− 7 −Communications Protocol[2] Communications FlowNote: ◦Start the transmission of the next data afterconfirming the response command.◦The maximum transmission interval of thevarious byte data is 500 [msec]. If this isexceeded, a communication error is detectedin the camera unit, the receiving data isdeleted, and data from the header is waitingto be received again. Furthermore, there areno special regulations regarding the minimumvalue.◦All the commands can be acquired after theperiods below after start-up.MD600(P), MD500(P): 6 secondsMD800(P), MD700(P): 9 secondsWhen auto pixel defect compensation is set toON, below period will be added to above atthe longest.MD600(P), MD500(P): 15secondsMD800(P), MD700(P): 20secondsIn factory default, Auto pixel defectcompensation is set to OFF at start-up.1 During Settings CommandTransmissionSource TransmissionDestination (Unit)HeaderMessage 1Message 2ChecksumTerminatorResponse CommandSettings CommandTransmissionsRepeats the bytecount and the messageand response commu-nications in responseto the contents of themessage.2 During Query Command (Other than ACK)Response Command(NACK/ERR)Query CommandTransmissionsRepeats the bytecount and the messageand response commu-nications in responseto the contents of themessage.TransmissionSource TransmissionDestination (Unit)HeaderMessage 1Message 2ChecksumTerminator3 During Query Command (ACK)Response Command(ACK)HeaderMessage 1Message 2ChecksumTerminatorQuery CommandTransmissionsQuery CommandResponseTransmissionSource TransmissionDestination (Unit)HeaderMessage 1Message 2ChecksumTerminatorRepeats the bytecount and the messageand response commu-nications in responseto the contents of themessage.Repeats the bytecount and the messageand response commu-nications in responseto the contents of themessage.
