Notes on Using Alternatives to HyperTerminal
If you are using interfaces other than HyperTerminal, the ASCII character, ESC, is
decimal 27 and needs to be issued. From the command line insert ESC by using
ALT+2+7 of the activated Num-Pad. In some cases this needs to be followed by a
carriage return or a linefeed to send this to the camera.
In ASCII the ESC character may look like this:
“←”
.
The camera responds to a simple ASCII-based protocol. A carriage return <CR> ends each
command.
Example: to return the current detector settings
gcp <CR>
A complete list of the available detector commands, their format and parameters can be
displayed by sending the help (
h
) command.
