MIC412TI and MIC412TF Camera Installation and Operation Manual
Capture in ASCII
This changes the way in which the data is displayed. If not checked then the data is displayed in comma separated Hex bytes (e.g. 54, 45, 53, 54), if it is checked then each byte is converted into its corresponding ASCII char (e.g. TEST). However this only works if the protocol sends out valid ASCII bytes, all other values, less than 32 and over 127 will result in a "?" being printed.
Assume New Message after 50mS
This is a way of separating out consecutive commands and individually time stamping them. If there is a 50mS gap between transmitted or received bytes then the next byte is taken as a new message.
Time Stamp Data
If checked then each new packet will be titled with the date and time of transmission or reception, otherwise the data will just be indicated with a Transmit or Receive tag.
Clear Comms
This simply clears the current communications window.
Save Data to File
This will prompt the user for a file location where the comms can be saved. They will be output as a ".doc" file formatted in the same way as display in the window, which can be opened in Microsoft Word.

Send Direct Command
This feature enables the user specify an exact command in Hex bytes to send to the MIC. The long input box is used to enter the command in individual comma separated Hex bytes, without the header or CS.
For example a complete Learn Preset 1 command in FV protocol is: 0A 30 31 30 41 36 4D 30 31 80
The header on this is: 0A 30 31 30 41 36
and the checksum: 80
So to transmit the same command the input box should read: 4D,30,31
Any variation on this will cause an error to be flagged indicating why the command is wrong. Once written the command is sent using the Send Now command.
