I am having trouble controlling my VPL-VW40 Sony Projector via RS232 from my MSC-400. I had no problem getting RS232 to work with my Integra Processor. Here is my set up:

Remote MX-3000
Controller: MSC-400
Connection: URC RS232F with Radio Shack Gender Changer. (Don’t have an extra RS232M yet)
Null Modem Adapter: Tried both with and without this Radio Shack Adapter
Baud Rate: 38.4kbps
Data: 8 Data Bits
Parity: Even
Stop: 1 bit
Commands I tried:
-All Preprogrammed Serial commands for the VPL-VW50
-I typed in the following manual commands (Without header):
1)Proj_On \xA9\x17\x2E\x00\x00\x00\x3F\x9A
2)Proj_Off \xA9\x17\x2F\x00\x00\x00\x3F\x9A

I don’t see any other Sony TVs in the Serial DB other than the VW50. I am not sure if my issue is that I am sending the wrong commands or I don’t have the correct connection. Any help that can be provided will greatly be appreciated. FYI, the only commands that need to work are ON, OFF and HDMI 1 input. Thanks again.
