Hi guys. I just had a projector vendor over and he showed us a couple of projectors. I liked the picture of the Christie (the other was a Hitachi), but should see some latter from a different vendor. I also noticed that it had 8 code sets which would be helpful since there will be two projectors in the room and that means I don't need to go with two different brands of projectors. My question is that I need to use composite and s-video at the same time and be able to discretely switch between the two (as well as comp1) using a Pronto, can the Christie do that? The sales guy said that he would ask his tech guy, but I trust you guys. Also any reasons not to go with a Christie?

nobody used this projector before, only used it with RS-232 or just don't want to help? Sorry for sounding rude, but I need to make my final recommendation ASAP and it is an important factor.

BTW there were three projectors in the afternoon Mitsubishi XL30, NEC VT770, NEC MT1065 and the Christy is still my front runner but only if it has discrete IR input codes

Just in case anyone is interested, it does have discrete input codes at least for composite, s-video, Computer RGB, component as well as many other discrete codes and some setup codes. I might send in my Pronto PCF in latter with on/off and the few inputs (what I was looking for) and the XL file with the rest of the findings

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE CODES FOR A CHRISTIE LW505 ONLY 2 POWER ON AND POWER OFF THAT IS ALL BUT CANT SEEM TO GET THEM ANY HELP?

Typing in all caps is considered yelling and rude. Learn to type!

Here is a link that should help for those codes:

i ma sorry about the caps but one question it only has power on my projector has stanby-power off as well maybe that is for a different projector do you happen to know where can i get those codes ? my projector is lwu505

i ma sorry about the caps but one question it only has power on my projector has stanby-power off as well maybe that is for a different projector do you happen to know where can i get those codes ? my projector is lwu505 this codes do not work with my projector I have already tried them.

This should help

Codes are near the end of the manual.

NOTHING LIKE DIGGING UP AN 8 YEAR OLD THREAD!

;)

Yup and, That model was a nightmare for me...the LX-32. I'm glad it's WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY behind me.

Those are the RS232 codes. He's asking for IR codes.


I don't think the IR codes are published anywhere online for that projector. So you have 2 options: 1) Contact Christie to get an IR file with the codes in it. 2) Buy another IR remote from Christie to learn the codes from.

Question: That is a fairly new projector, the customer has already lost the original remote that had all the codes on it???

Should i try with those codes instead of hex codes like the other ones will C00 or C001 work really instead of the long hex codes?

I have the control but how do i get the codes? I need to learn them but I need the input to put them on an automation program to control
The whole home theater.

????
You haven't given us any information at all.
What automation program? What home theater (components?)? What are you trying to do?

Need all details or it is impossible to help you.
