Communicating Data via
Serial Port
— Serial setting Page
When you click
Serial
on the Administrator menu, the
Serial setting page appears.
Use this page to set up for the date communication via
the serial interface. You can input data from a computer
via the network to this unit, and output it to an external
serial interface for controlling a peripheral device, or,
vice versa, input data from a peripheral device to this
unit via the external serial interface and output it to the
computer via the network.
Perform the setting to match the peripheral device you
connect to this unit.
Standard
Select the serial standard used to connect a peripheral
device via the serial interface:
RS232C
,
RS485
or
RS422
.
Note
If
RS485
is selected on the Standard menu, the data
communication is semi-duplex. Connect a peripheral
device supporting semi-duplex communication.
Mode
Select the port through which you send and receive data
via the network:
HTTP
(HTTP Generic Driver) or
TCP
(TCP Generic Driver), or select if this unit is controlled
using the VISCA protocol.
Normal:
Select this mode usually.
HTTP Transparent:
When you select
HTTP
, you can
realize data communication by creating an HTML
program with CGI commands embedded in the
computer.
For the CGI commands, consult your authorized
Sony dealer.
