GATEWAY ADDRESS (UDP Only)
This is a diagnostic tool to display IP address of the gateway if applicable.
EXTERNAL DATA INTERFACE – RECEIVED COMMANDS
External data must send command data packets with between four and seven bytes
including the CRC.
The system uses standard 8-bit data transfer with 1 start bit and 1 stop bit. Data is sent
least significant bit (LSB) first.
All command packets must start with a sync byte. The sync byte value is 0xFF. The
next byte is the lamp address. The lamp address is a value between 0x90 and 0xA8.
Lamp 0 address would therefore be sent as 0x90. The lamp address indicates to which
lamp on the system the remaining data is to be directed.
The next byte is the command. Some commands have subsequent data bytes. After
the command (and data where applicable) a CRC is sent. All commands are detailed
below; -
DATA_LAMP_BUTTON (0x0A)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). Switches the lamp state
from on to off or off to on.
DATA_FOCUS BUTTON (0x0B)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). operates the focus motor
momentarily. To keep the focus motor running the command must be sent repeatedly.
For systems where the data refresh rate is low see FOCUS_ON Command below.
DATA_MOVE_TO_HOME (0x0C)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). Lamp automatically
moves to the home position. If a home position has not been defined the home
position will be straight ahead with the lamp horizontal.
DATA_RECORD (0x0D)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). The lamp will start
recording motion and lamp on / off data when this code is received.
DATA_PLAY (0x0E)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). The lamp will start
playing back a previously recorded sequence when this code is received.
DATA_STORE_HOME (0x 0F)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). Stores the lamp current
pan and tilt position values and will move to these values when the
DATA_MOVE_TO_HOME command is issued.
DATA_LAMP2_BUTTON (0x12)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). Switches the lamp
second head state (if fitted) from on to off or off to on.
DATA_FOCUS2 BUTTON (0x13)
Four-byte command (Sync, Lamp address, command, CRC). operates the head 2 focus
motor momentarily (if fitted). To keep the focus motor running the command must be
sent repeatedly. For systems where the data refresh rate is low see FOCUS_HEAD2_ON
Command below.
