16.1. RS-232C Communication Specifications

The Digital Video Recorder’s RS-232C interface permits remote control using a connected PC.

Note

Control software is not supplied as standard.

Communication specifications are those set when the Switcher Synchronization selection on the Communication Setting Screen is set to "OFF."

TOA takes no responsibility for any inconvenience or damage to customer hardware or software which may result from the use of control software based on the specifications described in this section.

16.1.1. The Rules of Overall Communications

1.All communications are established by means of a command from the controller.

2.Responses are always present in mutual communications.

3.The response timeout period is 1 second, and the timeout period between continuous data is 100 milliseconds. When the timeout occurs, the corresponding communications are regarded as failed.

4.Data is only updated when a communication setting content update command is received while in Standby mode or in Idle and Recording Pause mode. No setting content update commands are accepted during system activation, error message indication, menu screen display, search screen display, playback, recording (Include Alarm Recording Setting’s Alarm is set to “VALID.”) or while in timer mode (DEL is returned).

5.When command operation cannot be performed, received data is discarded and any commands are regarded as invalid.
