FCC INFORMATION
The equipment described in this manual has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC rules. These
specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio and television reception
interference in a residential installation. There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation.
To determine if your player is causing interference, turn the device off. If the interference stops, it
was most likely caused by the player. To eliminate the interference, you may try one or more of
the following corrective measures:
•
•
•
verify the cables and connectors between components are shielded.
increase separation between the player and components.
connect the changer into an outlet or circuit different from that which the
components are connected.
•
consult dealer or experienced radio/television technician for help.
The Federal Communications Commission offers a handbook that may help you with eliminating
interference. The handbook is titled Interference Handbook (stock number 004-000-00493-1) and
may be ordered from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402.
Warning: Any changes or modifications to this product that are not authorized by Pioneer could
void the FCC Certification and negate the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

INTERFACE
2.1 Interface Connector
A computer may be connected to the DVD-V7200 through either the RS-232 serial
port or the parallel port by using a 15-pin D-Sub connector (e.g., a JAE DALC-
J15SAF connector with suitable plug such as the JAE DA-15PF-N).
The pins are identified below:

Computer Control
2.3.2 External Switch Control (see Chapter 9)
Control the player with the External Option Switches (SW#).
Please make sure the Key Lock condition. If the player is in the Key Lock
mode, the player ignores the control. (Please refer to the Key Lock
command description.)
2.3.3 External Power Control
Control the player’s power with the Power pin within the
Interface Connector.
If the player detects a high signal throughput (100m/sec or
more) during the Standby mode, the player powers on. If the
player detects the same signal during the Power On mode, the
player powers off and switches to the Standby mode.
The specifications for the Power pin are as follows:
Maximum Input
Voltage
Less Than m 12V
High Level Signal
Low Level Signal
More Than 4.5V
Less Than 0.5V

SERIAL CONTROL
3.1
Serial Interface Specifications
3.1.1 Signal Interface
The signal interface is an RS-232C connection.
3.1.2 Data Type
Data Length: 8 bit
Stop Bit: 1 bit
Parity bit: No Parity
3.1.3 Data Transfer Speed (Baud rate)
The data transfer speed can be set to either 4800 or 9600 baud on the
Industrial player menu screen and/or with the Advanced Feature Menu Set
command.(Please refer to the DVD-V7200 Operating Instructions and/or
the Advanced Feature Menu Set command description.)
NOTE: The factory defaultis 4800 baud.The player memorizes the transfer
speed every time and that is retained after the power cycle reaches
completion.
3.2
Communication with a Computer
The DVD-V7200 communicates to the computer through the player’s RS-232C port
using pins 2 and 3 for communication and Pin 1 for grounding. Control or
“handshaking” lines other than the TxD and RxD connections are not required.
Please refer to the diagram below for clarification.
Computer

In some computer, the CTS port should be set to HIGH during the communication.
It is the best thing to connect the CTS of the computer to the DTR of the player. In
normal operation and communication is available, the DTR in the player is set to
HIGH thus the unit is able to receive a command at any time.

Computer Control
3.3
Command and Status
The computer transmits a command to the DVD-V7200 and the player responds
with the message, ‘execution complete’.
Example
COMPUTER
DVD-V7200
(1) “Search to Frame 1000”
Þ
Ü
(2) Search Execution
(3) Complete
(4) “Play to Frame 2000”
Þ
Ü
(5) Play Execution
(6) Complete
NOTE: The length of a command string is limited to 32 characters. Please refer to
COMMAND STRUCTURE.
When using a computer to control the DVD-V7200 player, follow the command
protocols listed below:
·
·
·
ASCII character codes are used for the actual commands and status response
Command mnemonic is expressed as two (2) ASCII characters
Uppercase letters are recommended; however, usually there are no
distinctions between the use of uppercase or lowercase letters
·
·
Some commands require an argument, (e.g. chapter number or speed)
Use a command as the terminator of the argument
The player executes a command as soon as the carriage return <CR> is received.
The <CR> acts as the command line terminator.
Example
CH<CR>
: Set chapter for address mode
10SE<CR> : Search to chapter 10
The player has a command buffer, which stores a command string of up to 32
characters in length.
Example
10SE 20PL<CR> : Search to chapter 10 then play to 20
The command string enters into the buffer with the left character and continues
sequentially from left to right. When the <CR> is entered, the commands are
executed sequentially beginning with the first command in the buffer. In the
example above, the first command is 10SE.
NOTE: The player ignores codes in the command string such as <SPACE>or <LF>
(line feed) which do not affect the player’s operation.

PIONEER DVD-V7200 Industrial DVD Player RS-232 Command Protocol Manual
NOTE: Some commands, sent after a specialty command which includes an
AUTOSTOP setting, (PL, MF, MR, etc.), cause the player to execute the new
command before the AUTOSTOP is enacted (see Chapter 5, Command
Descriptions).
When all the commands in a string have finished executing, the player transmits or
returns the "complete" message.
The player returns an Rafter a command has been executed. This response is called
the Automatic Status. The Automatic Status signals the computer program to send
the next command. If this function is not used, the command processing time must
be taken into consideration before the next command is sent.
If an error occurs, the player returns an error message such as E04. The message
indicates an error has occurred as well as the type of error. Error messages are in
the form of EXX where XX represents a 2-digit error code.
In some cases, an incorrect command sends the player to search within a non-
recorded area and the player returns an error message. Use the Request Status
function to determine the unit’s current status (actual player hardware failures are
rare).
Apply one of the following methods to reset the player after an error has occurred:
·
·
Use ?Pto determine the Active mode of the player
Use ?X, ?W, ?M, ?H, ?H?S to determine the player information, model name,
clock time, player region code, the setting of Industrial Player Menu, etc.
·
·
Use ?F, ?T, ?C, or ?R to determine the current frame, time, chapter,
title/track number, respectively.
Use ?V, ?D, ?K, ?G, ?Y, or ?Qto determine the disc information, disc type,
total frame number, TOC information, etc.
The status functions are summarized below:

Command Structure
NOTE: A command with an argument or address parameter is prefaced by arg
(argument) or ards(address). If the argor ardsis in parentheses ( ), the parameter is
optional.
4.1
Command Mnemonic
Each command is expressed as two (2) ASCII alphabetic characters. There is no
distinction between uppercase and lowercase letters except the Character strings in PR
command.
NOTE: All command without Text File Data Upload (UU), Reject (RJ) and Open (OP)
can not use while the video text is displayed on the screen. When any command without
these are issued, the player returns the error code E04.
4.2
Argument
An argument is expressed in either ASCII characters or ten digits and consists of either
an address or an integer. A Control Register uses an integer value to set a specified value
or condition.
If a command requires an argument, it is always placed before the command.
Example :
N1N2N3
minimum 000 ~ maximum 300
(except MS command)
Minimum 000 ~ maximum 520703 (Only MS command)
NOTE: If a command requires an argument but one is not supplied, the player returns an
error message.
An Address can be a title, a chapter, a track, an index number, a frame number, or a time
code depending upon how the address flag is set. The Address must not exceed the
maximum allowed value of ten characters and/or digits.

Command Structure
4.3
Command String
A command string consists of multiple commands on one line. The maximum length of a
command string is 32 characters. All command strings are terminated by the Carriage
Return <CR> code (0DH hex).
Example :
FR2000SE 2300PL<CR>
NOTE: The Real Time Clock Set (WW) , Print Character (PR), Blackboard/Stack Data
Upload (BU), Blackboard/Stack Data Download (BD), Weekly Timer Data Upload
(WU), Weekly Timer Data Download (WD), Text File Data Upload (UU) commands
should be assigned individually.
Once the <CR> termination command is added to the string, the command string is
evaluated and executed from left to right in sequential order.
If an error occurs during the execution of a command string, the remainder of the string
following that command is not executed.
If a new command string is input before the execution of the current string is complete,
the current string is aborted and the remaining commands are cleared.
To cancel a currently executing string, send the termination command <CR>alone.
If a new command without Text File Data Upload (UU) is input while the execution of
the current command stack, the remaining of the current command stack are cleared.
4.4
4.5
Status Returns
The completion message used in the Automatic Status is "R".
Example:
R<CR>
Error Message
An error message is indicated by the letter Eand followed by a two-character error code.
Example: EN1N2<CR>
The error message occurs when the given command cannot be processed.
4.6
Request Status Return
In response to a single request command, the status returns as a line of letters terminated
by <CR>.
If multiple request commands are sent to the player within the same command string, the
- 13 -

PIONEER DVD-V7200 Industrial DVD Player RS-232 Command Protocol Manual
player returns a separate status value upon completion of each command. A status value
is a character string with a <CR> termination code.
Example:
?C?F<CR>
Þ
02<CR>
10260<CR>
When the request command is at the end of the command string, the R within the
completion message is omitted.
Example:
Example:
ST?F<CR>
?FST<CR>
Þ
Þ
23005<CR> (completion omitted)
23005<CR>R<CR> (not omitted)
4.7
Timing
The time it takes to receive a command and return a Status Value is defined as follows:
T1represents the time from when the termination of the command string <CR>
is received to the beginning of the execution of the command extension. The
maximum is approximately 24ms.
T2 represents the time it takes to execute the command. Depending upon the
command type and the player’s condition, the minimum is 14ms.

Command Descriptions
If the player is in Random Access mode when the Play command is sent, the player
enters Play mode and returns the completed status message. The Play mode is the
only mode in which audio plays back simultaneously with video.
If an address is specified, an Auto Stop occurs on the selected sequence. The
specified address is written as a Mark Frame or Mark Time and is compared with the
current address. If the current address matches the specified address, the player
enters Still mode and returns the completed status message.
The Auto Stop command is canceled if another command is sent before the player
reaches the specified address. When this occurs, the player enters normal Play mode
(the Stop Marker command is similar in function to Auto Stop).
If a Picture Stop code is detected before the player reaches the specified address, the
player enters Still mode and returns an error message. However, if the disc program
does not allow a stop, the player ignores the command and it may return the error
message.

Function :
Stop Marker is set to the specified address
Format : Address SM
Explanation : The specified address is written into the Mark-Frame Register or
Mark-Chapter Register in accordance with the address specification flag. The player
returns the completed status message immediately.
The Stop Marker is cleared when the player reaches the marked address via a Play
command, a Multi-Speed operation or other action. The player enters the Pause
mode (CD) or the Still mode (other disc types) with no messages returned. However,
if the disc program does not allow a pause, the player ignores the command.
A Time Code or Chapter Number request notes whether or not the player reached a
marked address. The Clear and Reject commands remove the marker.
The Stop Marker is the same in functionality as the Play or Multi-Speed Auto Stop
commands. The primary difference is when the status message is returned. The
Multi-Speed Auto Stop command returns the completed status message when the
player reaches the marked address while the Stop Marker command returns the
message as soon as the Stop Marker is set.

program area prior to the read-out area while the Lead-Out Search command on a
DVD disc stops the player at the end of this title.

out point because the Lead-Out command requires the player to read video data in
advance.

CURRENT PLAYER CONDITION REQUEST DESCRIPTIONS
6.1 P-Block Number Request
Function :
The command returns information for the following volume groups:
DVD – Title Numbers, Chapter Numbers, Time
LB Compatible DVD (CAV) – Title, Chapter, CAV Frame Numbers
LB compatible DVD (CLV) – Title, Chapter, CLV Time
CD/VCD – Track Numbers, Index Numbers, Time, Block Numbers
Format : ?A
Explanation : The P-Block Number Request command sent to a DVD disc groups
title numbers, chapter numbers and time code information together and returns the
data in a single report. When the command is sent to a LB-compatible DVD disc, the
player returns title numbers, chapter numbers and CAV frame numbers or CLV time
codes. A request sent to a CD/VCD disc returns track numbers, index numbers,
block numbers and time codes.
The continuous frame count information may be missing from a report if the P-Block
Number Request is sent while the player is in normal playback mode. The player
does not update frame counts while processing this command. Rather than returning
an incorrect frame count, the player does not provide the data.
If the player is in Random Access Mode or is reading the lead-in/lead out area of the
disc, the report contains correct values.

EXTERNAL SWITCH CONTROL
To control the player through the Serial Interface Connector, use a special switching circuit. The
circuit pins must terminate to a +5 volts DC with an internal 20,000 ohms resistor.
To activate a function, create a switch contact with an electrical ground (Pin 1). Check Chapter 2
to verify pin (Pin 6 through Pin 13) and terminal (SW1 ~ SW8) assignments.
