Hello folks. I’m asking for your help in this question.

We were using Projector Manager for a long time and is great… with Intel machines. But with our new Mac Studio with M1, we found have some crashes, and now we want to use PJ Link with script or some other application.

With Epson projectors, we use this script to Power on and Power Off projectors, and works fine.

tell application id "com.figure53.QLab.5" to tell front workspace

set theIp to "10.10.1.44"
set theMessage to "POWR 1"

do shell script "echo \"%1" & theMessage & "\\r\" | nc " & theIp & " 4352"

end tell

We tried a similar script to mute and unmute projector, but it doesn’t work

tell application id "com.figure53.QLab.5" to tell front workspace

set theIp to "10.10.1.44"
set theMessage to “AVMT 1"

do shell script "echo \"%1" & theMessage & "\\r\" | nc " & theIp & " 4352"

end tell

Do you know how to mute or unmute a projector using PJ Link with a similar script? Or some application similar to Projector Manager?

A quick Google suggests that whilst the power command might take the form “%1POWR 1\r”, the AVMT command takes forms like:

  • %1AVMT 11\r
  • %1AVMT 21\r
  • %1AVMT 31\r

I think you need an extra digit?

Hello Rich, thank you for your answer.
It´s working now with AVMT 30  (for open) and AVMT 31 (for close shutter). I found the script in the web of sigmasix, owner of Projector Manager. https://www.sigmasix.ch/apps/applescripts
Only works with projector without password.
Best
Enrique.
