout for the command response, specify 10 seconds or longer.
When connecting multiple monitors in a daisy chain, set the timeout to at least the product of the monitor's position from the computer multiplied by 10 seconds.
Example) 3rd monitor from computer: 30 seconds or longer.
- Provide an interval of 100 ms or more between the command response and the transmission of the next command.

TIPS

- When turning the power on while the POWER ON DELAY function is in use, set the timeout period to the POWER ON DELAY period + 10 seconds or longer.

Advanced operation

This section explains commands for daisy chain connection. The basic communication procedure is the same as in the "One-to-one connection with a PC" section.

ID SETTING

You can assign a unique ID number to each monitor (see page 27). This allows you to control a particular monitor in a daisy chain of monitors.

You can assign ID numbers either from the menu screen or from the PC using RS-232 cable.

[Example]

graph LR
    A["Computer"] --> B["ID number: 1"]
    B --> C["ID number: 2"]
    C --> D["ID number: 3"]
    D --> E["ID number: 4"]

If monitors are connected as shown above, you can execute commands like "Set the volume of the monitor with ID 4 to 20".

When designating ID numbers for a set of monitors linked in a daisy chain, you should basically avoid any duplication of ID numbers.

ID numbers do not have to be assigned in ascending order starting from the PC. They can also be connected as shown below.

graph LR
    A["Computer"] --> B["ID number: 3"]
    B --> C["ID number: 2"]
    C --> D["ID number: 4"]
    D --> E["ID number: 1"]

■Commands for ID control

The command examples shown on this page assume the following connection and ID SETTING.

graph LR
    A["Computer"] --> B["ID number: 1"]
    B --> C["ID number: 2"]
    C --> D["ID number: 3"]
    D --> E["ID number: 4"]

IDST ......A monitor receiving this command sets its own ID number in the parameter field.

Example:

IDST0001

OK 001 ← The ID number of this monitor is set to 1.

TIPS

You can automatically assign ID numbers by using the IDST command with the Repeater control (see "Repeater control" on page 35).

For example, using the command "IDST001+" automatically sets the ID numbers, as shown below.

[Example]

graph LR
    A["Computer"] --> B["ID number: 1"]
    B --> C["ID number: 2"]
    C --> D["ID number: 3"]
    D --> E["ID number: 4"]

IDST001 + ← ID setting command with repeater control WAIT

OK 001 ← "OK" response from ID number: 1

OK 002 ← "OK" response from ID number: 2

OK _ 003 ← "OK" response from ID number: 3

OK 004 ← "OK" response from ID number: 4 (End)

IDSL ......The parameter of this command sets the ID number of the monitor. The monitor is subject to the next command.

Example:

IDSL0002	←	The next command is for the monitor with ID number: 2.
WAIT	←	Searching for monitor with ID number: 2
OK_002	←	Found monitor with ID number: 2
VOLM0030	←	Sets volume of monitor with ID number: 2 to 30.
WAIT	←	Processing
OK_002	←	OK response from monitor with ID number: 2
VOLM0020	←	Sets volume to 20.
OK_001	←	The volume of the monitor with ID number: 1 (the one directly connected to the PC) is set to 20.*

* The |DSL command is effective only once, for the immediately succeeding command.

IDLK ....The parameter of this command sets the ID number of the monitor. The monitor is subject to all subsequent commands.

Example:

IDLK0002	←	Following commands are for the monitor with ID number: 2.
WAIT	←	Searching for monitor with ID number: 2
OK _ 002	←	Found monitor with ID number: 2
VOLM0030	←	Sets volume of monitor with ID number: 2 to 30.*
WAIT	←	Processing
OK _ 002
VOLM0020	←	Sets volume of monitor with ID number: 2 to 20.*
WAIT
OK _ 002
IDLK0000	←	Canceling fixed ID number setting
WAIT	←	Canceling IDLK
OK _ 002	←	Cancellation complete
VOLM0010
OK _ 001	←	The volume of the monitor with ID number: 1 (the one directly connected to the PC) is set to 10. (IDLK is canceled.)

* The IDLK command remains effective until it is canceled, or power is shut off.

■Repeater control

This system has a function to allow setting of multiple monitors connected in a daisy chain using a single command. This function is called repeater control. You can use Repeater control function without assigning ID numbers.

[Example]

graph LR
    A["Computer"] --> B["Set 1"]
    B --> C["Set 2"]
    C --> D["Set 3"]
    D --> E["Set 4"]

* If monitors are connected as shown above, you can execute a command like "Set all monitors' input settings to D-SUB".

■Repeater control command

Repeater control is achieved by setting the FOURTH CHARACTER of the parameter to "+".

Example:

VOLM030 + ← Sets volume of all monitors to 30.

In repeater control, responses are returned by all the connected monitors.

If you want to determine that a value has been returned by a specific set, assign ID numbers to each monitor in advance. When some monitors do not return their responses, the probable cause is that the monitors could not receive the command or command processing is not complete. Do not send a new command.

Example: (When 4 monitors are connected, and assigned ID numbers: 1 through 4)

VOLM030 +

WAIT

OK 001

OK 002

OK_003

OK 004

← If 4 monitors are connected in a chain, reliable operation can be ensured by sending a new command only after a reply has been returned by 4th (last) monitor.

Repeater control can also be used for reading settings.

Example:

VOLM ? ? ? +

WAIT

10 001

20 002

30 003

30 004

Volume settings for all monitors are returned.

TIPS

- If repeater control is used during ID designation (IDSL, IDLK), the ID designation is canceled.

Command-based control

You can control the monitor using RS-232C commands (see page 36) via terminal software and other appropriate applications.

Read the manual for the terminal software for detailed instructions.

(1) Connect the PC to the monitor.

1. Specify the IP address and data port number (fixed at "10008"), and connect the PC to the monitor.
   When connection has been established successfully, [☐ Login:] is returned as response.
2. Enter the user name and password. (The default settings are blank.)

(2) Send commands to control the monitor.

• The commands used are the same as those for RS-232C. Refer to the communication procedure (see page 32) for operation.
• Usable commands are provided in the RS-232C command table (see page 36).

(3) Disconnect the connection with the monitor and quit the function.

1. Send [BYE□]

When the transmission is successful, [goodbye] is returned and the connection is disconnected.

TIPS

- The connection is automatically disconnected if there is no communication for about 5 minutes.

Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing any problem with your display, before calling for service, please review the following troubleshooting tips.

There is no picture or sound.

• Is the power cord disconnected? (See page 14.)
• Is the main power switch off? (See page 17.)
- Is the monitor in standby mode (the power LED illuminating in orange)? (See page 17.)
• Make sure correct input mode is selected. (See page 19.)
- If any external equipment is connected, make sure the equipment is operating (playing back).

Remote control does not work.

• Are the batteries inserted with polarity (+,-) aligned? (See page 16.)
  • Are the batteries exhausted?
• Point the remote control unit toward the monitor's remote control sensor. (See page 16.)
  • Is operation disabled? (See page 28.)

Sound from left and right speakers is reversed.

• Are audio cables connected properly?

There is a picture but no sound.

• Is the sound muted?
• Make sure the volume is not set to minimum.
- Are audio cables connected properly?
- Is AUDIO OUTPUT or SPEAKER correctly set on the SETUP menu? (See page 27.)

Unstable video.

• The signal may be incompatible.

The video from the HDMI input terminal does not appear properly.

• Is the HDMI cable HDMI standard compliant? The monitor will not work with cables that are not standard compliant.
• Is the input signal compatible with this monitor? (See page 45.)
• If an AV signal such as 1920 x 1080i, 720(1440) x 576i, or 720 (1440) x 480i is displayed using the HDMI[PC] input, display problems such as faint colors may occur. Display using HDMI[AV].

The video from the DVI-D input terminal does not appear properly.

• Is the input signal compatible with this monitor? (See page 45.)
• Turn off the power to the connected equipment and then turn the power on again.
• If the monitors are connected in a daisy chain, turn off the power to all the monitors connected in a daisy chain and then turn the power on again.
• If an AV signal such as 1920 x 1080i, 720(1440) x 576i, or 720 (1440) x 480i is displayed using the DVI-D input, display problems such as faint colors may occur. Display using HDMI[AV], D-SUB[COMPONENT] or D-SUB[VIDEO].

The video from D-Sub input terminal does not appear properly.

- Is the input signal compatible with this monitor? (See page 45.)

Control buttons do not work.

There is no picture.

- Load noises from outside may be interfering with normal operation. Turn off the power and turn it on after waiting at least 5 seconds, and then check the operation.

The monitor makes a cracking sound.

- You may occasionally hear a cracking sound from the monitor. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands and contracts according to change in temperature. This does not affect the monitor's performance.

It takes a longer time until the monitor starts up.

- When a USB flash drive is connected, it is better to turn the power ON/OFF using the remote control unit. When the power is turned ON using the main power switch with a USB flash drive connected, the monitor startup takes a longer time because the monitor checks USB terminal connection after checking other terminal connections.

A file in the USB flash drive does not play properly.

- Is the file in a supported format? (See page 21.) The following problems may occur if a non-supported format is used:

• The file does not play properly.
• Pausing or Move forward/back cannot be performed during playback.
• Abnormal play speed
• Operations cannot be performed during playback
• Playback stops. The player application restarts.

The screen turns black when a file in a USB flash drive is played.

- The screen will turn black if none of the files in the play list are in the USB flash drive. Press INPUT to exit.

The Power LED is flashing in red and green alternately.

• When the internal temperature of the monitor rises excessively, the brightness of the backlight decreases automatically in order to prevent high-temperature-related problems. When this occurs, the Power LED flashes red and green alternately.
• If the internal temperature rises further, the monitor automatically enters standby mode. (The Power LED continues flashing red and green alternately.)
• Remove the cause of the excessive temperature rise.
• If the monitor enters standby mode due to a rise in temperature, to return to normal display, turn the power switch off and then back on again. The monitor, however, will enter standby mode again if the cause of the temperature rise is not eliminated. (See page 8.)
• Check whether the monitor is placed at a location where a quick rise in temperature is likely. Internal temperature rises quickly if the vents on the monitor are blocked.
• Internal temperature rises quickly if dust accumulates inside the monitor or around the vents. Remove dust if possible. Ask SHARP dealer about removing internal dust.

Mounting Precautions (For SHARP dealers and service engineers)

• Be sure to use a wall-mount bracket designed or designated for mounting the monitor.
• This monitor is designed to be installed on a concrete wall or pillar. Reinforced work might be necessary for some materials such as plaster / thin plastic board / wood before starting installation.
• This monitor and bracket must be installed on a wall which can endure at least 4 times or more the weight of the monitor. Install by the most suitable method for the material and the structure.
• To attach a VESA-compliant mounting bracket, use M6 screws that are 5/16 inch (8 mm) to 3/8 inch (10 mm) longer than the thickness of the mounting bracket.
  • Do not use an impact driver.
• When moving the monitor, hold the parts marked by ____ below. Do not hold the LCD panel. This may cause product damage, failure, or injury.
