AccuPiXEL Series Camera Serial Commands
The AccuPiXEL series cameras can be controlled by serial command either via RS-232 or Camera
Link. The Start character is always “:” and the End character is always <CR> (return). For example, to
set Asynchronous Pulse Width Mode, send the command :SA9<CR> to the camera. The following table
contains serial commands that can be used to control the camera.
