Basic Format for Command Parameters
In order to transmit data from the computer to
the display, the data must be sent in 1-byte-hex
format.
The command code (see table below) must first
be sent to the display, followed by the desired
value setting in hexadecimal format.
The following is an example of a sequence to
change the displays input to RGB:
Step 1: Send 1-byte for command 91 (input
select) to the display in hex format 0x91
Step 2: Send 1-byte for the value of the RGB
input. In this example, send 0x06.
Step 3: The display will then respond back to
the PC with a 1-byte value to confirm
the setting.
