The documentation you linked to says you need to use the following port settings:

Select RS-232C at Advanced Setting of the Menu.

  • Baud rate : 9600bps
  • Data length : 8 bits
  • Parity : No
  • Stop bit : 1 bit

  • Projector input : Control(RS-232C)

And make sure you serial cable is a cross-over cable (2->3, 3->2) not straight through.
