4.12 Configuration Interface (CameraLink
®
A CameraLink camera can be controlled by the user via a RS232 compatible asynchronous
serial interface. This interface is contained within the CameraLink
4.46 and is physically not directly accessible. Instead, the serial communication is usually routed
through the frame grabber. For some frame grabbers it might be necessary to connect a serial
cable from the frame grabber to the serial interface of the PC.
