Communicating Data via Serial Port

— Serial setting Page

When you click Serial on the Administrator menu, the Serial setting page appears.

Use this page to set up for the date communication via the serial interface. You can input data from a computer via the network to the camera, and output it to an external serial interface for controlling a peripheral device, or, vice versa, input data from a peripheral device to the camera via the external serial interface and output it to the computer via the network.

Perform the setting to match the peripheral device you connect to the camera.

Standard

Select the serial standard used to connect a peripheral device via the serial interface: RS232C or RS485.

Note

If RS485 is selected on the Standard menu, the data communication is semi-duplex. Connect a peripheral device supporting semi-duplex communication.

Transparency type

Select the port through which you send and receive data via the network: HTTP (HTTP Generic Driver) or TCP (TCP Generic Driver).

HTTP: When you select HTTP, you can realize data communication by creating an HTML program with CGI commands embedded in the computer.

For the CGI commands, consult your authorized Sony dealer.

TCP: When you select TCP, specify the TCP port number on the TCP Port No. menu, and you can send and receive data that is input to or output from the external serial communication port. You can check the connection to the camera using a DOS command “telnet [host name] [assigned port number]”.

TCP port No.

When you select TCP on the Transparency type menu, type the port number for the TCP port (TCP Generic Driver). Set a port number other than Well-Known port numbers (0 to 1023).

Baud rate

Select the communication baud rate for the peripheral device connected to the serial interface. You can select from among the following baud rates:

38400, 19200, 9600, 4800, 2400, 1200, 600, 300 (bps)

Parity bit

Select the parity bit for the peripheral device connected to the serial interface: None, Odd or Even.

Character length

Select the character length for the peripheral device connected to the serial interface: 7 or 8 (bits).

Stop bits

Select the stop bit for the peripheral device connected to the serial interface: 1 or 2 (bits).

OK/Cancel

See “Buttons common to every setting page” on page 16.
