7.5. Remote Interface Function
Through RS-232C interface, the camera can be controlled by external PC.
(1) The settings for RS-232C are as follows.
Baud rate:
9600bps
Data:
8
bits
Stop
bit:
1bit
Parity:
None
XON/XOFF:
Not
controlled
(2) Control code
・
The total control code is 14bits which conforms to ASCII code.
・
The control code consists of camera No, process code, remote controller address, remote
controller data, and CR. Execute Read/Write through PC, and the camera will reply the data.

Camera No shall consist of 6 bytes of characters/numeric strings. Send the individual camera
number code or common number code, “000000”. The reply data from the camera shall contain
the registered number for that camera.
Process
code
Input any one of R, W, or C to the process code. R (read mode) is to read the data of remote
controller address. Please be noted to set any dummy data (000

, since a
command shall consist of 14 bytes.
W (write mode) is to write the data to the remote controller address. Please be noted that the data
cannot be saved into EEPROM of the camera. (Reboot the camera, and the data is reset to the
initial setting.) To save the data into EEPROM, set camera internal switch, SW104-2, ON, and send
the save data, “83”, into the address 064.
Note; Once the data was saved into EEPROM, it may not be reset to the initial settings.
C is the code to send the data back from the camera.
Note; Do not set code C when sending the data from PC side.
