Projection dimensions calculation methods
If the screen size (diagonal) is SD (m), then the following formula is used to calculate the projection distance for the wide lens position (LW) and the projection distance for the telephoto lens position (LT).
*1 The i appearing after the resolution indicates an interlaced signal. *2 The following symbols are used to indicate picture quality. AA Maximum picture quality can be obtained. A Signals are converted by the image processing circuit before picture is projected. B Some loss of data occurs to make projection easier. *3 Signals with OK in the Resizing column can be set using the RESIZING command in the POSITION menu. (page 42) *4 Signals that are compatible with the FRAME LOCK function. (page 42)

For 16:9 aspect ratios, the following formula can be used to calculate the projection distance. PT-LB10NTU/PT-LB10U/PT-LB10SU LW=0.032xSD/0.0254-0.037 LT=0.039xSD/0.0254-0.037 PT-LB10VU/PT-LB10SVU LW=0.033xSD/0.0254-0.038 LT=0.040xSD/0.0254-0.038
*The values obtained from the formulas above are approximate.

Using the SERIAL connector
The serial connector which is on the connector panel of the projector conforms to the RS-232C interface specification, so that the projector can be controlled by a personal computer which is connected to this connector.

Control commands

The commands which the personal computer can use to control the projector are shown in the following table. Command Control Contents Power ON Remarks In standby mode, all commands other than the PON command are ignored. B The PON command is ignored during lamp ON control. B If a PON command is received while the cooling fan is operating after the lamp has switched off, the lamp is not turned back on again straight away, in order to protect the lamp. Parameter 000-063 (Adjustment value 0-63) Parameter VID=VIDEO SVD=S-VIDEO RG1=RGB (YPBPR) NWP=NETWORK (PT-LB10NTU only) Callback 0 = Standby 1 = Lamp ON control active 2 = Lamp ON 3 = Lamp OFF control active
