3) Camera version report
Transmission from host: STX: “R”: “V”: ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: “R”:
“Takenaka SYS.FS5000GE VX.XX TXXXXX”: ETX
* The underlined values show the control program version number of the camera and a file name. These values and
the number of characters vary by program version. Use it when confirming the communication mode of the camera
and obtaining internal information of the camera.
The maximum number of the characters to be inserted between ACK and ETX is 48.
4) Shutter SW report
Transmission from host: STX: “R”: “T”: “H” or “L”: ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: “R”: “H” or “L”:
SW0: SW1: SW2: SW3: SW4: SW5: SW6: SW7: SW8: SW9: ETX
5) Shutter mode report
Transmission from host: STX: “R”: “S”: ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: “R”: “A” or “M”: “H” or “L”: “N” or “F”: Exposure time: ETX
Character strings has the following meanings.
STX: ACK: “R”: “A” or “M”: “H” or “L”: “N” or “F”: Exposure time: ETX
*1 *2 *3 *4
*1 A: Asynchronous shutter
M: Continuous shutter
*2 H: High speed shutter
L: Low speed shutter
*3 N: Normal scan
F: (Not used)
*4
: Exposure time
●
Four characters are returned as the electronic shutter exposure time.
●
In the case where the electronic shutter exposure time is externally set:
When the exposure time is set in the unit of H (horizontal scan time), the exposure setting count value of the
time in H is returned.
Example) If the shutter exposure time is 8Hs (Horizontal scan time
×
8): 0008”
If the shutter exposure time is 120Hs (Horizontal scan time
×
120
): “00A0”
●
In the case where the electronic shutter exposure time is set by the hypothetical shutter switch number l:
Example) If the shutter switch is set to “4”:
“I4..”
●
In the case where the electronic shutter exposure time is set by the shutter switch number via a serial
communication command:
Example) If “3” is specified for the shutter switch, :
“S3..”
(Note)
The allowable range is as follows when in directly specifying the exposure time. The operation out of the range is not
guaranteed.
In High speed shutter: H’0000 to H’0806 (D’0 to 2054) (Where, “0” is used only when cancelling the external shutter setting. )
In Low speed shutter: H’0000 to H’00FF (D’0 to 255) (Where, “0” is used only when cancelling the external shutter setting. )

Command “G”
Function: Command for setting gain
Transmission from host: STX: “G”: MGC set value: AGC set value: (VRT set value): (VRB set value): OFFSET set value:
ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion) or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)
(!) This camera does not use the values in parentheses “ . ” must be transmitted to the camera.
2 digit ASCII codes in the hexadecimal system are used for the data setting values of MGC,AGC and OFFSET.
Example) If level 128 (decimal) is set:
“80”
If level 200 (decimal) is set:
“C8”
The setting value that does not require a change should be represented by “.” (a full stop) so that the setting value before
the command transmission is retained.
Example) if only MGC is changed to Level 90 (decimal):
STX: “G”: “5A”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “.”: ETX
(5) Command “S”
Function: Command for setting shutter mode and shutter exposure time
Transmission from host: STX: “S”: “A” or “M”: “H” or “L”: “N” or “F”: exposure time: ETX
Return by camera:
STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)
The transmitting command has the following meanings:
STX: “S”: “A” or “M”: “H” or “L”: “N” or “F”: Exposure time: ETX
