Maintenance and Troubleshooting • A fan may have failed. Most fans are sensed. That means the electronics module knows whether they are running or not. If they don’t run when they should, the electronics module turns off the lamp and prevents it from striking (turning on) again. Swapping other parts: You can swap electronics modules or fans in the same way to see if one is bad. Note When you swap fans, always exchange fans of the same size.

7. Serial Communications To interface the CineWall with an automation/control system or a PC running terminal emulation software, connect it to the Display Control output of the DHD Controller as shown in Figure 4-3 and Figure 4-4. Connect your control system or PC to the RS-232 input of the DHD Controller as shown in Figure 4-10. 7.
Serial Communications Table 7-1 lists the RS-232 command set. The “Parameter (min/max)” column shows the valid parameter ranges, or “NA” for commands that take no parameters. When you enter a valid command, the DHD Controller executes it and acknowledges it with a plus sign on the command line (+ >). When you enter an invalid command – one that is misspelled or followed by values outside the valid range for that command – the DHD Controller ignores it and returns a minus sign (- >). Table 7-1.
