I am trying to power ON and OFF a Samsung Plasma using these commands

SEND_STRING dvPlasma,"$AA,$11,$01,$01,$01,14" //Power ON

SEND_STRING dvPlasma,"$AA,$11,$01,$01,$00,13" //Power OFF

I am taking display ID as 01...from where can we check the display id?

    You have to set the Display ID in the onscreen Menus. You can also use ID 0, but you won't get feedback.

    I did use:

    RS232: 9600,8,N,1 cable: 1:1

    Header = $AA
    Command = $11
    ID = $FF [id = 0]

    Checksum = command+data length+data 1
    If checksum is more then 2 digits, take the last 2 digits
    Calculate checksum = 112, checksum = 12

    Power ON
    $AA,$11,$FF,$01,$01,$12

    Power OFF
    $AA,$11,$FF,$01,$00,$11

    Get Power Status
    $AA,$11,$FF,$00,$10

    Sorry I was thinking in NEC protocol. $FE is broadcast in Samsung MDC. $FF is actually ID 1, $01 is ID 2. prakash your commands are targeted for ID 2, so you have to set the TV to be ID 2 for this to work, or try $FE as the ID. If that doesn't work, try a null modem adapter.
