Serial Interface (RS232) of the GigE uEye HE

Cameras of the GigE uEye HE series are equipped with a serial interface (RS232). It provides functionality for communication with peripheral devices (e.g. lighting controller, lens controller) or the serial port of a PC. Before you can send data through the camera's serial interface, one or more virtual COM ports have to be defined on the PC. Once defined, they can be used for data communication with appropriate software just like any physical COM port.

To set up and use the serial interface, the Additional functions dialog box is provided in the uEye Camera Manager. For the serial interface specifications, please refer to the Serial Interface (RS232) chapter.
