The CC5MPX will not send any files using PakBus that are
greater than 2MB.
16.2 CR1000 Files Manager
The Files Manager setting on the CR1000 facilitates the management of JPEG
and AVI files that are received from the camera. The Files Manager allows the
user to specify a name for the files and the number of files kept in a ring
memory type fashion.
The format of the Files Manager setting is as follows:
•
(AAAA,DDD:NAME.EXT,NNNN)
•
AAAA – Is the PakBus address of the camera
•
DDD – Is the destination drive on the CR1000
o USR for the user drive
o CRD for the compact flash memory card
•
NAME – Is any name string that will be used to name the files
•
EXT – The file extension of the incoming file must match. In the case of
the camera this must always be either “JPG” or “AVI”.
•
NNNN – The number of files kept in the ring memory. This number must
be low enough so that the memory required for the files is less than what is
available in the corresponding drive. Otherwise, the USR memory will not
ring and therefore will fill up and stop.
However, for the internal USR drive this would normally be between 3 and
10 images and for CRD drive (memory card) this can be larger. When
communications are used to retrieve images, it is suggested to limit the
number of files in the ring memory to 200 in order to avoid long
communication delays. An example of Files Manager setting is as follows:
(55,USR:SkySouth.JPG,3)
o Camera PakBus address is 55
o The files will be stored in the USR: director with a name
SkySouth####.JPG where #### is an incrementing number. Entering a
zero for this parameter will disable the automatic numbering and
produce a fixed file name.
o The 3 most recent files will be kept. A new incoming file will cause the
oldest to be deleted.
16.3 CR1000 COM Port (Control Port) Communications
On the CR1000 the control ports can be configured to function as RS-232
communication ports. Any of these 4 COM ports can be configured as PakBus
ports and used to communicate with the camera.
The COM ports can be activated as PakBus ports using the Device
Configuration utility or by using the SerialOpen instruction in the CR1000
program.
