    Command List The VISCA devices each have a VISCA IN and VISCA VISCA RS-232C OUT connector. Set the DSR input (the DTR output of the controller) of Commands VISCA IN to H when controlling VISCA equipment from the controller. Use of RS-232C control software which has been developed based upon this command list may cause Fig. 1 VISCA network configuration malfunction or damage to hardware and software. Sony Corporation is not liable for any such damage. VISCA Equipment VISCA Controller Overview of VISCA In VISCA, the device producing the commands, for example, a computer, is called the controller, while the device receiving the commands, such as an EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P, is called the peripheral device. The EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P serves as a peripheral device in VISCA. In VISCA, up to seven peripheral devices like the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/ D90P can be connected to one controller using communication conforming to the RS-232C standard.

    D70 Mode Overview Switching the Mode The D70 mode allows you to control the EVI-D80N/ You can switch the D70 mode ON or OFF by switching D80P/D90N/D90P using VISCA commands for the the BOTTOM switch at the bottom of the EVI-D80N/ EVI-D70/P. Most of the VISCA commands for the D80P/D90N/D90P. To change the D70 mode setting, EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P correspond to one for move the BOTTOM switch to ON or OFF while the the EVI-D70/P. However, some of the VISCA camera’s power is off or the camera is in standby mode. commands for the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P are Then, turn the power on by connecting the camera to different from those for the EVI-D70/P in definitions an AC outlet or by using the VISCA commands or the of parameters. Remote Commander. When you send those commands to an EVI-D80N/ It takes about 7-16 seconds for the image to be D80P/D90N/D90P whose D70 mode is set to ON, the displayed after Pan/Tilt initialization motion has camera translates the parameters for the EVI-D70/P to stopped. those for the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P and Do not turn off DC power until the image has been executes the command.
