# Epson Projector Binding
This binding is compatible with Epson projectors that support the ESC/VP21 protocol over a serial port or USB to serial adapter.
Alternatively, you can connect to your projector via a TCP connection using a serial over IP device or by using`ser2net`.
## Supported Things
This binding supports two thing types based on the connection used: `projector-serial` and `projector-tcp`.
## Discovery
The projector thing cannot be auto-discovered, it has to be configured manually.
## Binding Configuration
There are no overall binding configuration settings that need to be set.
All settings are through thing configuration parameters.
## Thing Configuration
The `projector-serial` thing has the following configuration parameters:
- _serialPort_: Serial port device name that is connected to the Epson projector to control, e.g. COM1 on Windows, /dev/ttyS0 on Linux or /dev/tty.PL2303-0000103D on Mac
- _pollingInterval_: Polling interval in seconds to update channel states | 5-60 seconds; default 10 seconds
The `projector-tcp` thing has the following configuration parameters:
- _host_: IP address for the serial over IP device
- _port_: Port for the serial over IP device
- _pollingInterval_: Polling interval in seconds to update channel states | 5-60 seconds; default 10 seconds
Some notes:
* The binding should work on all Epson projectors that support the ESC/VP21 protocol, however not all binding channels will be useable on all projectors.
* The _source_ channel includes a dropdown with the most common source inputs.
* If your projector has a source input that is not in the dropdown, the two digit hex code to access that input will be displayed by the _source_ channel when that input is selected by the remote control.
* By using the sitemap mapping or a rule to send the input's code back to the _source_ channel, any source on the projector can be accessed by the binding.
* The following channels _aspectratio_, _colormode_, _luminance_, _gamma_ and _background_ are pre-populated with a full set of options and not every option will be useable on all projectors.
* If your projector has an option in one of the above mentioned channels that is not recognized by the binding, the channel will display 'UNKNOWN' if that un-recognized option is selected by the remote control.
* If the projector power is switched to off in the middle of a polling operation, some of the channel values may become undefined until the projector is switched on again.
* On Linux, you may get an error stating the serial port cannot be opened when the epsonprojector binding tries to load.
* You can get around this by adding the `openhab` user to the `dialout` group like this: `usermod -a -G dialout openhab`.
* Also on Linux you may have issues with the USB if using two serial USB devices e.g. epsonprojector and RFXcom. See the [general documentation about serial port configuration](/docs/administration/serial.html) for more on symlinking the USB ports.
* Here is an example of ser2net.conf you can use to share your serial port /dev/ttyUSB0 on IP port 4444 using [ser2net Linux tool](https://sourceforge.net/projects/ser2net/) (take care, the baud rate is specific to the Epson projector):
