PDP-427CMX I NDUSTRIAL P LASMA D ISPLAY P ANEL S ERIAL C OMMAND R EFERENCE M ANUAL (version 1.0) This manual provides information for controlling the PDP-427CMX industrial pla sma display panel with an external communication device by using serial commands.
2 RS-232C Adjustment This display has an RS-232C terminal. It is possible to use a PC to make various adjustments and settings. 1 About the RS-232C Adjustment Adjustments using the RS-232C: • The adjustments are written to the same memory area as for the integrator mode (refer to section 5.
3 RS-232C Adjustment 2 Interface 1) Connector D-sub 9 pins (male/straight) 2) Pin layout 3) Baud Rate 9 600 bps (standard) (switch-able to 1 200, 2 400, 4 800, 19 200, 38 400 bps) Note The baud rate of this display should be set to match the baud rate of the PC.
4 RS-232C Adjustment 3 Combination Connection When controlling/adjusting panels, it is convenient to connect several displays to one PC. By performing a combination connection and assigning IDs to the panels, it is possible to control and adjust several displays at the same time or separately.
5 RS-232C Adjustment 4 ID Assignment The ID is assigned from the PC. Commands: <IDC> (ID CLEAR) ........ Clears the assigned ID <IDS> (ID SET) ............. Assigns an ID IDS is only effective when an ID is not assigned. IDs are assigned starting from the panel closest to the PC.
6 Under the connection conditions shown below, use a combination cable for up to 16 panels. Conditions: 1 Length of RS-232C cable connecting PC to Plasma Display: 5 m 2 Combination cable length: 5 m each 3 Wire specifications for linking cable: Mini Din 6-pin straight (7 strand cable) For one strand, suitable for AWG28: Cross-section area = 0.
