Command Structure

The Command Structure is binary coded with three consecutive 8-bit bytes. Synchronization is achieved by a
break in the transmission of more than three byte times. The first five bit of each command specifies the address
of the selected projector.

The 16 hardware addresses are 0-F (hex).

The address 1F (hex) is a global address that all connected projectors will accept. Several projectors can be
combined in a group by assigning them a special group address of 10 - 19 hex with a software command. Note,
global or group addresses are separate from the position that is selected on the address switch.

Three 8-bit bytes:

AAAAA MM 1

CCCC XXXD

XXXXXXXD

1. Byte

2. Byte

3. Byte

MM

CCCC
