System commands
There are 3 types of commands. Normal command is to
request operation from PC to DVD player. Request command
is to request player status and Status command is to let the
PC know the change of DVD player status.
Upon reception of a command, DVD player will return either
OK, ERROR or Status.
ASCII code is used for data and letters are case sensitive.
The start character and the end character are added as
shown below for sending command and returning status.
The DVD player’s own ID code follows the start character.
This ID code is 1.
Start Character : ’@’
End Character : 0Dh
Command Sample “1?A”, 0Dh
(ID=1 Request Power Status)
FeedbOK Sample “1A1“, 0Dh
(ID=1 Power Status = On)
The following codes are used for OK and ERROR.
OK (data receive successful): 06h
ERROR (data receive error) : 15h
The receiving side ignores data received prior to ’@’. If 0Dh is
received without receiving ’@’, ERROR(data receive error) will
be returned.
For numeric data, ASCII coded hexadecimal number is used.
(example) For a decimal number 26
'1', 'A' 0x31, 0x41
