Shutter Mode
MODE(?)
c
{
,i
}
Set (query) the alternate mode for shutter
c
{
to
i
}
. Valid modes
range from 0 to 3 with zero being the default mode. The set form
sends the byte ‘0’, ‘1’, ‘2’ or ‘3’ to the shutter. The e
ff
ect of di
ff
erent
modes is hardware dependent; please see the shutter head manual
for descriptions of the available modes. The query form returns bits
12 and 13 of the shutter status byte (see
SSTB
).
Since the mode setting is stored in the volatile memory of the shutter
head, not in the SR474 , the mode setting is lost whenever the SR474
or the individual shutter head is reset or re-enabled.
Shutter Model
MODL?
c
Query the model number for shutter

‘X’ to the shutter and returns the response.

audible. If 1, alarms are muted.
