GROUP
A camera can also be identified as a member of a GROUP of devices. (For example, a group "3DRIG_A"
could include two cameras "CAM_A_L" and "CAM_A_R"). The default group is named "DEFAULT".
Group names (like camera Names) can be used to uniquely address commands to a specific group of
networked cameras. Note: the group name is limited to 8 characters, default name is DEFAULT.
TARGET
Using TARGET the user can specify if this camera can send commands to ALL devices on the network,
to NONE of the devices on the network (meaning the camera will only listen to messages and not
originate messages) or to a specific TARGET device - which can either be the NAME of a specific
camera or device or a name of a GROUP of cameras or devices.
This structure allows for a lot of flexibility. For example on a multi-rig 3D shoot the user can either send
commands to an individual camera (e.g. Set CAM_A_L to 1/48th exposure), to a group of cameras (e.g.
Set "3DRIG_A" to 48 FPS), or to all cameras (e.g. Start Recording on all cameras). It is important to note
that with the exception of the NONE setting, all command filtering is happening on the receiver side of
the communication link.
SERIAL PROTOCOL
The camera can communicate to external devices via RS232 Serial Port and / or the Gigabit Ethernet
Port.
This selection allows the user to specify the serial communications PROTOCOL. Available options are
NONE, ELEMENT TECHNICA, 3ALITY SPC 7100 and 3ALITY SPC 7000. Default is NONE.
