Communication conditions Set the RS-232C communication settings on the PC to match the monitor’s communication settings as follows: Baud rate 9600 bps Stop bit 1 bit Data length 8 bits Flow control None Parity bit 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. C1 C2 C3 C4 P1 P2 P3 P4 Return codeCommand field (4 prescribed alphanumerical characters)Parameter field (4 character string comprised of: 0-9, +, -, space, ?) Example: VOLM0030 VOLM

  • Be sure to input 4 characters for the parameter. Pad with spaces (“ ”) if necessary. (“ ” is a return code (0D

Wrong : VOLM30 Right : VOLM 30 When inputting a negative value, specify a numerical value in three digits. Example: AUTR-009 Do not use spaces for MPOS, DATE, and SC01 through SC08. Specify parameters using a specified number of characters. Example: MPOS010097 If a command has “R” listed for “DIRECTION” in the “RS-232C command table” on page 28, 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 25) has been assigned (For example, ID number = 1). VOLM ? ← From PC to monitor. 30 001 ← From monitor to PC.ENGLISH

  • If an ID number has been assigned

ID number of responding monitor Space (20H) Return code (0DH, 0AH) When a command has not been executed R RE Return code (0DH, 0AH)

  • If an ID number has been assigned
  • “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).
  • 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 IW TA Return code (0DH, 0AH) 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, EMAG, EPOS, PXSL, POWR,

AGIN, MWIN, MWIP, MWPP, ESTG

When control via RS-232C is locked (to prevent use) using the operation lock function (see page 23) EC DKOL Return code (0DH, 0AH)

  • 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.
  • Provide an interval of 100 ms or more between the command response and the transmission of the next command. VOLM0020

Interval of 100 ms or more 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 numbers You can assign a unique ID number to each monitor (see page 19). This allows you to control a particular monitor in a daisy chain of monitors. You can assign ID numbers either from the menu screen (using the remote control) or from the PC using RS-232 cable. [Example] ID number: 1 ID number: 2 ID number: 3 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 controlling monitors linked in a daisy chain by designating ID numbers, 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. [Example] ID number: 3 ID number: 2 ID number: 4 ID number: 1E

Controlling the Monitor with a PC

Commands for ID control The command examples shown on this page assume the following connection and ID number set up. ID number: 1 ID number: 2 ID number: 3 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 27). For example, using the command “IDST001+” automatically sets the ID numbers, as shown below. [Example] ID number: 1 ID number: 2 ID number: 3 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 IDSL 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 ← Cancelation 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. IDCK ........Provides screen display of the ID number currently assigned to a monitor, and the ID number currently set for IDLK (if any). Example: (After executing IDLK0002) IDCK0000

(Parameter has no meaning.) ID : 001 IDLK : 002

Returned response. The ID number is also displayed on the monitor screen. IDCK000 +

Controlling the Monitor with a PC

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] Set 1 Set 2 Set 3 Set 4

  • If monitors are connected as shown above, you can execute a command like “Set all monitors’ input settings to PC1 DIGITAL”.

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

Volume settings for all monitors are returned.

  • If repeater control is used during ID designation (IDSL, IDLK), the ID designation is canceled.
  • Commands that use parameters consisting of more than four characters can not be controlled by repeater control.E

Troubleshooting Before calling for repair services, make sure following checks for possible remedies to the encountered symptoms. There is no picture or sound.

  • Is the power cord disconnected? (See page 12.)
  • Is the main power switch set to “OFF”? (See page 14.)
  • Is the monitor in standby mode (the power LED illuminating in orange)? (See page 14.)
  • Make sure correct input mode is selected. (See page 15.)
  • 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 12.)
  • Are the batteries exhausted? (See page 12.)
  • Point the remote control unit toward the monitor’s remote control sensor. (See page 12.)
  • Is the menu display hidden or is operation disabled? (See page 23.) Sound from left and right speakers is reversed. Sound is heard from only one side.
  • Are audio cables connected properly? (See pages 10 and 11.)
  • Make sure audio cables for external speakers are connected properly: left and right cables may be reversed or one of the two cables may not be connected. (See page 11.)
  • Check the setting of BALANCE for AUDIO menu. (See page 18.) There is a picture but no sound.
  • Is the sound muted? (See page 15.)
  • Make sure the volume is not set to minimum. (See page 15.)
  • Is the PC audio cable (commercially available) connected? (See page 10.)
  • Are audio cables connected properly? (See page 10.)
  • Is the audio signal input properly to the audio input terminal corresponding to the selected video input terminal? (See page 15.) Unstable video.
  • The signal may be incompatible. (See pages 10 and 34.)
  • Try the automatic screen adjustment when the PC2 input terminal or PC3 input terminals is used. (See page 22.) PC1 or AV1 does not appear properly.
  • Is the setting of DVI SELECT correct? (See page 19.)
  • Is the input signal compatible with this monitor? (See pages 10 and 34.)
  • 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. PC3 or AV2 does not appear properly.
  • Is the setting of BNC SELECT correct? (See page 19.)
  • Is the input signal compatible with this monitor? (See page 34.) Control buttons do not work. There is no picture.
  • Some kind of load noises from outside might interfere with normal operation. Turn off the power and turn it on after waiting at least 5 seconds, and then check the operation. Power LED flashes red. “SERVICE CALL” appears in the corner of the screen.
  • Hardware has a problem. Turn off the monitor and request repair from your SHARP dealer. When “TEMPERATURE” is displayed.
  • When the internal temperature of the monitor rises excessively, the brightness of the backlight decreases in order to prevent high-temperature-related problems. Remove the cause of the excessive rise in temperature. (See the description below.) The monitor sometimes makes a cracking sound.
  • You may hear 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. ■ Warning when temperature rises
  • 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, “TEMPERATURE” is displayed on the screen and 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.) Solution:
  • If the monitor enters standby mode due to a rise in temperature, to return to normal display, turn the main 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 9.)
  • 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.ENGLISH
