Command Protocol Overview
The camera accepts 8-bit command/value pairs via its RJ-11 serial port using RS-232
compatible signals. Camera commands are
"clock" commands, which apply to the
electronics that drive the image sensor. These
include clock generation, frame rate, integration
time, and binning. Each set of commands
includes read and write variants. With the
exception of reset commands, all 8-bit write
commands must be followed by an 8-bit data
byte. The commands are interpreted as follows:
WARNING: Any commands not listed should be considered invalid. Writing to invalid
!
addresses may overwrite camera calibration information, requiring the camera to be
returned for recalibration.
WARNING: Due to initialization sequencing after power-up, no commands should be sent to
the camera for a minimum of 1 second after power up.
