RS-232 port
The RS-232 connector is used for changing the settings of the camera and for
communicating with the internal microcontroller. Please, refer to the Appendix C for detailed
description on wiring and the communication protocol. The same functions are alternatively
available via Camera Link.
The advantages of this separate port are faster operations due to hardware handshaking and
independence of the image grabbing. TVI Vision provides free software with source codes for
both options. Please specify the port, when ordering cameras.
The connector is a standard 9-pin, plug type connector with the following pin-out as seen
from the behind of the camera:

The 15-pin D-shell connector on the left side of the back plane is reserved for factory use.
New firmware updates can also be downloaded using this connector. Ask TVI Vision for
detailed procedure, before removing the cover of the connector.
