(Note)  When directly specifying the exposure time, only the following range of values is acceptable. The operation with 

other values than these is not guaranteed.   
Normal scan: H’0000 to H’01EC (D’0 to 492) (“0” is used only when the external specification is cancelled.) 
Partial scan: H’0000 to H’00A9 (D’0 to 169) (“0” is used only when the external specification is cancelled.) 

 
(5) Command “A” 

Function: Command for setting analog image signal 
 
Transmission from host:  STX: “A”: (SETUP setting value): (WC setting value): “.”: ETX 
Return by camera: 

STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection)   

 
(Note) FC1600FPL does not support this command. 
 

(6) Command “E” 

Function: Command for editing shutter menu 
 
Transmission from host:  STX: “E”: “H”: SW0: SW1: SW2: SW3: SW4: SW5: SW6: SW7: SW8: SW9: ETX 
Return by camera: 

STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection) 

 
*  The exposure time (H) to be allocated to the shutter SW number is expressed in 4 digits in the hexadecimal system for 

SW0 to SW9.   

*  The exposure time of SW0 cannot be changed.   
 
Example) If only the exposure time of SW5 for the high speed shutter operation is changed to 88 (decimal): 

STX: “E”: “H”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “.” 

: “0058”: “.”: “.”: “.”: “.”: ETX 

 

(7) Command “W” 

Function: Command for saving operation mode (Write into page memory) 
 
Transmission from host:  STX: “W”: memory page (“A” to “F”): ETX 
Return by camera: 

STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection) 

 
The current setting is written and saved in the EEPROM of the specified page number.   
 

(8) Command “L” 

Function: Command for reading out operation mode (Load) 
 
Transmission from host:  STX: “L”: reading page (“A” to “H”): ETX 
Return by camera : 

STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection) 

 
* The factory default is stored in the Page H, which will be used when resetting to the default setting.   

 
<The following commands are exclusively for FC1600FPL, and not common with other FC cameras.> 

 

(9) Command “WMC” 

Function: Command for writing in configuration flag register (CR) (Write Mode Configuration) 
 
Transmission from host:  STX: “WMC”: flag setting value: ETX 
Return by camera: 

STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion), or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection) 

 
The content of “flag setting value” (2 bytes/4 characters) is written in the configuration register.   
(Note)  This command does not execute the writing in EEPROM, and the setting by this command is lost when the power 

is turned off. To save the setting value in EEPROM, use another command, “SMC”. 

 

(10) Command “WMF” 

Function: Command for writing in mode flag register (FR) (Write Mode Flag) 
Transmission from host:  STX: “WMF”: flag setting value: ETX 
Return by camera : 

STX: ACK: ETX (transaction completion) or STX: NAK: ETX (transaction rejection) 

 
The content of “flag setting value” (2 bytes/4 characters) is written in the flag register.   
(Note)  This command does not execute the writing in EEPROM, and the setting by this command is lost when the power 

is turned off. To save the setting value in EEPROM, use other commands, “WA to WF”, to save in the specified 
pages. 

 

(11) Command “RMC” 

Function: Command for reading configuration flag register (CR) (Read Mode Configuration) 
 
Transmission from host:  STX: “RMC”: ETX 
Return by camera: 

STX:  ACK:  “RMC”:  flag  setting  value:  ETX  (transaction  completion),  or  STX:  NAK:  ETX 
(transaction rejection) 

 
The current content of the common mode flag register (2 bytes/4 characters) is returned in the hexadecimal system.
