Overview :


The Sony NetworkProjectors MxM provides an easy way to control through TCP/IP .SONY video projectors where PJ-Talk is implemented. You must verify that the PJ-Talk service is started by accessing the Windows CE setup implemented in the projector. Use the remote control for that purpose, as described in the projector manual.

Installation (MXM) :

No specific installion is required.

Creation (Device) :




TCP/IP address: Address of the projector on the network. It is the address that you can set by communicating through a web browser with the projector.

TCP/IP port: The default port is 53484 and you can change it here if you have set a different port on the projector.

Polling (auto and period): If you want the MxM to scan the current values of the projector periodically, check this option and set the period, which is the amount of seconds between each polling. If this option is unchecked, you can still poll for each parameter by a command of the MxM.
