Mode
Select the port through which you send and receive data via the network: HTTP (HTTP Generic Driver) or TCP (TCP Generic Driver), or select if the camera is controlled using the VISCA protocol.
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]”.
VISCA: When you select VISCA, you can control the camera using the VISCA protocol.
For the command list of the VISCA protocol, consult your authorized Sony dealer.
