Re: Problems with NEC E-xx3 series via RS232

I have confirmed that control of the monitor is possible using only pins 2,3,5 from a laptop to the DB9-2.5mm adaptor at the monitor. However, still no luck with control from the MPC panel.

Maybe Neil is onto something with the 12vdc peak voltage from the com port. This is not a published spec, any idea of the rating from the MPC controller or a DM-RMC?

Having same problem with a NEC E533. I got a DPMS-200C using the RS232 on a DM-RMC-Scaler.

What about things like Ring Indicator and Carrier Detect? (Not that those matter to us, but I thought they were part of the spec?)

RS232 by definition doesn't support anything beyond 5 wires max for RX, TX, GND, CTS & RTS.

I have seen all kinda of issues with NEC E series displays bing VERY picky about the peak voltage the control device RS-232 port operates at. For instance 1-way ports peak at 5VDC and wouldn't control the NEC E-series but the full 2-way ports that support 12VDC peak would.

Could be the MPC ports don't do 12VDC peak.

Yes, this works with a full 9-pin cable using a full DB9 com port. But as anyone been able to control these with the usual 2,3,5? The monitor has a 4-position 2.5mm jack, with a supplied 2.5mm - DB9 adaptor. Pins 2,3,5 & 9 are wired at the adaptor, so maybe the monitor is looking for something on Pin 9? Trying to control these with an MPC controller, with only 2,3,5,7,8 available on the com port.

NECs PD Comms tool. Use a proper 2-way com port

We've tried just about every fix imaginable and every one that's been listed on here, to get the RS232 working with the new E463 NEC monitor. We can't find IR codes or RS232 codes to control the monitor. NEC tech support even said they didn't have IR or serial drivers for Crestron. Has anyone else come across a solution??
