I have a
Samsung UN60EH6000 LED TV that I have connected to my PC via the EX-Link port with a 3.5mm to USB serial cable (found
here).
The TV will not respond to any commands I send it. I can successfully open a port and send commands, but I can never see a response. I am using
RealTerm to send commands. I've also used Hercules and PowerShell to open a port and send commands. I've tested with various commands, but I'll use the power off as an example.
In RealTerm, I am sending this: 0x08,0x022,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x01,0xD5 as Hex. When I look at the Log file, I see that the WriteCom is sending [08]""[00][00][00][01][D5]. I'm not sure if this is due to RealTerm, because sending data through a byte array in PowerShell did not work either.
I am using BAUD 9600, Parity None, 1 stop bit, and Data bit 8. I'm not sure if I have to set up the Samsung to receive commands. Some sources said there was a RS232 option in the service menu, but I didn't find any such option. Maybe the name changed?
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
