Thanks for the driver! It installs perfectly and shows the USB adapter on com8.

I'm still not getting any joy from this hex code though. Everything is lined up:

1. Driver installed
2. Plugged in to USB2 slot, not USB3 just in case.
3. Com port properly set in CW to 19200 baud.
4. Com port speed set to 19200 in control panel

Is there something special I need to enable in the Projector? Maybe there's an option to enable RS232 communication?

Should I dig around for an old school serial cable to see if that helps? For some reason the PC I'm using has a serial port.

I can't find the baud rate listed in the manual...where did you see that?

I think according to the instructions to setup everything it needs to run at 19200.

I'll have to see if I can find that PDF again.

Power ON
~XX00 0 7E 30 30 30 30 20 30 0D
Power OFF (0/2 for backward compatible)
~XX01 1 7E 30 30 30 31 20 31 0D

Thanks!

Hi,
Can you maybe post a screenshot of your hex code so I can copy it verbatim? Also what driver are you using with your USB-to-Serial cable? For the life of me I can't get the autoshutdown to work. Any advice??

Thanks!
