4.2.8 Bitrate Command
Purpose:
To set the bitrate of the serial communications link. The bitrate is changed immediately after
the successful receipt of this command. (The default bitrate is 9600.)
Type:
This is a write only command.
Write Command:

When changing the bitrate for serial communication, use the following procedure:
1. Issue the write command with the new bitrate.
2. Wait one second.
3. Change the bitrate on the serial port that the camera is using:
a) If you are using a Camera Link frame grabber, change the bit rate on the
frame grabber’s RS-644 serial port.
b) If you are using the camera with a k-BIC, change the bit rate on your PC’s
RS-232 serial port.
4. Resume communication.
Note:
At a camera reset or a power off/on, the camera will return to the 9600 bps
default setting.
The RS-644 serial port on some Camera Link frame grabbers will only support a
bitrate of 9600. If you are using a Camera Link frame grabber, check the grabber’s
documentation before attempting to change the bitrate.
