Ha, learn something new every day. I just looked up the user manual for the TV and it just says “for special AV control use only” with no elaboration, and there is a related product that just says the RS-232 is for 3rd party control systems.

Thanks for the info on it.

Sure, usually only on commercial sets. This is used to remotely control the settings and operation of the set. Sony referred to it as “Control-C”.
