This program assumes that you have a Sony EVI-D30 or EVI-D31 camera connected through the standard VISCA cable to serial port 1 thru 8 of your computer.

Everything you need for basic control is in the source code.

The program can query the camera, so you can read the current camera settings and make the program respond accordingly. The Backlight and Autopan functions use camera inquiry and can be seen in the cInqBacklight or cInqPanTiltPos subroutines in the source code. All you need is a little time and the VISCA controller documentation, readily available on the Web.

Information on the Sony EVI-D30 and EVI-D31 cameras can be found many places on the Internet. One such place is one of my pages located at:

If you have any comments or questions concerning the source code please contact J3Soft (j3soft@j3soft.com).

This program is still under development. One of my future plans is to incorporate a preview window in the program using Winnov video capture cards and the OCX files provided by Winnov.
