I am trying to control a Projection Design Optix using TSU9600 - RFX9600.

I have the control document off the PD wesbite and have follwoed all the setup instructions:
I am using a pin to pin cable:
Pin1-Pin1
Pin2-Pin2
Pin3-Pin3
Pin5-Pin5

Default code for Power On in the documentation is:
:POWR1'CR'

I have tried all the following commands with no success:
:POWR1'CR'
:POWR1\r
:POWR1\r\n
:POWR1\R
:POWR1\cr

Any ideas ??

yourSerialPort.match(":POWR1\r", "\r", 2000); should definetly do the trick.

Also double check that you set the comm. parameters (extender, port, bytes, parity, stopbits and _______) right.

Hi BluPhenix

Many thanks for the reply.

Sorry I am a bit new at this so don't quite understand what you mean by the 2000 at end there?

Will check all the above and try the command again & revert.

The match(..) method takes three arguments: a string to send, a response to wait for, and a timeout during which to wait for a response.

If the serial port is used synchronously (no onData callback set on it),

yourSerialPort.match(":POWR1\r", "\r", 2000);

will send out ":POWR1\r", and block script execution until either "\r" (Carriage return, 13 (decimal), 0x0d (hexadecimal)) is received, or 2000 milliseconds have passed.

Thanks Sogliphy, that does clear the issue up somewhat.

How would one check to see whether a /r is received back from the unit being controlled, the projector in this case using ProntoEdit?

As Sogliphy pointed out the match() function I provided gets the response data from the projector until it encounters a "\r" or it reaches the 2s (2000) timeout, which comes first. Your projector replays for each command it gets with a string that ends with "\r".

So the function above does this. Sends the projector the command and then:
a) waits for the projector to respond to the given command
b) waits for a response from the projector until the given time has passed.

So the answer to your question is:
match(":POWR1\r", "\r", 2000) ... sends the :POWR1\r" command and waits for the "\r" from the projector.
