Starting/Finishing/Pausing a print

[reify]

The semicolon at the beginning is necessary. I'll try to figure out the RS233 shutdown command for the HD37 asap.

Hi, I have the OptomaHD37 and having auto shutoff is really a must because I often need to print over night. You probably have this but here is the hex code;

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!

Cool. How do we implement that into the Gcode at the end?

My projector is only 3 weeks old and it already has 600 hrs on the lamp.

It's easy. Simply click on CONTROL, EDIT COMMANDS, click on the 'Off' command and edit the HEX code.

Do you think it's possible to implement that change in the middle of a build? I mean, considering the cable is hooked up and the com port setup correctly, etc.

No.

Ok...another n00b question...

I tried to use that hex code as the power off option for the HD37 but it didn't work. Most definitely I have entered it incorrectly.

Is this what I'm supposed to put there:
1 7E 30 30 30 31 20 31 0D

or this:
01 1 7E 30 30 30 31 20 31 0D

I entered this in the box, hit apply and done and it didn't shutdown:
7E3030303120310D

Thanks!!!

Wrong hex code. Here's the correct one to auto power off the HD37:

7E 30 30 30 30 20 30 0D

Or, without spaces if you wanna c&p
7E3030303020300D

I'm getting a "Projector driver not installed" while trying to send the Turn Off command.

Is there some kinda driver required other than the serial-to-usb driver?

In the System properties of Control Panel I have a generic looking video component with an exclamation mark and no driver installed. Think that's it?
