Method Commnunication Speed Data bit 8bit Stop bit 1bit Prity None Flow contorol None

(Electrical Specification)

Connecter : Made by Sumitomo3M Compatible with RS232C 2line system(TXD/send, RXD/Recieve)

(Process)

(1) PC CAMERA (2) CAMERA PC (3) CAMERA Processes "Command" (4) CAMERA PC

Normally it is processed as mentioned above,but in case of error,it ends by repeating error code in (4). Command and Command' are not always the same. Camera does not accept a command unless command process finishes and returns the return code

Half Duplex 9600bps

Command

ACK(H'06)

Command

Camera Command([STX][Command][ETX]) 2/26

Header is [STX] (H'02) and Delimiter for [ETX] (H'03), and Command of ASCII and / or Data can be inserted in between. Division of Command and Data is ": (H'3A)".

There are 2 kinds of Commands , one is for letters and the other for numbers. In total , there are 37 kinds of ASCII code code 0(H'30) to 9(H'39), A(H'41) to Z(H'5A),/(H'2F). For Command of (1) to (6) and (10) PC -> Camera(To), Camera -> PC(From) are the same in both ways, but for (7),(8) and (11) it is different between (To) and (From).

(1)Pattern 1 (For the Camera Operation ) There is no Data , only Command.

[STX] O ? S [ETX] H'02 H'4F H'** H'53 H'03

(2)Pattern 2 (Camera mode setting ) In order of Command, ":", Data. Data length id different by each Command and maximum 3 letters. [STX] O ? ? : ? ( ? ? ) [ETX] H'02 H'4F H'** H'** H'3A H'** (H'** H'**) H'03

Command Data

Caution : Data length is fixed for each Command and not able to decrease.

(3)Pattern 3 (Selection of Scene) In order of Command, ":", Data. Data length=1 Byte [STX] X S F : ? [ETX] H'02 H'58 H'53 H'46 H'3A H'** H'03

(4)Pattern 4 (Monitoring) In order of Command, ":", Data. Data length=1 Byte [STX] D ? ? : ? [ETX] H'02 H'44 H'** H'** H'3A H'** H'03

Camera Command([STX][Command][ETX]) 3/26

(5)Pattern 5 (Other Menus)

m

In order of Command, ":", Number Command(2 Bytes), ":", Data. Data length=2 Bytes. [STX] O S D : ? ? : ? ? [ETX] H'02 H'4F H'53 H'44 H'3A H'** H'** H'3A H'** H'** H'03 In this pattern, numbers at rear part of command (6th and 7th letters) are the command and Data follows by 2bytes (9th and 10th letters)

(6)Pattern 6 (Questions to Camera) There is only Command, not Data [STX] Q ? ? [ETX] H'02 H'51 H'** H'** H'03 This Command requires the programmed number of the Camera and Camera returns adding Data. Data is 2 Bytes but there are same exceptions. It is specified as Q(H'51) -> O(H'4F).

(7)Pattern 7 (Questions to Camera 2) In order of Command, ":", number of Command. No Data. Command from Camera is with Data. [STX] Q S D : ? ? [ETX] H'02 H'51 H'53 H'44 H'3A H'** H'** H'03 This Command also requires the programmed number of the Camera and the Command is converted into numbers. It can be programmed only by Ca a) PC -> CAMERA [STX] Q S D : 1 4 [ETX] H'02 H'51 H'53 H'44 H'3A H'31 H'34 H'03 b) CAMERA -> PC [STX] O S D : 1 4 : 1 4 [ETX] H'02 H'4F H'53 H'44 H'3A H'31 H'34 H'3A H'31 H'34 H'03

(8)Pattern 8 (Related to Contact Closer P/T) There is only Command, not Data [STX] H ? ? [ETX] H'02 H'48 H'** H'** H'03 Command for Lens I/F Card (AW-PB308) and control of lens for AW-E655. Camera repeats the same Command.
