Hi, I ask for help. There is a task: to create control of three cameras from one console using the RS-485 protocol via the COM port of the PC. I can not write a patch to send a control signal through the “serial” node. Who knows help with the patch.
You’ll want to use a Serial DAT to connect to a COM port.
docs.derivative.ca/SerialDAT_Class
This will receive data.
You can use the
.send()
and
.sendBytes()
methods on that DAT to send your commands.
This example works in the other direction: device → TouchDesigner.
But hopefully gives you some ideas.
You’ll also have to know the exact protocol your camera device is using.
Cheers,
Rob.
