  • Page 15 Basic Functions Address Set VISCA is a protocol, which supports a daisy chain of up to seven connected cameras via RS-232 interface. In such cases, the address set command can be used to assign addresses from 1 to 7 to each of the seven cameras, allowing you to control the seven cameras with the same personal computer. Be sure to use the address set command to set the address whenever a camera is connected for the first time. Memory (Preset) Using the preset function, 16 sets of camera shooting conditions can be stored and recalled. This function allows you to achieve the desired status instantly, even without adjusting the following items each time. • Pan/Tilt Position • Zoom Position • Digital Zoom On/Off • Focus Auto/Manual • Focus Position • AE Mode • Shutter control parameters • Bright Control • Iris control parameters • Gain control parameters • Exposure Compensation On/Off • Exposure Level • Backlight Compensation On/Off • Auto Slow Shutter On/Off • White Balance Mode • R/B Gain • Aperture Control • WD Parameter • Defog On/Off The settings stored using this function are recalled when the power is turned on.

Overview of VISCA Fig. 1 VISCA daisy chain connection In VISCA, the device outputting the commands, for example, a computer, is called the controller, while the VISCA Controller VISCA Equipment device receiving the commands, such as this unit, is called the peripheral device. In VISCA, up to seven peripheral devices can be connected to one controller using communication conforming to the RS- 232 standard. The parameters of RS-232 are as follows. • Communication speed: 9600 bps/38400 bps • Data bits : 8 • Start bit : 1 • Stop bit : 1 • Non parity Flow control using XON/XOFF and RTS/CTS, etc., is not supported. Peripheral devices are connected in a daisy chain. As shown in Fig. 1, the actual internal connection is a one- direction ring, so that messages return to the controller via the peripheral devices. The device address is assigned to each device on the network. The address of the controller is fixed at 0...............................................

  • Page 23: Visca Communication Specifications

    Command List VISCA Communication Specifications VISCA packet structure The basic unit of VISCA communication is called a packet (Fig. 2). The first byte of the packet is called the header and comprises the sender’s and receiver’s addresses. For example, the header of the packet sent to the SRG assigned address 1 from the controller (address 0) is 81h in hexadecimal. The packet sent to the SRG assigned address 2 is 82h. In the command list, as the header is 8X, input the address of the SRG to X. The header of the reply packet from the SRG assigned address 1 is 90h. The packet from the SRG assigned address 2 is A0h. Some of the setting commands for SRG can be sent to all devices at one time (broadcast)*. In the case of broadcast, the header should be 88h in hexadecimal. When the terminator is FFh, it signifies the end of the packet. * The broadcast function is not available for VISCA over IP.
