VISCA / RS-232C Command
Use of RS-232C control software which has been developed based upon this command listmay cause malfunction or damage to hardware and software. Sony Corporation is not liable forany such damage.
Overview of VISCA
In VISCA, the device outputting commands, for example, a computer, is called the controller.The device receiving the commands, such as SNC-RZ50N/P is called the peripheral devices.The VISCA communication conforms to the RS232 standard.
The parameters of RS-232C are as follows:- Communication speed : 9600bps / 38400bps- Data bits : 8bit- Start bit: 1bit- Stop bit: 1bit- parity: noneFlow control using XON/XOFF and RTS/CTS, etc., is not supported.
In VISCA, the peripheral device can be daisy-chained.In SNC-RZ50N/P, the controller and the peripheral device must be used in pairs because the hardware of SNC-RZ50N/P doesn't support the daisy-chain connection.
VISCA Communication Specifications
The packet structure of VISCA
The basic unit of VISCA communication is called a packet(cf. Figure1).The first byte of the packet is called the header and comprises the sender's and receiver's addresses.For example, the header of the packet sent to SNC-RZ50N/P assigned address 1 from the controller(address 0) is hexadecimal 81H.Only 81H is used as the header of packet of SNC-RZ50N/P because the hardware of SNC-RZ50N/Pdoesn't support the daisy-chain connection.The header of the reply packet from the camera assigned address 1 is 90H.When the terminator is FFH, it signifies the end of the packet.

Command and Inquiry
CommandSends operational commands to SNC-RZ50N/P.
InquiryUsed for inquiring about the current state of SNC-RZ50N/P.

Responses for commands and inquiries
ACK messageReturned by SNC-RZ50N/P when it receives a command.No Ack message is returned for inquiries.
Completion messageReturned by SNC-RZ50N/P when execution of commands or inquiries is completed.In the case of inquiry commands, it will contain reply data for the inquiry after the 3rd byte of thepacket. If the ACK message is omitted, the socket number will contain 0.
Reply Packet NoteAck 90 4Y FF Y = socket numberCompletion (commands) 90 5Y FF Y = socket numberCompletion (Inquiries) 90 5Y ... FF Y = socket number
Error messageWhen a command or inquiry command could not be executed or failed, an error message is returnedinstead of the completion message.
Error Packet Description90 6Y 01 FF Message length error (> 14 bytes)90 6Y 02 FF Syntax Error90 6Y 04 FF Command canceled90 6Y 05 FF No socket (to be canceled)90 6Y 41 FF Command not executable Note : Y = socket number
Socket number
When command messages are sent to SNC-RZ50N/P, it is recommended to send the next commandmessage after waiting for the completion message or error message to return.SNC-RZ50N/P has two buffers for commands. When SNC-RZ50N/P receives a command, it notifiesthe sender which command buffer was used using the socket number of the ACK message.
Command execution cancel
To cancel a command which has already been sent, send the Cancel command as the next command.
Cancel Packet NoteCancel 81 2Y FF Y = socket number
The Command canceled error message will be returned for this command, but this is not a fault.It indicates that the command has been canceled.
VISCA Device Setting Command
For VISCA network administration
AddressSets an address of a peripheral device. Used in VISCA peripheral device when initializing thenetwork. Unused in SNC-RZ50N/P because the address of SNC-RZ50N/P is always "1".
Packet NoteAddress 88 30 01 FF Always broadcasted.
IF_ClearClears the command buffers in VISCA peripheral device and cancels the command currently beingexecuted. Unused in SNC-RZ50N/P.

ACK/Completion Messages
Command Message Comments
ACK 90 4y FF (y: Socket number) Returned when the command is accepted.
Completion 90 5y FF (y : Socket number) Returned when the command has been executed.
Error Messages
Command Message Comments
Syntax Error 90 60 02 FF Returned when the command format is different or when acommand with illegal command parameters is accepted.
Command 90 6y 04 FF Returned when a command which is being executed in a socket Canceled (y: Socket number) specified by the cancel command is canceled. The completion
message for the command is not returned.
No Socket 90 6y 05 FF Returned when no command is executed in a socket specified (y: Socket number) by the cancel command, or when an invalid socket number
is specified.
Command 90 6y 41 FF Returned when a command cannot be executed due to current Not (y: Socket number) conditions. For example, when commands controling the focus Executable manually are received during auto focus.

Title Setting
* Notices on the SNC-RZ50N/P VISCA
In SNC-RZ50N/P, in order to enable camera control via Ethernet, there are notes, such as restriction, about the VISCA communication using the external serial port.Taking following notices, use serial communication.
1) Non-supported daisy-chain connectionThe address of SNC-RZ50N/P is always "1" because SNC-RZ50N/P doesn't supportdaisy-chain connection though the peripheral device of VISCA supports it.
2) Congestion controlThe congestion(throwing away the packet) is performed when SNC-RZ50N/P receives somany camera control parameters of Pan, Tilt and so on via Ethernet or external serial portfrequently. Don't send next command until the completion of prior command is notified afterprior command transmission.
3) Transmission of non-supported command and the parameter out of the permissible limitsIn the SNC-RZ50N/P VISCA function, when the wrong command, the non-supportedcommand, the parameter out of the permissible limits and so on are transmitted, the packetmay be thrown away. Be sure to send only the command which is currently supported.
