●
In the case where the electronic shutter exposure time is externally set:
When the exposure time is set in the unit of H (horizontal scan time), the exposure setting count value of the time in H is
set.
Example) If the shutter exposure time is 17Hs (1/ 600):
STX: “S”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “0011”: ETX
●
In the case where the exposure time is set using the shutter SW number on the connector panel:
Example) If the shutter SW is set to “4”:
STX: “S”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “S4..”: ETX
●
In the case where the exposure time is set to 3Hs in the asynchronous/high speed shutter mode:
STX: “S”: “A”: “H”: “.”: “0003”: ETX
●
In the case where the control is returned to the one using the rear panel of the camera:
STX: “S”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “0000”: ETX
(Note) When the exposure time is externally set with the command “S”, the exposure time of the camera will finally be
locked to the position specified by the command or to the value directly specified. This locked state is released
when the exposure time is set to “0000” by RS-232C again as described above.
To release this locked state without using RS-232C after specifying the exposure time using RS-232C, perform
the procedure of “Read out of factory default” as described in the Section (6-8).
(5) Command “A”
Function: Command for setting analog image signal
Transmission from host: STX: “A”: (SETUP setting value): (WC setting value): “.”: ETX
Return by camera:
STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection) , or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)
(!) FS5000HECL does not use the values in parentheses.
(Note) FS5000HECL does not use the setting values corresponding to this command, but it is not regarded as error even
when it is input.
(6) Command “E”
Function: Command for editing shutter menu
Transmission from host: STX: “E”: “H”: SW0: SW1: SW2: SW3: SW4: SW5: SW6: SW7: SW8: SW9: ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)
* The exposure time (H) to be allocated to the shutter SW number is expressed in 4 digits in the hexadecimal system for
SW0 to SW9.
* The exposure time of SW0 cannot be changed.
Example) If only the exposure time of SW5 for the high speed shutter operation is changed to 88 (decimal):
STX: “E”: “H”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “.”
: “0058”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “.”: ETX
(7) Command “W”
Function: Command for saving operation mode (Write into page memory)
Transmission from host: STX: “W”: memory page (“A” to “F”): ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)
The current setting is written and saved in the EEPROM of the specified page number.
(8) Command “L”
Function: Command for reading out operation mode (Load)
Transmission from host: STX: “L”: reading page (“A” to “H”): ETX
Return by camera :
STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)
* The factory default is stored in the Page H, which will be used when resetting to the default setting.
<The following commands are exclusively for FC2000 and FS5000HECL, and not common with other FC cameras.>
(9) Command “WMC”
Function: Command for writing in configuration flag register (CR) (Write Mode Configuration)
Transmission from host: STX: “WMC”: flag setting value: ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)
The content of “flag setting value” (2 bytes/4 characters) is written in the configuration register.
(Note) This command does not execute the writing in EEPROM, and the setting by this command is lost when the power
is turned off. To save the setting value in EEPROM, use another command, “SMC”.
