2. Comms control
The remote control software controls all communications. Data send/receive (BSC handshake) is by transferring TEXT data to
the camera controller chip.
3. Comms procedure
The following pages indicate the camera controller chip and remote control software data protocol. In the description, the
camera is designated as slave and the software as master.
・Receive protect timer (time out error)
The receive protect timer for master and slave processes is 1 second. For example, if 1 block of TEXT data is being received,
if the data interval exceeds 1 second, error is produced and the data are lost. An acknowledgment of data receipt is not
produced.
