Epson Powerlite RS232 PWR ON and PWR OFF

Get Help
1

Hello,

I have been trying to turn on and off Epson powerlites via a USB serial adapter. I can get them to respond to commands with putty but I have no such luck with Xibo. I tapped the RS232 line and made sure that Xibo was actually sending the commands over the wire and it was, however a new line was not being entered after Xibo sent the command. I will list the commands I am using below, I am using Xibo players on Windows.

rs232|COM3,9600,8,None,One,None|PWR ON

Edit:
I still would love to get the native Xibo RS232 functionality going however for now I just wrote a quick python script I call with Xibo that can control the projectors.

It looks like you might be missing the Carriage Return character? Not sure if your code included that or not.
Usually represented as “0x0D” when combined in an ASCII string.

I will give that a go and report. Thank you!

That worked great, thank you so much! Any idea if I can send that command out multiple serial ports with one command?

I haven’t used Xibo commands before, but I assume there would be a way to ‘chain’ separate commands in order to send to another serial port. Maybe check if this is possible? So you would essentially be sending two separate commands at once.
