Rcp Assignment Control Commands - Sony CNA-1 Technical Manual

"01": RCP Status which is represented by bit
info.
bit 1: 0 = Assignment is default, 1 =
Assignment has been changed
bit 0: 0 = not Available, 1 = Available
According to this info, you can see that RCP No.1 is assigned
to Camera No.1, it's assignment is default value and it is
available on the CNS. The status of RCP No.2 can be parsed
as well.
Change RCP assignment
Now, we change the assignment of RCP No.2 to Camera
No.1. The result should be as follows.
"
RCP Assignment
RCP-01 Camera-01
RCP-02 Camera -01
The SSCP commands to do this is follows.
"6d,6d,09,fe,12,01,00,02,fe,01,00,00\n"
"6d": Command Group of RCP Assignment
"6d" This means 'Request RCP assignment
change'
"09" Data length after this parameter
"fe,12": Fixed value
"01": Number of RCP info which you want to
change
"00": Fixed value
"02": RCP No.
"fe": Fixed value
"01": Camera No. to which you want assign
"00,00": Fixed value
Send this command and you will receive RCP-02 status info
which was changed as a reply.
"6d,8d,08,fe,12,01,00,02,fe,01,03\n"
"6d": Command Group of RCP Assignment
"8d": Reply of 'Request RCP assignment
change'
"08": Data length after this parameter
"fe,12": Fixed value
"01": Number of RCP status info. There are
one status info on this command
"00,02,fe,01,03": Status info of RCP No.2
We already saw how to interpret the status of RCP on the
command in previous section.
In this case, RCP No.2 status of "00,02,fe,01,03" is showing
that it is assigned to Camera No.1, its assignment has been
changed and it is available on the CNS.
So far, we have seen how the SSCP commands work with
RCP assignment in some cases. For more information about
command's specification, refer the explanation from next
chapter.

RCP Assignment control commands

To control RCP assignment, we provide command group
(CMD-GP) of 0x6d. Since RCP assignment is managed in
CNS Master device, you need one Master device in you CNS,
and the task of CMD-GP 0x6d is communication with Master
device.
Each command in this group is distinguished by PARAM0.
Following list shows all commands in CMD-GP 0x6d:
"
PARAM0 Task of Command
0x48 Request Camera number range info to CNS Master
device
0x88 Reply of Camera number range info from CNS Master
device
0x49 Request Camera status to CNS Master device
0x89 Reply of Camera status from CNS Master device
