4.2 Control of the camera

The Adimec-1000m camera is fully software controlled via the Camera Link cable using a simple ASCII based
protocol.
It is possible to save settings as ‘power-up default settings’ in the camera.

Delivered with the camera is a windows based application that can be used to interactively control the camera and
load and save power-up default settings.
Although this is the easiest way of changing camera settings it is also possible to communicate with the camera using
your own dedicated software. Please refer to Chapter 7 for the necessary communication protocol. In this chapter you
will also find a detailed description of the camera control commands. Appendix A gives an overview of the camera
commands and the possible ranges.

Even if you will only use the camera with the Windows based control application we suggest that you read the
following paragraphs as they explain the features of the camera, which commands to use and which limitations
apply.

4.2.1 Command parameters

All commands are composed of a command keyword and the required parameters for that specific command.
Parameters for the camera command-set are signed integer values.

Other parameter formats than signed integers are not allowed. In case of more than one parameter a semicolon
separates the parameter values ;;;;.

Negative values must start with a –––– character. Positive values do not need a preceding character but may optionally

start with a + character.

4.2.2 Command response messages

Each command with a question mark ???? is a query command. After the acknowledgement the camera sends the query

values for that command. In case of more than one value the returned values are separated with a semicolon ;;;;.

Values are preceded with –––– character when negative and a + character when positive.
