Environment Setup

Change the USB Bulk Transfer Rate

USB Bulk Transfer Rate should be changed to 150. The way to set it depends on the OS.

This value represents the maximum data size of USB bulk transmission and should be larger than the
file size transferred from cameras to the host. (Unit is [MB].)

If you need to adjust memory size adequately, you should set this value to the maximum file size of
your camera model.

Raspberry Pi OS
Open /etc/rc.local with an editor.

Add the command below at the end of the file before "exit 0" to modify Bulk Transfer Rate
configuration file.

Add this command:

sudo sh -c 'echo 150 > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/usbfs_memory_mb'

Save & Close the file and reboot. Make sure that “150” is written in the configuration file.

$ cat /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/usbfs_memory_mb

 Camera Remote SDK

Camera body settings for USB connection

When connecting the SDK to the camera via a USB cable, the following settings must be made on the
camera itself.

ILCE-1 and DSC-RX0M2 is used as an example here. For other models, refer to "PC Remote
Function" in the Help Guide.

For ILCE-1
- Please set “Network > Transfer/Remote > PC Remote Function > PC Remote” to “On”.

- The default setting of “Network > Transfer/Remote > PC Remote Function > PC Remote Cnct
Method” is “USB”, but if other than “USB” is set, change it to “USB”.

For DSC-RX0M2
- Please set “Setup > USB Connection” to “PC Remote”.

Install the libusbK driver on Windows

If you want to connect via USB on Windows, you need to install the libusbK driver.

Please refer to "0. Preparation-> Installation of libusbK" page of RemoteSampleApp_IM_vx.xx.xx.pdf.

16
 Camera Remote SDK

Camera body settings for wired LAN connection

When connecting the SDK to the camera via a wired LAN, the following settings must be made on the
camera itself.

ILCE-1 is used as an example here. For other models, refer to "PC Remote Function" in the Help
Guide.

- Please set “Network > Transfer/Remote > PC Remote Function > PC Remote” to “On”.
- The default setting for “Network > Transfer/Remote > PC Remote Function > PC Remote Cnct
Method” is “USB”. Please change it to “Wired LAN”.
After enabling the wired LAN connection, it takes about 30 seconds for the SDK to recognize the
camera.
When connecting via wired LAN, you need to perform the " Network > Transfer/Remote > PC
Remote Function > Pairing" operation on the camera to make it memorize the host PC. Once the
pairing is established, turn off the camera, pause for about 10 seconds, and then turn it back on
again. (The information is stored in the camera when the power is turned off.)
- You can also connect without “Network > Transfer/Remote > PC Remote Function > Pairing”.
Connections without "Pairing" are possible by setting "Connect without Pairing" to "Enable".
If you set "Connect without Pairing" to "Enable", unintended third parties may access the camera.
Sony is not liable for any problems or damage caused by setting "Connect without Pairing" to
"Enable".

17
 Camera Remote SDK

IP Address Setting

- The default setting for “Network > Wired LAN > IP Address Setting > IP Address Setting” is “Auto”. If
the camera is connecting to a router with a DHCP service, set the setting to "Auto" to automatically
assign an IP address. If you want to use a network HUB or connect directly to the host PC, change
the setting to "Manual" and set the IP address manually.
- " Network > Wired LAN > IP Address Setting > IP Address Setting > Auto" can also be used when
the camera is not connected to a router or similar. In this case, the IP address is determined by the
camera itself. The host PC should set its IP address based on the one determined by the camera.

For the combination of connection type and ”IP address setting”, please use the following table to
help.

Set "Allow incoming connections" for the applications
*3 Set the network setting to "Link Local Only"
*4 Set the network setting to "Automatic (DHCP)"

Camera Remote SDK uses the following ports for such as searching the connected cameras.
If Firewall is ON, the camera may not be recognized. Try one of the followings:
- Register your application which using Camera Remote SDK as an exception to Firewall.
- Change the configuration of the ports as follows to enable communications.
Remote port
UDP port: 1900, 32768 - 61000
TCP port: 80, 8080, 22, 64321, 15740
Local port
UDP port: 1900, 49152 - 65535
TCP port: 49152 - 65535
Also because of the above, please note that there is a possibility security software makes Warning if
your application has no digital signature.

Pairing

- First, select “Network > Transfer/Remote > PC Remote Function > Pairing” to display the pairing
standby. Then call the Connect() function from your application.
Then, the camera will change to the pairing confirmation screen. Select OK.

- Decide a User name and Password

In the “User Name” and “Input Password” fields, enter the User name and Password used to
connect to the host device (PC, smartphone, tablet, etc.).
Please refer to each help guide and check if necessary.
- Fingerprint confirmation
When remote operating a camera that requires SSH authentication, make sure that the user has a
correct fingerprint before allowing the connection. You can see the fingerprint generated by the
camera body in Show Settings> Fingerprint.

MENU > Network > Wired LAN

- Please set “Setting” to “On”.

- Please set “Cam. Remote Ctrl” to “Enable”.

MENU > Network > Wired LAN > Detail Settings

- The default setting for “DHCP” is “On”. If the camera is connecting to a router with a DHCP service,
set the setting to "On" to automatically assign an IP address. If you want to use a network HUB or
connect directly to the host PC, change the setting to "Off" and set the IP address manually.
- Refer to the table of MENU> Network> Wired LAN> IP Address Setting on the previous page for the
combination of router use and hub use and DHCP setting. Replace "Auto" with "On" and "Manual"
with "Off" to read.
- The following TCP ports are used for communication with cameras that require SSH authentication.

Remote port Local port Description

Operational Flow and Sequences

This section describes the basic operational flow of Camera Remote SDK.

At the beginning of all camera operations, Init() must be called to initialize Camera Remote SDK, and
at the end of the operation, Release() must be called to release all resources.

EnumCameraObjects() enumerates connected cameras that can be connected with this Camera
Camera Remote SDK Architecture Concept model

Initialize

Enumerate camera

Connect

Get Properties
Send Command Camera
Program Camera
Get Live view Image Remote SDK

Call back functions

Disconnect

Release

Remote SDK. The ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo object has the list of valid camera objects.

ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo::GetCameraObjectInfo(CrInt32 index) returns ICrCameraObjectInfo

specified by the parameter “index”. With the ICrCameraObjectInfo object, call the Connect() method
to connect to the camera. Note that before calling Connect(), the IDeviceCallback function object
needs to be prepared. The callback functions notify the status changes of the camera and the
connection. When the connection established, OnConnected() is called. When the connection is
disconnected, OnDisconnected() is called. When the camera status is changed, some other callback
functions are called depending on the camera status, or warning / error messages are notified by the
callback functions.

Connect() returns a CrDeviceHandle. The device handle is always used to operate the camera, for
example to get or change properties, to capture image, to get live view images and so on. But just
calling Connect() and receiving no error is not enough to know the timing the device is connected, and
if the handle is validated. After the OnConnected() callback is called, the connection is established
successfully, and the device handle is valid.

After using the camera, by calling the Disconnect() method with the device handle, the disconnect
process starts. Similar to the Connect() method, when the OnDisconnected() callback function is
called, the connection is disconnected successfully. You can call ReleaseDevice() after you receive
the OnDisconnected() call-back.

NOTE:

In this Camera Remote SDK, only one camera connection is guaranteed at the same time.

36
 Camera Remote SDK

Initialize and Release Camera Remote SDK

To initialize Camera Remote SDK, call SCRSDK::Init(0).

Init() needs one parameter, which must be zero.

In case of a memory allocation error or another fatal error, it returns false.

Example:

bool Init() {

bool ret = SCRSDK::Init(0);

if (!ret) {

// code to handle the error

return false;

To terminate Camera Remote SDK, call SCRSDK::Release(). This function terminates all
connections and releases the allocating resources. Note that the Release() function waits for the
completion of the data transfer to be executed. When transferring huge amounts of data between the
pc and the camera, this Release() function waits for the completion of the transfer. It is strongly
recommended to call this method after confirming the disconnection of each device.

Example:

void Terminate() {

SCRSDK::Release();

Currently, Release() always returns true.

37
 Camera Remote SDK

Enumerate Cameras
EnumCameraObjects() enumerates all connectable cameras that are physically connected to the PC.
Returned ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo has the list of the cameras. The ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo
object is created in Camera Remote SDK, if no camera is found, the returned pEnum is NULL.

The member function GetCount() of ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo returns the number of the

discovered cameras and GetCameraObject(index) returns the ICrCameraObjectInfo object specified
by the index parameter. Information of the discovered camera can be acquired through the object.
The information varies depending on the connecting method. Connecting by USB allows you to
acquire various information values (camera model name, product id, USB serial number, etc.).

To release ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo object, use the Release() function of the object.

Example:

void Enumerate() {

CrError err = SCRSDK::EnumCameraObjects(&pEnum);

if (pEnum == NULL) {

// no cameras found

return;

CrInt32u cntOfCamera = pEnum->GetCount(); // get number of cameras

for (CrInt32u n = 0; n < cntOfCamera; n++) {

ICrCameraObjectInfo *pobj = pEnum->GetCameraObjectInfo(n);

// get connected camera information

pEnum->Release(); // use Release() function of ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo

This enumeration function makes the list of “connectable” cameras. A Sony camera, which does not
have PC remote control features or is not compatible with this Camera Remote SDK, is not listed.
Refer to the supported model list of this Camera Remote SDK.

Note that ICrCameraObjectInfo *pobj in the sample code is the object owned by
ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo. It means calling ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo::Release() frees the memory
of ICrCameraObjectInfo that you get from the enumerator. It can no longer be accessed.

38
 Camera Remote SDK

Create a “Camera Object” with information known in advance

If the camera to be connected is determined in advance, you can create a “Camera object” with the
specified information and use it as a parameter of Connect() without using EnumCameraObjects() of
camera search function.

Use CreateCameraObjectInfoUSBConnection() for a USB connection and

CreateCameraObjectInfoEthernetConnection() for an Ethernet connection.
The reason why we have prepared for USB connection and Ethernet connection respectively is that
the required conditions differ depending on the connection method.

CreateCameraObjectInfoUSBConnection() has three parameters. The second parameter specifies

the model of the camera to connect to, and the third parameter specifies the serial number of the
camera to connect to. The camera object pointer created by this condition is returned with the first
parameter ICrCameraObjectInfo **.
You can check the serial number of the camera by the following method.

- Windows
1. Connect the camera to the host PC with a USB cable and display [Device Manager]
2. Display the properties of the target camera in [Device Manager]
3. On the [Details] tab, select “Device Instance path” from the [Property] pull-down list.

Area marked in red : USB serial number

39
 Camera Remote SDK

- Linux/RaspPi
1. Connect the camera to the host PC with a USB cable and display the terminal
2. Execute the lsusb command with the v option to see information about the various USB devices.

Area marked in red : iSerial

- macOS
1. Connect the camera to the host PC with a USB cable and display the terminal
2. Execute the system_profiler command with the SPUSBDataType to see information about the
various USB devices.

 Camera Remote SDK

Example:

void CreateUSBObject() {

CrChar serialNum[(SCRSDK::USB_SERIAL_LENGTH + 1] = {0}; // +1 is Null-terminate

memcpy(serialNum, L"CFB7A03380EF", sizeof(serialNum)); // wide char on Windows

SCRSDK::ICrCameraObjectInfo* pCam = nullptr;

CrError err = SCRSDK::CreateCameraObjectInfoUSBConnection(

&pCam,
SCRSDK::CrCameraDeviceModel_ILCE_9M2,
(CrInt8u*)serialNum);

if (CrError_None == err && pCam != NULL) {

// connect to camera

41
 Camera Remote SDK

CreateCameraObjectInfoEthernetConnection() has five parameters. The second parameter specifies the

model type of the camera to connect to, the third parameter specifies the IP Address of the camera to
connect to, and the fourth parameter specifies the MAC address. Check the MAC address with the
camera. Fifth parameter specifies the SSH authentication enable flag. The camera object pointer
created by these conditions is returned with the first parameter ICrCameraObjectInfo **.

You can check the MAC address of the camera by the following method.

MENU > Network > Wired LAN > Display Wired LAN Info.

For ILME-FX6, it is the MAC address of the Wi-Fi adapter

MENU > Network > Wireless LAN > MAC Address

Example:

void CreateEthernetObject() {

CrInt32 ipAddr = 0x0500A8C0; // 192.168.0.5

CrInt8u macAddr[6] = {0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06};

SCRSDK::ICrCameraObjectInfo* pCam = nullptr;

CrError err = SCRSDK::CreateCameraObjectInfoEthernetConnection(

&pCam,
SCRSDK::CrCameraDeviceModel_ILCE_9M2,
ipAddr,
macAddr,
SCRSDK::CrSSHsupport_OFF);

if (CrError_None == err && pCam != NULL) {

// connect to camera

If a “ICrCameraObjectInfo” created with incorrect information is used in Connect(), the SDK operation
is not guaranteed.

42
 Camera Remote SDK

Connect a Camera
Using one of the enumerated ICrCameraObjectInfo, the camera can be connected with Camera
Remote SDK by calling the Connect() function of the class. This function has five parameters. The
first parameter ICrCameraObjectInfo * specifies the camera to connect to. The second parameter
IDeviceCallback is a function object that is called back to notify the communication events from
Camera Remote SDK. The caller must create the object instance before calling the Connect()
function. The third parameter CrDeviceHandle * is returned with the connection handle from SDK and
it must be set NULL before calling the Connect() function. The fourth parameter CrSdkControlMode is
optional. To control the camera remotely, do not specify this parameter, or specify Remote Control
Mode. Specify ContentsTransferMode to pull the content on the media inserted in the slot of the
camera. The fifth parameter CrReconnectingSet is optional. You can specify whether to automatically
reconnect after the connection with the camera is unintentionally lost. If not specified, the default is
CrReconnecting_ON and automatic reconnection is performed. However, CrReconnecting_ON is
valid only in RemoteControlMode. In the ContentsTransferMode, automatic reconnection is not
performed regardless of the fifth parameter setting. The 6th to 9th parameters are all for SSH
authentication. These parameters are not needed for cameras that do not require SSH authentication.
Check “Supporting physical layer” to see if SSH authentication is required.

After the Connect() function, ICrCameraObjectInfo can be freed. There is no need to wait for
OnConnected() or the OnError() callback function. It means you can delete the
ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo object returned from the EnumCameraObjects() function.

Example:

class MyDeviceCallback : public IDeviceCallback {

void OnConnected(DeviceConnectionVersion version) {

DeviceConnectionVersion ver = version;

// Program can use the device handle.

};

bool ConnectCamera(ICrCameraObjectInfo *pcamera) {

MyDeviceCallback *cb = new MyDeviceCallback();

CrDeviceHandle hDev = NULL;

CrError err = SCRSDK::Connect(pcamera, cb, &hDev);

The following is an example of a ContentsTransferMode connection.

Example:

CrError err = SCRSDK::Connect(pcamera,cb,&hDev,CrSdkControlMode_ContentsTransfer);

Switching between RemoteControlMode, ContentsTransferMode, and CrReconnectingSet cannot be

performed while connected. After disconnecting in each mode, reconnect in the desired mode.

43
 Camera Remote SDK

The following is an example of connecting to an SSH certified camera.

For SSH authentication, you need to get the data for the 8th parameter and 9th parameter of
Connect() in advance with GetFingerprint(). The user needs to check that the fingerprint data obtained
from the camera is correct. If fingerprint data different from the fingerprint data owned by the camera
is returned by the GetFingerprint(), please do not proceed to Connect().
If you do not check whether the fingerprint data obtained by Get Fingerprint() is legitimate and specify
incorrect fingerprint data in Connect(), the security of the host PC is not guaranteed.
For the 6th parameter userId and the 7th parameter userPassword, use the information set in the
camera body.

Example:

CrInt32u fpLen = 0;

char fpBuff[128] = { 0 };

CrError err = SCRSDK::GetFingerprint(pcamera, fpBuff, &fpLen);

if (CR_SUCCEEDED(err)) {

// If the acquired Fingerprint is correct, proceed to connection

...

err = SCRSDK::Connect(pcamera,cb,&hDev,CrSdkControlMode_Remote,CrReconnecting_ON,

“admin”, “12345678”, fpBuff, fpLen);

...

44
 Camera Remote SDK

As described at the top of this section, the connection process is executed asynchronously. Calling
the Connect() function means that just the connection process is started. When the connection is
established, the OnConnected() callback of IDeviceCallback is called.

User Camera Remote SDK

Connect()
Launch Connection thread

Camera

OnConnected()
or OnError()

The left vertical line indicates the user thread of your program, the center vertical line indicates API of
Camera Remote SDK, and the right vertical line indicates the camera connection thread inside
Camera Remote SDK.

Connect() returns an error when the function parameter is not valid. In the synchronous process in
the Connect() function, it does not check for the device existence or the connectivity. It is checked in
the Connection thread. If the camera is not found or if the camera is not compatible with the Camera
Remote SDK, the OnError() callback function is called with an error id, CrError_Connect_Connect.

If the connection is established, the OnConnected() callback function is called with a parameter for
connecting Remote Control Protocol Version.

In this Camera Remote SDK version, the parameter’s value below is fixed.

Device_Connection_Version_RCP3 = 300

Because this version’s Camera Remote SDK supports only the Remote-Control Protocol Version 3.

The camera may not accept shooting operations immediately connection.

45
 Camera Remote SDK

Disconnect a Camera
Call the Disconnect() function to disconnect the camera. The function needs one parameter for the
DeviceHandle to disconnect.

Example:

void Disconnect(CrDeviceHandle handle) {

SCRSDK::Disconnect(handle);

If the handle is not valid, Disconnect() returns an error.

Disconnect() is also an asynchronous process. The return from Disconnect() does not mean that the
camera has been disconnected. At the time of the OnDisconnected() callback function is called, the
camera has been disconnected from the Camera Remote SDK.

See the table on the next page for the connection status of the camera and Camera Remote SDK.

Connect/Disconnect multiple cameras

To control multiple cameras, call the Connect() function for the number of cameras and get a
handle for the number of cameras.
With each handle you get, you can control each camera.

Points to note when connecting USB

- Pay attention to the maximum power supply of the USB bus controller and the power
consumption required by the camera

- When using multiple cameras at the same time, it is recommended to turn off the USB
power supply setting on the cameras.
“USB Power Supply” menu varies by model. Please refer to the help guide for your
model.

- Multiple connection requires more CPU loads than single connection, and there is a
possibility to cause delays in getting and updating properties. If you do not need to
display LiveViewImage from all cameras at the same time, it is recommended to
disable LiveViewImage acquisition to reduce the processing load by using
SetDeviceSetting.

 Camera Remote SDK

Get the Camera Properties

After the connection is established, camera property can be acquired by the GetDeviceProperties()
function. This function has three parameters. The first one is the device handle that specifies the
device, the second one is the pointer to CrDeviceProperty pointer that receives the acquired property
list, and the third one receives the size of the CrDeviceProperty list.

The CrDeviceProperty returned from GetDeviceProperties() is allocated in Camera Remote SDK and
the memory MUST be freed by calling ReleaseDeviceProperties() function.

Example:
void GetProperties(CrDeviceHandle handle) {
CrDeviceProperty *pProperties;
CrInt32u numofProperties = 0;
SCRSDK::GetDeviceProperties(handle, &pProperties, &numofProperties);
if (pProperties) { // the property list is received successfully
for (CrInt32u n = 0; n < numofProperties; n++) {
SCRSDK::CrDataType type = pProperties[n].GetValueType();
int dataLen = sizeof(CrInt64u); // Maximum length
if (type & SCRSDK::CrDataType_UInt8) {
dataLen = sizeof(CrInt8u);
} else if (type & SCRSDK::CrDataType_UInt16) {
dataLen = sizeof(CrInt16u);
:
}
int numofValue = pProperties[n].GetValueSize() / dataLen;
switch (pProperties[n].GetCode()) {
case CrDeviceProperty_FNumber:
// code to parse the properties...
:
}
SCRSDK::ReleaseDeviceProperties(handle, pProperties);

In the sample code above, for code simplification, the return value of GetDeviceProperties() is not
checked, but it has to be checked. If the camera has already disconnected, it returns
CrError_Invalid_Parameter. Additionally, in case of device property memory allocation error, it returns
CrError_Generic_Unknown.

The content of the property list depends on the camera features. It is not expected that all of the
properties are defined in enum of CrDevicePropertyCode in CrDeviceProperty.h. Some properties
defined in CrDevicePropertyCode will also be acquired by the GetLiveViewProperties() function as
described in the following section.

This function does not communicate with the camera. This function returns the copy of the latest
property list. The camera properties are updated automatically inside this Camera Remote SDK. In
case of one or other properties are changed, Camera Remote SDK calls OnPropertyChanged() and
more callback functions. Camera Remote SDK assumes that GetDeviceProperties() is called at the
beginning of the camera operation, and when Camera Remote SDK calls the OnPropertyChanged()
call back function. But calling the GetDeviceProperties() function in the OnPropertyChanged() or other
callback function is not recommended, because the callback function is called on the thread that
communicates with the camera. All callback functions are expected to return as soon as possible.

51
 Camera Remote SDK

The following sample code is one of the references to get updated properties and to update the user
interface items in Windows.

Example:
void MyDeviceCallback::OnConnected() {
::PostMessage(wnd, WM_APP_UPDATE_PROPERTIES, 0L, 0L);
}
void MyDeviceCallback::OnPropertyChanged() {
::PostMessage(wnd, WM_APP_UPDATE_PROPERTIES, 0L, 0L);
}

ON_MESSAGE(WM_APP_UPDATE_PROPERTIES, OnMessageUpdateProperties)

void CAppWnd::OnMessageUpdateProperties(WPARAM wp, LPARAM lp)

{
CrDeviceProperty *pProps;
CrInt32u numofProps = 0;
GetDeviceProperties(handle, &pProps, &numOfProps);
: // update user interface items

The following sample code is an example using the API and callback functions added from Version
1.05.00.
It is possible to call the GetSelectDeviceProperties() with the information notified in the
OnPropertyChangedCodes callback to get only the specified device properties.

Example:
void MyDeviceCallback:: OnPropertyChangedCodes(CrInt32u num, CrInt32u* codes) {
COPYDATASTRUCT cds;
cds.dwData = 0;
cds.lpData = codes;
cds.cbData = num * sizeof(CrInt32u);
::SendMessage(wnd, WM_APP_UPDATE_PROPERTIES_DIFF, num, &cds);
}

ON_MESSAGE(WM_APP_UPDATE_PROPERTIES_DIFF, OnMessageUpdateProperties2)

void CAppWnd::OnMessageUpdateProperties2(WPARAM wp, LPARAM lp)

{
CrDeviceProperty *pProps;
CrInt32u numofProps = 0;
GetSelectDeviceProperties(handle, wp, lp, &pProps, &numofProps);
: // update user interface items

 Camera Remote SDK

Get the Live View Properties

Some camera properties cannot be acquired by the GetDeviceProperties() function. The properties
that are defined in CrLiveViewPropertyCode are independent from the device property list, and must
use the GetLiveViewProperties() function, because those properties are strongly related to the live
view image.

The function interface and the usage are similar to GetDeviceProperties().

Similar to the device properties, the memory object returned from GetLiveViewProperties() must also
be freed by ReleaseLiveViewProperties().

Example:

void GetLiveViewProperties(CrDeviceHandle handle) {

CrLiveViewProperty *pProperties = NULL;

CrInt32u numofProperties = 0;

SCRSDK::GetLiveViewProperties(handle, &pProperties, &numofProperties);

if (pProperties) { // the property list is received successfully

for (CrInt32u n = 0; n < numofProperties; n++) {

switch (pProperties[n].GetCode()) {

case CrLiveViewProperty_AF_Area_Position:

// code to parse the properties...

SCRSDK::ReleaseLiveViewProperties(handle, pProperties);

53
 Camera Remote SDK

Device Properties and Live View Properties

CrDeviceProperty class and CrLiveViewProperty class store similar property values. The contents
and the differences are explained in this section.

The CrDeviceProperty class has the following member variables shown below:

- code : Identify the content of the property.

- value Type : Specify the value variable type.
- enable Flag : Capability of the operation. Modifiable / Get Only / Invalid / Set Only
- current Value : Current property value. This value is defined as a 64bit variable.
If the property has a limited number of options, it has a list of the selectable options.

- value Size : Number of the selectable options.

- values : List of the selectable options.

The property code is defined in enum CrDevicePropertyCode in CrDeviceProperty.h. For example,

CrDeviceProperty_FNumber is defined as 0x0100. The value type is CrDataType_UInt16. The current
value is defined as a 64bit variable, but in this case only the highest 16bit is valid.

Example:

switch (property->code) {

case CrDeviceProperty_FNumber:

CrInt16u currentvalue = static_cast<CrInt16u>(property-

>GetCurrentValue());

If the enable flag is modifiable, the property can be acquired and can be set. To change the property
value, refer to the SetDeviceProperty() function described in the next section. If the enable flag is Get
Only, the property can be acquired and be referred to by GetDeviceProperties(), but cannot be
changed.

Invalid means the property is invalid. This property must not be referred to or set. Set Only is also a
very special case, as you see there is no “SetLiveViewProperty()” function. The properties you get via
GetLiveViewProperties() are properties closely related to the live view feature, but in order to change
the property you can use the SetDeviceProperty() function.

Depending on the camera status, this flag value changes. In case of CrDeviceProperty_FNumber, if
the exposure mode of the camera is “M” or “A”, this flag is modifiable, and in case of “P” or “S”, this
flag is Get Only.

If the property has selectable options, it has the list and the count of the list. Please note that the size
is “Byte Size”, not the count of the elements. Therefore, dividing by the size of the value type, the
count of the elements can be calculated.

54
 Camera Remote SDK

See the following reference pages to understand the property code and the type definitions.

Example:

switch (property->code) {

case CrDeviceProperty_FNumber:

CrInt16u currentvalue = static_cast<CrInt16u>(property->GetCurrentValue());

CrInt32u countofelement = property->GetValueSize() / sizeof(CrInt16u);

CrInt16u *poptions = static_cast<CrInt16u*>property->GetValues();

if (countofelement) {

CrInt16u *elements = new CrInt16u[countofelement];

for (CrInt32u n = 0; n < countofelement; n++) {

elements[n] = *poptions++;

The CrLiveViewProperty class has similar members but there is “value size” to specify the memory
size of current value, and there is no “selectable option” and its size field.

- code : Identify the content of the property.

- value Type : Specify the frame data type of value.
- enable Flag : Capability of the operation. Get Only
- value Size : Memory size in Bytes of Current property value.
- value : Current property value. This value is a memory block.
This value size is larger than CrDeviceProperty, because CrLiveViewProperty has the properties that
represent coordination, regions or in some cases include the style. The definitions of the data type are
described in the header file of “CrDeviceProperty.h” and the following reference section.

Because this CrLiveViewProperty class tells the information of the focus area, live view display
magnification region, or custom white balance region, the API to get the properties from the camera is
separated from GetDeviceProperties().

But note that to change those properties, the SetDeviceProperty() command must be used.

Example:

switch (property->code) {

case CrLiveViewProperty_AF_Area_Position:

CrFocusFrameInfo *pinfo

= static_cast<CrFocusFrameInfo *>(property->value);

55
 Camera Remote SDK

Change the Camera Properties

To change camera properties, for example F number, shutter speed, ISO and so on, send change
property commands by using SetDeviceProperty(). There are two parameters, the first parameter is
the device handle of the target camera, and the second parameter is the CrDeviceProperty class
object. In this CrDeviceProperty object, only the code and value members are referred to in Camera
Remote SDK.

If the value is invalid, the command is ignored, for example, where the out-of-range F number or
setting F number in exposure mode is “S”.

The combination of the code and the available value is described in API Reference section.

Note that this SetDeviceProperty() call is not synchronous. Once SetDeviceProperty() is called, the
command is queued in the command queue in Camera Remote SDK and it is transmitted to camera
at the appropriate time. It means that there is a short time lag between this function call and the
camera’s property change.

The properties in Camera Remote SDK are also not updated by the SetDeviceProperty() function.
SDK keeps the property status of the camera. It is updated after the camera changes its status.

GetDeviceProperties()

If the property is not changed because of the camera status, Camera Remote SDK does not notify
you of anything. It is recommended to set the 3- to 5-second timer in the user interface and try to get
the property status to SDK and update the user interface state.

The following is sample code for updating device property of numeric type.

Example:

SCRSDK::CrDeviceProperty prop;
prop.SetCode(code); // Specify the code of the device property you want to update
prop.SetValueType(type); // Specify the type of the device property you want to update
prop.SetCurrentValue((CrInt64u)newValue);
SCRSDK::SetDeviceProperty(handle, &prop);

56
 Camera Remote SDK

The following is sample code for updating a device property of type CrDataType_STR.

Example:

SCRSDK::CrDeviceProperty prop;
prop.SetCode(code); // Specify the code of CrDataType_STR device property you want to update
prop.SetValueType(type); // Specify the type of CrDataType_STR device property you want to
update
#if defined (_UNICODE) || defined (UNICODE)
std::wstring input(L“TEST1”);
#else
std::string input(“TEST1”);
#endif
// The string length that can be set varies depending on the device property.
// Check the maximum character length of the device property to be updated.
// The only CrDataType_STR device property that can be updated in version 1.08.00 is
CrDeviceProperty_ImageID_String.
int strLen = input.length();
if (64 < strLen)
return; // String is too long.

// Prepare a place to store the string to be set.

// Notes:
// Append a null-terminate and pass it to the Camera Remote SDK.
// The first 2 bytes are the character string length including the null-terminate.
CrInt16u* setStr = new CrInt16u[strLen+2];
memset(setStr, 0, sizeof(setStr));
setStr[0] = (CrInt16u)strLen + 1; // +1 = null-terminate
#if defined (_UNICODE) || defined (UNICODE)
lstrcpy((wchar_t*)&setStr[1], input.c_str());
#else
// Convert multi byte char to wide byte char
wchar_t wbuff;
for (int i = 0; i < input.length(); ++i) {
int retLen = mbtowc(&wbuff, &input.at(i), 1);
if (-1 != retLen) {
setStr[i + 1] = (CrInt16u)wbuff;
//setStr[i + 1] = (CrInt16u)((wbuff & 0xFF) << 8 | ((wbuff >> 8) & 0xFF)); // For endian convert
}
}
#endif
prop.SetCurrentStr(setStr); // Use SetCurrentStr() for CrDataType_STR
SCRSDK::SetDeviceProperty(handle, &prop);
delete[] setStr;

 Camera Remote SDK

Send a Control Command

Some of the camera commands are implemented as “Control Command”. For example, shutter
release (fully pressing the shutter button), movie record and so on. In these cases, the
SendCommand() function must be used. The interface of this function is much simpler than the device
property case.

void SendCommand(CrDeviceHandle device, CrInt32u commandId, CrCommandParam parm);

The first parameter specifies the device, the second parameter indexes the command id and the last
parameter is ON (CrCommandParam_Down) or OFF (CrCommandParam_Up). The Up and Down
expresses the physical button action.

The following example shows how to capture images.

Example:

SCRSDK::SendCommand(handle, CrCommandId_Release, CrCommandParam_Down);

This command initiates a human’s action using the button; therefore, the button must be released
(Up) once when you send “Down” command. If the camera’s drive mode is in the continuous shooting
mode, the camera captures continuously what it receives from the CrCommandParam_Down
command until it receives CrCommandParam_Up.

This sample code shows the simplest way to press the shutter release button for one second.

Example:

SCRSDK::SendCommand(handle, CrCommandId_Release, CrCommandParam_Down);

Sleep(1000);

SCRSDK::SendCommand(handle, CrCommandId_Release, CrCommandParam_Up);

This command sent by SendCommand() has a higher priority than other communication processes,
getting device properties, and getting live view image data and so on, to make the response of
camera quicker.

58
 Camera Remote SDK

Get a Live View Image

Live view image is sent from the camera as a Jpeg image. The image size depends on the live view
image quality of the camera setting and the image aspect mode.

The image is updated at a rate of 30 frames per second if the communication speed is good. The
FPS becomes much lower when the communication bandwidth is narrow. The situations, where the
communication quality is poor or where captured images are transmitted, result in corresponding to a
lower live view FPS.

To receive live view image, a receive buffer needs to be prepared. The buffer size can be acquired
by the GetLiveViewImageInfo() function. The first parameter is the device handle, and the second
parameter is the pointer to CrImageInfo. CrImageInfo has the information related to width, height and
the required buffer size. After getting the image buffer size, allocate the memory buffer for the image
and call GetLiveViewImage().
Example:

CrImageInfo *pInfo = new CrImageInfo();

SCRSDK::GetLiveViewImageInfo(handle, pInfo);

CrImageDataBlock *pLiveViewImage = new CrImageDataBlock();

pLiveViewImage->SetSize(pInfo->GetBufferSize());

CrInt8u* recvBuffer = new CrInt8u[pInfo->GetBufferSize()];

pLiveViewImage->SetData(recvBuffer);

SCRSDK::GetLiveViewImage(handle, pLiveViewImage);

Example:

SCRSDK::GetLiveViewImage(handle, pLiveViewImage);

CrInt32u size = pLiveViewImage->GetImageSize();

CrInt8u *pdata = pLiveViewImage->GetImageData();

CrImageInfo has the Jpeg image data and its size. GetImageData() returns the data pointer and
GetImageSize() returns the data size.

This Jpeg image data starts from SOI marker (FF D8) and ends with EOI marker (FF D9). It can be
displayed as it is by the graphic user interface using OpenGL, DirectDraw or another framework.

59
 Camera Remote SDK

Example:

SCRSDK::GetLiveViewImage(handle, pLiveViewImage);

CrInt32u size = pLiveViewImage->GetImageSize();

CrInt8u *pJpegData = new CrInt8u[size];

memcpy(pJpegData, pLiveViewImage->GetImageData(), size);

The image is updated inside Camera Remote SDK and one unique and an incremental number is
given for the image that is transmitted from the camera. GetLiveViewImage() compares the frame
number of the given CrImageDataBlock class object and the current frame number in the Camera
Remote SDK. If the given number is smaller than the current number, a copy of the new image buffer
is made of the given object and updates the frame number of the given object. If the number of the
object is equal or larger than the number of the SDK, no copy is made, and it returns
CrWarning_Frame_NotUpdated. Therefore, at the first call of GetLiveViewImage(), the frame number
of CrImageDataBlock should be set to zero.

The size member of CrImageDataBlock is updated to the real image data size in
GetLiveViewImage(). Where the buffer size of CrImageDataBlock is smaller than received image size,
Camera Remote SDK also does not copy the buffer and returns CrError_Memory_Insufficient.

If the return value of the GetLiveViewImage() is CrWarning_Frame_NotUpdated, wait for a while and
get the frame again. If the return value is CrError_Memory_Insufficient, get the image buffer size by
GetLiveViewImageInfo() and reallocate the memory as the new size.

If GetLiveViewImage() returns CrError_Generic_Unknown, it means that there is an issue related to

the data communication between the PC and Camera.

ILME-FX6 does not support GetLiveViewImage(), so LiveView(Video Monitoring) must be displayed

via HDMI or SDI.

 Camera Remote SDK

Capture an Image Sequence

Where the store image destination (CrDeviceProperty_StillImageStoreDestination) property is “PC” or
“PC and Camera”, the captured image is automatically transmitted to PC and stored in the storage of
the PC by Camera Remote SDK.

This section explains the sequence of the storing captured images.

User Camera Remote SDK

SendCommand()
Release shutter button command

Camera

Captured image

Save as a file
OnCompleteDownload()

After Camera Remote SDK stored the image to a file, the OnCompleteDownload() callback function
is called with the stored file path.

void OnCompleteDownload(CrChar *filename);

The store image folder can be set using the SetSaveInfo() function. The next section explains this
process.

61
 Camera Remote SDK

Change the Store Image Folder and the File Name

Camera Remote SDK has two modes to specify the image file name. One is “Auto Mode” and the
other is “Manual Mode”.

Auto Mode gives the image file name that is determined by the camera. In this case the naming rule
of the camera is used. If the file name conflicts with an existing file, an additional number is appended
after the file name like DSC01234(1).JPG.

In Manual Mode, your program can specify the file name prefix and the start number. “ABCDE” as
prefix and 100 as the start number makes the name from “ABCDE00100.JPG”. To change the mode
and the prefix and start number, use the SetSaveInfo() function. In this case, Camera Remote SDK
finds a number that does not conflict with existing files and incrementally sets the file number like
ABCDE00100(1).JPG.

The SetSaveInfo() function has four parameters. The first parameter specifies the device handle, the
second parameter specifies the folder path to store, the third parameter specifies the file prefix string
and the last parameter specifies the start number that is added to the file name.

To change to Auto Mode, set the null string (note that it means “”, not null pointer) and give -1 as the
start number.

Example:

SCRSDK::SetSaveInfo(handle, L“C:\Image”, L””, -1);

Using Manual Mode and the specified prefix, set the string of the parameter. For example, to store
the images in “C:\Image”, set the string giving the “ABCDE” prefix and the sequential number from
00100.

Example:

SCRSDK::SetSaveInfo(handle, L“C:\Image”, L”ABCDE”, 100);

Camera Remote SDK works in Unicode, the folder path and the prefix must be set as Unicode string.

Get the menu display string

Information (character string and value) related to the menu display of the camera body can be
acquired. It is assumed that the acquired information will be used in each user application.

First, request the SDK to get the display string information from the camera body with
RequestDisplayStringList(). The result will be notified by a OnWarning().
If the request is successful, you will be able to know the types of information that can be obtained with
GetDisplayStringTypes(), and you will be able to get the information with GetDisplayStringList(). It is

Note: We cannot guarantee the transfer of content taken with other cameras. And large files may not
be handled depending on the OS.

Example:

err = SCRSDK::PullContentsFile(handle, cList[j]);

class MyDeviceCallback : public IDeviceCallback {

void OnNotifyContentsTransfer(CrInt32u notify, CrContentHandle handle, CrChar* filename = 0) {
if (CrNotify_ContentsTransfer_Start == notify) {
:
else if (CrNotify_ContentsTransfer_Complete == notify) {
:
else
: // Failure

You can also get a thumbnail of the content with GetContentsThumbnailImage(). For example, as a
means of selecting the content to be pull, it is possible to preview the thumbnails of all the content on
the application screen.

 Camera Remote SDK

Example:

CrInt32u bufSize = 0x4B000; // Uses LiveViewImage buffer size

auto* image_data = new SCRSDK::CrImageDataBlock();
if (image_data) {
CrInt8u* image_buff = new CrInt8u[bufSize];
if (image_buff) {
image_data->SetSize(bufSize);
image_data->SetData(image_buff);
SCRSDK::GetContentsThumbnailImage(handle, cList[j], image_data);
:

Note that PullContentsFile() is an asynchronous API and GetContentsThumbnailImage() is a

synchronous API. Camera Remote SDK will not be able to respond to GetContentsThumbnailImage()
calls until it has completed the queue processing accumulated by one or more PullContentsFile()
calls. And while running GetContentsThumbnailImage(), the application cannot call PullContentsFile().

Get the MediaProfile

It is an API to get the MediaProfile stored in the media of the camera.

In ILME-FX6, meta information such as recorded content is called "MediaProfile".

With this API you can only get MediaProfile about the content. Not an API to get content files.

The second parameter specifies the Slot for which you want to get the MediaProfile. The third
parameter is a pointer to which the list information of the acquired MediaProfile is written. The fourth
parameter is set to the number of acquired MediaProfile and returns.

Example:

CrInt32u numOfList= 0;
SCRSDK:: CrMediaProfileInfo* mediaList;

CrError err = SCRSDK:: GetMediaProfile (

handle,
SCRSDK::CrMediaProfile_Slot1,
&mediaList,
&numOfList);

if (CR_SUCCEEDED(err) && 0 < numOfList) {

// etc.

// release of list pointer

SCRSDK:: ReleaseMediaProfile(handle, mediaList);

For example, there is "contentUrl" in the information obtained by this API. If you enter those URLs in
browser software (Chrome, Safari, etc.) that supports streaming playback, you can play the content.

SDK Properties
Using SetDeviceSetting(), some behavior of Camera Remote SDK can be changed. The setting can
be set for each device.

CrError SetDeviceSetting(CrDeviceHandle handle, CrInt32u key, CrInt32u value);

The following code sample disables and enables the Live View function; setting
“CrDeviceSetting_Disable” disables it and setting “CrDeviceSetting_Enable” enables it.

Example:

SCRSDK::SetDeviceSetting(handle, Setting_Key_EnableLiveView, CrDeviceSetting_Disable);

SCRSDK::SetDeviceSetting(handle, Setting_Key_EnableLiveView, CrDeviceSetting_Enable);

In the following sample code, setting 2 will change the captured still image data to be divided into
2MB each and transferred to the host PC.
If you want to return to the initial state, set “CrPartialFile_Default”.
The initial state varies depending on the connection type.
See SetDeviceSetting() for details.

Example:

SCRSDK::SetDeviceSetting(handle, Setting_Key_PartialBuffer, 2);

SCRSDK::SetDeviceSetting(handle, Setting_Key_PartialBuffer, CrPartialFile_Default);

Download and upload setting files

You can save(download) the camera settings as a file on the host PC or a storage device connected
to the host PC. You can restore the camera settings by uploading the file saved with this API to the
camera. You can only upload to the same model. It is also possible to upload to another camera of
the same model.

DownloadSettingFile() has four parameters. The second parameter specifies the type of file to
download from the camera. Specify the file save path in the third parameter and the file name in the
fourth parameter.

Specify the file save location in the third parameter and the file name in the fourth parameter.

refs. DownloadSettingFile() API

Example:

CrError err = SCRSDK::DownloadSettingFile(

handle,
SCRSDK::CrDownloadSettingFileType_Setup,
path,
name);

UploadSettingFile() has three parameters. The second parameter specifies the type of file to upload
to the camera. The third specifies the full path of the file to upload to the camera.

The upload result will be notified by a OnWarning(). If a file for another model or an invalid file is
uploaded, CrWarning_CameraSettings_Read_Result_Invalid etc. will be returned.

Example:

SCRSDK:: UploadSettingFile(
handle,
SCRSDK::CrUploadSettingFileType_Setup,

EnumCameraObjects

Overview
The API generates a list of “connectable” cameras. Even if a Sony camera is visible to the PC, if
the camera doesn’t have PC remote control feature or if the camera doesn’t have compatibility
with this version of Camera Remote SDK, the camera is not listed. Please refer the target model
list of this Camera Remote SDK.

Definition

Input parameters

Type Explanation
timeInSec
CrInt8u This parameter is not supported with the current Camera Remote
SDK.

Output parameters
Type Explanation

ppEnumCameraObjectInfo

This is an input/output parameter.

When this API returns, ppEnumCameraObjectInfo

points an enumerator object to enumerate the
connected cameras. If this pointer is null, no
ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo** suitable camera devices were found.

When the function returns successfully, the new

object will be allocated within the function by the
SDK. And because this pointer is overwritten in
the SDK, calling EnumCameraObjects with
unreleased memory object of this parameter will
cause of leaking memory.

Return value

GetFingerprint

Overview
This API gets a fingerprint data from a camera that requires an SSH authentication connection.

Getting and checking the fingerprint is the only way to avoid connecting to the wrong destination
(SSH server other than camera). The user should compare the fingerprint acquired by this API
with the fingerprint displayed on the camera body and judge whether it is correct or not. If they
do not match, the Connect() will fail even if you proceed to the connection process.

Fingerprint data changes when the camera body is initialized or the fingerprint is regenerated on
the camera body. Fingerprint data is required for Connect(), but it does not require
GetFingerprint() every time before Connect(). Only when the fingerprint data does not change,
the fingerprint data obtained by this API can be used as a parameter of Connect() many times.

Definition
CrError GetFingerprint(ICrCameraObjectInfo* pCameraObjectInfo, char* fingerprint, CrInt32u*

Input parameters

Type Explanation

pCameraObjectInfo

ICrCameraObjectInfo* he camera which is going to be connected. This

Connection
Connect

Overview
This API attempts to connect to the camera device specified by the user.

This function is an asynchronous connection request. If this function returns without error, the
asynchronous connection request has been initiated successfully.

Success or failure of the connection is communicated to the user through the IDeviceCallback
interface. This interface must be implemented by the user to use the Camera Remote SDK.

The content transfer function has been added from version 1.05.00, and the openMode
parameter has been added to this API. The openMode parameter is optional. This can be
omitted when performing remote control as before.

From version 1.06.00, the function to specify the behavior of automatic reconnection and the
information for SSH authenticate connection has been added. The automatic reconnection
control parameters are optional. By default, automatic reconnection is enabled, but when in
ContentsTransferMode, automatic reconnection is forcibly disabled. This is due to the limitations
of the camera body.

- See “Supporting physical layer” for content transfer support models

- See “Pull out content stored on media” for content transfer capabilities

When operating a camera that requires SSH authentication, it is necessary to set a User name
and Password on the camera body. In addition, it is necessary to acquire fingerprint data in
advance with GetFingerprint().

 GetFingerprint
 Disconnect
 EnumCameraObjects
 CreateCameraObjectInfo
 IDeviceCallback::OnConnected

Special note (details)

This API can be used in two ways: to connect to a new device and to reconnect to an existing
device.

To connect to a new device, supply a deviceHandle value of 0 and a pointer to a valid

ICrCameraObjectInfo.

To reconnect to an existing device, supply the deviceHandle of that device to this API and NULL in
pCameraObjectInfo. The SDK will then reuse the existing internal device handle and attempt to
connect to the specified camera device. Reconnection will not work if the specific device was
previously released with the ReleaseDevice API. In this case, CrError_Generic_Unknown will be
returned.

A successful connection is reported to the user through the IDeviceCallback::OnConnected

interface function. An implementation of this function must be supplied to Connect by the user
though the callback parameter.

The deviceHandle out-parameter returns the SDK device identifier to the user. This identifier is
required to use subsequent SDK API functions to interact with the connected device.

Repeatedly entering the wrong SSH parameters will lock the camera. In that case, turn off the
power switch of the camera and restart it, or wait for a while and then try again.

 Camera Remote SDK

Special note (details)

- Setting_Key_EnableLiveView
Controls whether or not the Live View image capturing function is enabled.
Use the CrDeviceSetting defined in CrDefines.h.
The default value is "Enable". Note that if GetLiveViewImage() is called after the change to
"Disable", the Live View image retrieved from the camera immediately before the change to
"Disable" will be returned.

- Setting_Key_PartialBuffer
Controls the data transfer size when saving captured images to the host PC.
Use the CrPartialFile defined in CrDefines.h.
Normally (i.e., by CrPartialFile_Default), when connected via Ethernet, one captured image is
transferred in 1 MB increments and stored on the host PC; when connected via USB, one
captured image is transferred as a batch and stored on the host PC.
The advantage of partial transfer via USB connection is that SDK processing is not dominated
by the transfer of captured images.
Live View images are designed to be displayed at a maximum of 30 fps, but if the batch
transfer of captured image data takes time, the interval between Live View image acquisition
processes will increase, resulting in a drop in fps. If the Live View image does not display
smoothly when shooting via USB connection, consider adjusting the transfer size in this setting.
However, please note that the smaller the specified size, the longer the total time required to
complete the transfer of one captured image.

Output parameters
Type Explanation

types

The CrDisplayStringType list pointer. Developers should

pass the address of a modifiable CrDisplayStringType
pointer. The value of this pointer should be initialized to
nullptr.
CrDisplayStringType** The function will make a copy of the SDK-internal
CrDisplayStringType list for the indicated deviceHandle.
When function returns successfully, this parameter will
point to the copy of CrDisplayStringType list.

Note:
It may contain CrDisplayStringType that the SDK does
not support.

numOfTypes

CrInt32u* An integer pointer that indicates the number of

CrDisplayStringType returned by the types pointer.
Developers should pass the address of a modifiable
CrInt32u variable.

 Camera Remote SDK

Return value

Type Explanation
CrError_None on Success
However, if numOfTypes is zero, even if CrError_None is returned,
it should be judged as fail.

CrError CrError_Api_NoApplicableInformation The reason why

numOfTypes is returned as zero is probably because
RequestDisplayStringList() has not been executed yet, or the
camera itself does not own the CrDisplayStringType specified by
the type parameter of RequestDisplayStringList().

Callback Interface
IDeviceCallback

The callback interface of the SDK. This interface is used by the Camera Remote SDK to
communicate the result of various asynchronous events to the user.

The user must implement a class deriving from this interface to use the SDK. This derived class
should be passed to the Connect API to establish the callback communication channel with the SDK.

Pure Virtual Functions

Signature Description

virtual void OnConnected(DeviceConnectionVersion Called by the SDK when a device is

version) successfully connected

Called by the SDK when a device

virtual void OnDisconnected(CrInt32u error) disconnects. The error code may indicate a
reason

Called by the SDK when a device property

virtual void OnPropertyChanged()
changes

Called by the SDK when a LiveView property

virtual void OnLvPropertyChanged()
changes

Called by the SDK when a capture image or

setting file has completely been transferred
to the host device.

virtual void OnCompleteDownload(CrChar When capture image transfer is complete,

*filename, CrInt32u type = 0xFFFFFFFF) the type parameter is 0xFFFFFFFF.

When DownloadSettingFile() succeeds, type

parameter becomes
CrDownloadSettingFileType_Setup.

Called when the SDK detects a warning. The

virtual void OnWarning(CrInt32u warning) warning code is passed back to the
application as a parameter

Called when the SDK detects an error. The

virtual void OnError(CrInt32u error) error code is passed back to the application
as a parameter

Called by the SDK when a device property

changes.

The difference from OnPropertyChanged() is

that you can get the updated device property
virtual void OnPropertyChangedCodes(CrInt32u
code list. If you pass the device property
num, CrInt32u* codes)
code list received by this callback to
GetSelectDeviceProperties(), you can get
only the updated property information.
Performance improvement can be expected
by minimizing the amount of receive data.

165
 Camera Remote SDK

virtual void OnLvPropertyChangedCodes(CrInt32u Called by the SDK when a LiveView property

num, CrInt32u* codes) changes

Called when content transfer starts and

ends, or when transfer fails.
virtual void OnNotifyContentsTransfer(CrInt32u The filename parameter is the name
notify, CrContentHandle handle, CrChar* filename = (including path) of the content that will be set
0) when the content transfer is complete.
The filename parameter is not set when

ICrCameraObjectInfo

Your application can access to the specified camera information that is enumerated by
EnumCameraObjects() using this interface.

The information retrieved from this interface is useful for displaying various information about the
corresponding device to the end user of an application utilising the Camera Remote SDK. The
information provided by this class is also required when establishing a new connection to a camera
device. It should be provided when calling the Connect API.

The user should never manually free these objects by calling free or delete. Instead, the user should
call ICrCameraObjectInfo::Release. This passes responsibility for releasing the allocated memory to
the SDK, where it can be properly released.

 Camera Remote SDK

ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo

The virtual interface for interacting with enumerated device info list created by the SDK.

This is the enumerator object interface to access the list of connectable cameras. Your application
can get the access interface to the each camera using GetCameraObjectInfo().

A “connectable” device fulfils three requirements. One, the device itself supports PC Remote Control
features. Two, the device model is supported by the current Camera Remote SDK release. Three, the
connection method used by the device is supported by the current Camera Remote SDK. All three
requirements must be fulfilled for the device information to be populated in the list.

All ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo interface objects are allocated internally by the SDK before having
their address passed back to the user. The user should never manually free these objects by calling
free or delete. Instead, the user should call ICrEnumCameraObjectInfo::Release. This passes
responsibility for releasing the allocated memory to the SDK, where it can be properly released.

Pure Virtual Functions

Signature Description

Calls the SDK to

virtual void Release() destroy the allocated

Other than above values The real value of shutter speed (Upper two bytes:
numerator, Lower two bytes: denominator)

In the case of the shutter speed is displayed as "Real

Number" on the camera, the denominator is fixed 0x000A.

e.g.) 0x000F000A: 0x000F (means 15) / 0x0000A (means

10) = 1.5"

In the case of the shutter speed is displayed as "Fraction

Number" on the camera, the numerator is fixed 0x0001.

e.g.) 0x000103E8: 0x0001 (means 1) / 0x03E8 (means

1000) = 1/1000

CrDeviceProperty_Colortemp

Get/Set the Color Temperature

For models that support CrDeviceProperty_ColortempStep, the CurrentValue of this device property
is also updated by manipulating CrDeviceProperty_ColortempStep.

Value Explanation
The resolution of the CurrentValue is the step value.
The CurrentValue increases or decreases with each
Variable min step value.

Ex.)
If min = 1000, max = 1500, step = 100, you can set 6
values of 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500 to
Variable max CurrentValue.

The special CurrentValue are following.

- 0x0000 means less than min.
- 0xFFFF means greater than max.
These value is not included the value of Range. (It is
only used as CurrentValue.)

Variable step Note:

In ILME-FX6, it is always GetOnly, regardless of the
return value of IsSetEnableCurrentValue().

Enum value[3] = 0x00000050FFFFFFFF (means x8.0)

0x0000000000000000 [Lower 4bytes] Regarding Focus Magnifier Position (x,y) :

The upper 2 bytes are the x coordinate and the lower 2 bytes
~ are the y coordinate.
If this part is 0xFFFFFFFF, it means an invalid value.
0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF If focus magnifier position (x) is 150 and (y) is 100, set
0x00960064. 0x0096 = 0d150, 0x0064 = 0d100.
The range of X is 0 ~ 639 (0x027F), and the range of Y is 0 ~
479 (0x01DF).
Frame size is acquired by CrMagPosInfo. CrMagPosInfo is in
LiveViewProperty.
Since this position specifies the center of the frame, the position
range is more inside by half the frame size than
CrMagPosInfo.xDenominator/yDenominator.

Caution:
If it is not in the magnified focus state, the desired result may
not be obtained unless the correct position is set again after
refreshing the state by setting 0xFFFFFFFF (Invalid Value) in
the lower 4 bytes in advance.

Note:
See Tips/Trouble shooting for a detailed implementation
example.

Tips / Trouble Shooting

Shutter Release
If you struggle to make “Shutter Release” success in a remote control, please try to set camera
settings “Exposure Program Mode” with “M(Manual)” and “FocusMode” with “MF(Manual Focus)”.
∵As camera accepts “Shutter release control” after coming into focus in several Auto Focus modes,
sometimes focus mode setting, focus area setting, and shooting environmental conditions prevent
camera to accept “Shutter Release”.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “CrDeviceProperty_PriorityKeySettings” with “CrPriorityKey_PCRemote”

2. “CrDeviceProperty_ExposureProgramMode” with “CrExposure_M_Manual”
3. “CrDeviceProperty_FocusMode” with “CrFocus_MF”
4. “CrCommandId_Release” with “CrCommandParam_Down”
5. “CrCommandId_Release” with “CrCommandParam_Up”

Also, memory card full situation prevents shutter release from execution, so it is recommended to
prepare enough space in the memory card and / or prepare dual memory cards before remote control.

Shutter Half Release / Auto Focus

If you struggle to make “Shutter Half Release” success and come into focus successfully in remote
controls, please try to set camera settings “FocusMode” with “AF-S”, and “FocusArea” with “Wide”.
∵As camera occasionally takes time relatively to come into focus depends on settings and shooting
environmental conditions in several auto focus modes, above settings have relatively wide
acceptance to come into focus.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “CrDeviceProperty_PriorityKeySettings” with “CrPriorityKey_PCRemote”

2. “CrDeviceProperty_FocusMode” with “CrFocus_AF_S”
3. “CrDeviceProperty_FocusArea” with “CrFocusArea_Wide”
4. “CrDeviceProperty_S1” with “CrLockIndicator_Locked”
5. “CrDeviceProperty_S1” with “CrLockIndicator_Unlocked”

Manual Focus
If you struggle to control focus manually in remote controls, please try to set camera settings
“FocusMode” with “MF(Manual Focus)”.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “CrDeviceProperty_PriorityKeySettings” with “CrPriorityKey_PCRemote”

2. “CrDeviceProperty_FocusMode” with “CrFocus_MF”

282
 Camera Remote SDK

Device Property
If you struggle to change camera settings, it is recommended to check enable flag in each
DeviceProperty by sending GetDeviceProperties and receiving the latest information before sending
SetDeviceProperty. ∵As the
specification of camera products, camera settings have exclusive conditions. For example, focus
control Near/Far is not acceptable in Focus Mode “AF-S”. In order to identify whether an issue is
coming from remote control related or camera settings acceptable/unacceptable conditions, you
better try what you want to do first w/o remote control but w/ direct camera operation by camera
buttons / menu settings. Then copy operations with remote control. “Help Guide” for each product
may help you to understand the specification of camera products including acceptable/unacceptable
conditions of settings.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “GetDeviceProperties” with “CrDevicePropertyCode”

2. Check “CrPropertyEnableFlag” of “CrDeviceProperty”
3. “SetDeviceProperty” with “CrDevicePropertyCode”

Also, it is recommended to set a value from candidate values list in each DeviceProperty after
sending GetDeviceProperties and receiving the latest information before sending SetDeviceProperty.
∵As the specification of camera products, camera settings have variable acceptance for value
depends on settings and shooting environmental conditions. For example, acceptable F number value
varies depends on the lens attached to the camera, other settings, and the shooting environmental
conditions.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “GetDeviceProperties” with “CrDevicePropertyCode”

2. Check “valuesSize” and “values” of “CrDeviceProperty”
3. “SetDeviceProperty” with “CrDevicePropertyCode”

Some of DeviceProperties are originally assigned on HardKeys of the camera product, and in these
cases, need to change KeyPriority from “CameraPosition” to “PCRemote” before sending
SetDeviceProperty. This applies to “ExposureProgramMode”, “FocusMode” and “Still Capture
Mode(Drive Mode)”.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “CrDeviceProperty_PriorityKeySettings” with “CrPriorityKey_PCRemote”

2. “SetDeviceProperty” with “CrDevicePropertyCode”

Transfer of shot images preparation

If you struggle to transfer shot images to PC, please check if you changed
“StillImageStoreDestination” before shutter button release. You can select from
HostPC/MemoryCard/HostPCAndMemoryCard. When you transfer shot images to PC, you need to
change it to HostPC/HostPCAndMemoryCard beforehand.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “CrDeviceProperty_StillImageStoreDestination” with
“CrStillImageStoreDestination_HostPCAndMemoryCard(or _HostPC)”
2. “CrCommandId_Release” with “CrCommandParam_Down”
3. “CrCommandId_Release” with “CrCommandParam_Up”
4. Check the folder set by SetSaveInfo() and open image files transferred to PC.

Please note that if once Host PC transfer is set like above, camera side also starts preparing and
sending out image files, it is recommended to disconnect after finishing transfer of all images shot on

283
 Camera Remote SDK

the camera. If disconnected before transfer finishes, camera and PC restart to transfer after
reconnection, except for camera power off or physical disconnection case.

Selected Media Format

If Still Image Save Destination is Host Device, recording media cannot be initialized.

If you want to initialize it, change Still Image Save Destination to Camera or Host Device and Camera.

Remote Control Settings Example

1. “CrDeviceProperty_StillImageStoreDestination” with
“CrStillImageStoreDestination_HostPCAndMemoryCard(or _MemoryCard)”

Live View
If you struggle to have stable live view images, please check following factors affect to transmission of
LiveView images.

-Traffic on the physical connection between PC and camera, such as HUB connection, not related
devices connection, and so on.

-Traffic on the communicational connection between PC and camera, such as frequent shutter
releases and transfers, frequent Get/Set device properties, and so on.

-Performance of PC (CPU power, memory resource, device specification, etc. ).

-Some functions to be disabled they can be processing loads to CPU on the Single Board Computer,
such as Wi-Fi function.

If you prefer stable frame rate of live view images, minimizing image size of Live View images (and/or
capturing images), reducing frequency of shutter release, stopping capturing images, and stopping
transferring images to PC contributes to it.

285
 Camera Remote SDK

Camera Settings Saving

After changing camera settings, if you detach a battery from a camera (or stop power supply through
power supply cable) without completing power off sequence with camera power button control, there
is no guarantee that camera setting changes are saved. It is recommended to complete power off
sequence with camera power button control at least once after you change camera settings, if you
prefer to resume camera settings as you changed for next use.

Focus Magnifier Setting

If you want to update “Focus Magnifier Setting”, implement the following steps.
refs. Device Properties and Live View Properties

1. Get a list of properties using the GetDeviceProperties

2. Look for "Focus Magnifier Setting" from the list of properties to find out the list of selectable focus
magnification

Example:

switch (property->GetCode()) {
case CrDeviceProperty_Focus_Magnifier_Setting:
CrInt64u currentvalue = static_cast<CrInt64u>(property->GetCurrentValue());
CrInt32u ratioNow = (currentvalue >> 32);
CrInt16u xNow = ((currentvalue >> 16) & 0xFFFF);
CrInt16u yNow = (currentvalue & 0xFFFF);
CrInt32u valCount = property->GetValueSize() / sizeof(CrInt64u);
CrInt64u* ratioSetList = new CrInt64u[valCount];
memcpy(ratioSetList, property->GetValues(),(size_t)property->GetValueSize());

3. Use the GetLiveViewProperties to get a list of Live View properties

4. Look for "CrMagPosInfo" in the retrieved list of Live View properties to find out the range of
configurable positions

Example:

switch (lvproperty->GetCode()) {
case CrLiveViewProperty_Focus_Magnifier_Position:
if (CrFrameInfoType::CrFrameInfoType_Magnifier_Position == lvproperty-
>GetFrameInfoType()) {
CrMagPosInfo *pPosInfo = (CrMagPosInfo*)(lvproperty->GetValue());
posXmax = pPosInfo->xDenominator;
posYmax = pPosInfo->yDenominator;

5. Create a 64 bit value by combining the magnification rate obtained in step 2 and the coordinates
that do not exceed the range obtained in step 4
6. Call SetDeviceProperty with the value you created in step 5
286
 Camera Remote SDK

Example:

CrInt32u setX = 200; // Between 0 and (posXmax-1)

CrInt32u setY = 150; // Between 0 ant (posYmax-1)
CrInt64u setvalue = (ratioSetList[2] & 0xFFFFFFFF00000000) | (setX << 16) | setY;
CrDeviceProperty prop;
prop.SetCode(CrDeviceProperty_Focus_Magnifier_Setting);
prop.SetCurrentValue(setvalue);
prop.SetValueType(CrDataType_UInt64);
SetDeviceProperty(deviceHandle, &prop);

How to use LensInformation

Get a table for converting CrDeviceProperty_FollowFocusPositionSetting and
CrDeviceProperty_FollowFocusPositionCurrentValue to Focus position (meters/feet).
Valid only when compatible lens is attached.

The following are available when CrDeviceProperty_LensInformationEnableStatus is set to Enable.

Example:

std::vector<SCRSDK::CrLensInformation*> m_lensInfo;

// Call the request

CrError err = SCRSDK::RequestLensInformation(handle);

When the OnWarning callback notifies you of success:

CrInt32u numOfList= 0;
SCRSDK::CrLensInformation* list = nullptr;

CrError err = SCRSDK::GetLensInformation(

handle,
&list,
&numOfList);

if (CR_SUCCEEDED(err) && 0 < numOfList) {

for (int i = 0; i < numOfList; ++i) {

auto item = new SCRSDK::CrLensInformation();
item->normalizedValue = list[i].normalizedValue;
item->focusPosition = list[i].focusPosition;
m_lensInfo.push_back(item);
}
// release of list pointer
SCRSDK:: ReleaseLensInformation (handle, list);

The information retrieved by GetLensInformation() can be used to know the Focus position
(meter/feet).

Example:

// Example of a case where CrDeviceProperty_FollowFocusPositionCurrentValue is

0x00001234
CrInt32u followVal = 0x00001234;

// If Focal distance unit is “Feet”

CrInt32u unitFeet = SCRSDK::CrLensInformationType_Feet;

for (int i=0; i < (m_lensInfo.size() - 1); ++i) {

if (m_lensInfo[i]->type != unitFeet) continue;
if ((m_lensInfo[i + 1]->normalizedValue <= followVal) &&
(followVal <= m_lensInfo[i]->normalizedValue)) {
printf(“Follow Focus Position between %d and %d\n”,
m_lensInfo[i]->focusPosition, m_lensInfo[i + 1]->focusPosition);
break;
}
