Serial Commands
HELP
Returns a list of all serial commands showing correct syntax and functionality descriptions.
INFO [tagname|service]
Gets information about a tag or service.
INFO with no arguments gets a list of services.
INFO <service> gets a list of tags in that service.
INFO <service.tagname> gets attributes of the tag as well as a list of subtags.
The AVP service allows retrieval of step and datum information from the job tree using
forward slash '/' in the symbolic name path. INFO avp/insp1/snapshot1/status paths are
not case-sensitive and do not need to be fully qualified if unique.
INFO avp/snapshot1/status will return the same result if there is only one inspection.
When issued against a step, INFO avp/snapshot1 returns properties of the step, a list of
child datums, and a list of child steps. Child steps are indicated by a trailing forward slash.
JOBBOOT [-slot=]<n>
Sets bootup job slot n (RS-232 only).
JOBDELETE {[-slot=]n|-all}
Deletes job in slot n, or all jobs if -all.
Important: Does not delete the current job loaded in camera memory.
JOBDOWNLOAD <-transfer={ymodem|ftp}> [-size=value] [-c]
Downloads a .avz job file via the specified transfer method (ymodem supported only over
RS-232; FTP supported only over network connection).
The ymodem transfer method only requires that the user send the .avz file via the
ymodem protocol over RS-232, and the job will load automatically after the transfer is
complete.
The FTP transfer method requires the user to perform the following steps to load the job:
• JOBDOWNLOAD: -transfer=ftp [-size=avpsizeinbytes]
Pre-creates a fixed-size /streamd0 RAMdisk to receive the .avz over FTP. If size is
omitted, the default RAM disk size is used to create /streamd0. The size of /streamd0 is
limited to (available contiguous RAM – minimum target contiguous RAM) / 2.
• User FTPs the job to /streamd0
• JOBLOAD: -mem -r
Loads .avz from /streamd0 into RAM, deletes the RAMDisk /streamd0, and optionally
starts the job (if -r is specified).
