3. RS-232C
3-1. Connection
Communication is enabled by the use of a D-Sub 9 Pin cross (reverse) cable.
The pin assignment of D-Sub 9 Pin and D-Sub 25 Pin is as follows.
The pin assignment of D-Sub 9 Pin and D-Sub 25 Pin is as follows.
Pin numbers indicated as D-Sub 25 Pin are not used.
Assured cable length: 15 m (However, assurance may not be applicable for some cables.)

The software for controlling the projector from a PC is intended for performing transmission and recep-
tion for only the TxD and RxD lines.
Therefore the handshake normally performed by RS-232C is not necessary.
