Hints
For the image-transfer, the serial port is the bottleneck, because a lot of data has to be
transmitted. To reduce this bottleneck, the SCB-1 support baud rates up to 921600 baud.
However, most PCs support only up to 115200 baud and require special extension cards for
higher baud rates (a high speed RS-232 extension card is optional available, see page 27).
For this high baud rates, short RS-232 cables are necessary (below 2m is recommended).
If operating commands work fine, but image transfer does not, you may try to reduce the
transmit block size in the Picture View Menu (at the cost of transfer speed). At very high baud
rates, you can also set the transmit size to 4K (default is 1K) to further optimize the speed.
To change the SCB-1 baud rate temporarily, use the commands in the Extra Menu. If the
selected baud rate works, you can store this setting permanently in the SCB-1-EEPROM by
selecting MEMORIZE CURRENT BAUDRATE.
Another option in the PICTURE VIEW Menu is to select how the image is displayed on the
screen. The NATIVE setting provides the best quality, but may be too large to fit onto the
screen. The other two settings resize the picture to fit onto the screen. They differ in quality
and in the speed of resizing (e.g. when the window size is changed). The resized image can
also be stored in a file, which is useful if you do not need the full resolution.
It is recommended to use the true-color (24bit) mode of your PC
(selectable in Properties -> Display in the Windows Start-menu) for best picture reproduction.
