API 

The Vaddio Serial Command protocol is a high level text based command line interface supported via telnet 
session on the ClearVIEW HD-USB PTZ Camera. The Vaddio Serial Command protocol is not supported on the 
RS-232 port.  The RS-232 port is dedicated for VISCA commands only.  The command application protocol 
interface is intended to allow external device such as AMX and Crestron to control the camera.  The protocol is 
based upon ASCII format following the VT100 terminal emulation standard and uses an intuitive textual 
command nomenclature for ease of use.  The API is accessed by a telnet client on the Ethernet port.  All ASCII 
characters will be 

echoed

 to terminal program and appended with VT100 string -

ESC[J 

(HEX- 1B 5B 4A).  

Vaddio Command lines are terminated on carriage return. After the carriage return, the VT100 appends with –

ESC[J

.  

(Note:

  Most terminal programs automatically strip the VT100 string.) 

  

General format usage follows a 

get/set

 structure. Usage examples for each type are: 

 

Set Example 

                                                                                       

 

COMMAND:  > camera pan right 
RESPONSE: > OK 

 

Get Example

 

COMMAND:  > stream mode get 
RESPONSE:   > streaming mode usb 

 

Syntax Error Example 

COMMAND: > camera pan right 
SPONRESE:  > ERROR

Additional programming controls associated with the terminal protocol includes: 

 

CTRL 5 

- Clears the current serial buffer on the device.  

 
Telnet sessions will require access verification and uses the same username and password associated with the 
Administrator account on the embedded web server.  The default Telnet Port is 23.  Command lines are 
terminated with a carriage return.
