3.3 Reading the Camera Type

This read command returns an 8-bit value unique to the type of camera interrogated. A
6M3P will return a value of 33h when this command is issued. This is useful for
applications that need to function with multiple DALSTAR camera types.
Example: Read the camera type
Binary
Hex

3.4 Reading the Firmware Revision

This command returns a byte in which the lower nibble is the revision number for the
clock board firmware and the upper nibble is undefined. The ability to read this value
may assist in customer support issues.
Example: Read the firmware version
Binary
Hex

3.5 Resetting the Camera

This is the only other "write" command that is not followed by a data byte. This
command resets all clock board registers to their default values (the values used at
power-up).
