The user can send serial commands directly through a terminal, or can use the GUIs provided in NI MAX

including camera configuration settings, will be sent to the camera each time “Snap” or “Grab” buttons
are clicked. This occurs in the background and is not obvious. This functionality can be disabled by
unclicking the “Serial Commands Enabled” checkbox in NI MAX and saving the .ICD file.
