Re: Samsung UE55ES7000 - EX-Link


 

Try the IVO (Image Video On) power on CEC command. This will power up the display and switch it to the input on which it receives the command. I presume you're sending it from a DM RMC or HDMI output.

My model is actually the UN65D8000X but I would hope input would be the same, not?

The generic CEC mod does not switch inputs on the Samsung. I really need it to do that. I was told it needs to defualt to HDMI input as people keep playing the damn input buttons so when they next crew operates the system the input on the display isnt correct. I really was trying to avoid using an IR emitter since I confirmed power on/off using the CEC control. Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks,

not at all. I expect that the thing to do is to embrace CEC. There is a
device I just learned about that is basically an IP/serial to CEC converter.
Probably a good thing.

don't know how well it works, but it seems that CEC is probably going to be
the only reliable, non-ir, control moving forward.

regardless of the character sent. Sorry I cannot help.

I see it go out in debugger, the TV does nothing, and Rx$ is still silent.

At the moment I am using the program that is in the folder with the
module
from:


ed_partner_modules/default.asp?manufacturer_id=134

samsung_un55es8000_v1_0_demo

I've changed nothing so would expect it to be set up correctly.

I can send commands using Toolbox but nothing happens and I get no
feedback
from the com port.

The module offers lots of sends and feedback.

Maybe I should try the UN55ES7500 instead.

I've gone back to square 1 here to try and get this working.

I've got rid of my program and am just using the one supplied with
the
module.

I've uploaded it to my QM-RMC. (Was using an AV2)

I made the cable myself, pins 2,3,5 -> T,R,S tested it with a mm
several
times to be sure.

I've also tried changing the baud rate to 115200 as previously
suggested. It's now back on 9600.

I think the key thing here is that I am getting absolutely nothing
coming into SIMPL Debugger on the Rx$ of the com port that the Ex-Link
is
connected to.

The TV should be spurting something out regardless of what I am
sending
it no?

If you downloaded the UN55ES8000 module from the website. It's a
straight through cable.

Did you load BOTH the Hardware & Logic modules into your program?

Did you make your own cable, or use a Samsung cable?

I used the UN55ES8000 module on a 46" with a Samsung cable plugged
straight into a MC3 and it worked perfectly. ...wasn't a long run.

Thanks,

But does this actually apply to me? The pdf regarding the module
I
am using has no mention of injecting power...

I am connecting directly from an AV2 to the EX-Link port.

Have I missed something here? When others connect Ex-Link do you
not
connect directly?

Hi!

Check this info about ex-link

rs

Specially this!!!:

"As the TV uses 3.3V TTL levels, the serial input/output has
to
be
converted to/from TTL levels to RS232 levels (~10-15V). Thus a level
shifter
is needed. But most computers today, doesn't have an RS232 port, so you
also
need a USB-to-RS232 serial adapter (cable). Thus its a definite
advantage
to
buy a pre-fabricated USB-to-serial converter using 3.3 Volt TTL levels
on
the serial side. Common one to look for are based on the PL2303 and FTDI
chips.
WARNING! RS232 levels are up to 15V, which can cause seriously
damage at your TV!"

Javier VM

Hi,

I hope someone can have some patience and spoon feed me
through
this as I have sat here for hours and have got nowhere. I am guessing a
bit
so please let me know if I am doing something stupid.

Firstly this may all be down to me using a module that may
not
work as I can't find my TV.

I have a: UE55ES7000
Closest I can find is the UN55ES8000

I've made up a cable for EX-LINK control using the diagram
in
the module pdf

(integrated_partner_modules/help_files/959/samsung_un55es8000_v1_0_help.pdf)

Tested cable with multi-meter, seems fine.

I have set the value of the RS232 mode to Debug.

Tried a basic test with the module
