Configuring the CameraBasler sprint Mono Cameras 187Serial Communication CSRAn RS-644 serial connection is integrated into the Camera Link interface between the framegrabber installed in your computer and the camera. The serial connection is used to issuecommands to the camera for changing modes and parameters. You can use the serialcommunication CSR to set the bitrate for the camera’s RS-644 serial port.The default setting is 9600 bps.The setting is changed immediately after the successful receipt of this command.Register Base Address: 0x0D00Field Name: Register Status Offset: 0x0000 Size: 1 Byte Type: Read onlyDescription: The integer value in this field indicates the status of this control and status register:0x00 = The register is not available0x01 = The register is available and all related settings are OK0x80 = A value in the register is set out of rangeField Name: Bitrate Offset: 0x0001 Size: 1 Byte Type: Read/WriteDescription: Writing an integer to this field sets the bit rate:0x0F = 9600 bps (default)0x11 = 19200 bps0x12 = 38400 bps0x13 = 57600 bps0x14 = 115200 bpsSee Section 2.9.1 on page 37 and Section 7.3 on page 196 for more information about serialcommunication.NoteWhen changing a setting for serial communication, use the followingprocedure:1. Issue the write command with the new setting.2. Wait one second.3. Change the setting on the frame grabber’s RS-644 serial port.4. Resume communication.The RS-644 serial port on some Camera Link frame grabbers will only supporta bitrate of 9600. If you are using a Camera Link frame grabber, check thegrabber’s documentation before attempting to change the bitrate.At reset or power off/on, the camera returns to the 9600 bps setting.
