Grass Valley VS Generic/Transparent mode
8.2.2.1.
Grass Valley mode
Grass Valley mode activates control of the Grass Valley camera using the
GV Serial Basic protocol. The Serial Basic protocol has less functionality
than the Serial Full protocol but allows the FocalPoint to multiplex
controllers and cameras over one UHF frequency,
This protocol also allows the possibility to control the camera without
Return Data configured,
Use Return Data where possible to optimize operation.
