SPECIAL APPLICATION INSTALLING YOUR PE1004CF 6 OPERATION Step 1. Use ESD safety precautions and always wear a ground strap when handling the PE1004CF expansion card. 7.1 RS-232 CONTROL The PE1004CF has many advanced remote control capabilities which are accessible through standard RS-232 communication. Actual controlling may be achieved using a computer control system or other device capable of sending RS-232 commands. Step 2. Prepare the card per the drawing in Diagram 4.
SPECIAL APPLICATION Example: 1. [SIDn] Send the command [VER] and receive the following feedback: PE1004CF 690-0207-001 PE1004CF = Model Number 690-0207-001 = Firmware Version This command sets the ID number of the unit. The default unit ID is zero. Command Format: [SIDn] n = Unit ID (n = # from 0 to 99) Example: 5. [STATUS] Send the command [SID1] to the system. The unit ID is now one, and “C1” must be included at the end of each command line, as in “[VERC1]”, for only the unit with ID1 to respond.
SPECIAL APPLICATION 7. [IN] 10. [ + ] This command is used to select the PE1004CF input that will be directed to the plasma display’s active expansion input. Command Format: [INnCi] This command increments a selected property, in this case equalization, to be adjusted using RS-232 control.
SPECIAL APPLICATION 12. […S] TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE This command will save the configuration command being sent to the PE1004CF into its nonvolatile memory. Example: Equalization We have carefully tested and have found no problems in the supplied PE1004CF. However, we would like to offer suggestions for the following: 8.1 NO DISPLAY If Input 4 is currently the active input, send the command [EQ100S] to save the equalization value of 100 for this input.
SPECIAL APPLICATION Cause 3: Solution: Cable connections are incorrect. Make sure that the cables are connected properly. Also, make sure that the continuity and wiring are good. If there is still no sound present, see Cause 4. Cause 4: Destination amplifier has a problem. Solution 1: Make sure that the destination amplifier is powered. If there is still no sound, see Solution 2 Solution 2: Set the volume of the destination amplifier to a reasonable level.
