4.2.8 Bitrate Command
Purpose: To set the bitrate of the serial communications link. The bitrate is changed immediately after
the successful receipt of this command. (The default bitrate is 9600.)
Type: This is a write only command.
Write Command: Cmd-ID R/W-Flag Data Length Data
0x44 0 4 4 Bytes
Response: None
Data Format: Byte 1 An ID that specifies the bitrate (see table below).
Byte 2 undefined - always write 0x00
Byte 3 undefined - always write 0x00
Byte 4 undefined - always write 0x00
ID Bitrate
0x12 4800
0x13 9600
0x14 14400
0x15 19200
0x17 38400
0x19 57600
0x1A 76800
0x1B 115200
When changing the bitrate for serial communication, use the following procedure:
1. Issue the write command with the new bitrate.
2. Wait one second.
3. Change the bitrate on the serial port that the camera is using:
a) If you are using a Camera Link frame grabber, change the bit rate on the
frame grabber’s RS-644 serial port.
b) If you are using the camera with a k-BIC, change the bit rate on your PC’s
RS-232 serial port.
4. Restart the PC and the camera.
5. Resume communication.
Note: The RS-644 serial port on some Camera Link frame grabbers will only support
a bitrate of 9600. If you are using a Camera Link frame grabber, check the grabber’s
documentation before attempting to change the bitrate.
