NAME
qvrec − upload pictures to a Casio QV-10 digital camera.
SYNOPSIS
qvrec [ −D ttydevice ] [ −S speed ] [ −hv ] file1.cam file2.cam ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page applies to qvrec version 0.95 by ken-ichi HAYASHI and Jun-ichiro "itojun" ITOH.
qvrec allows the computer to upload CAM format pictures to the Casio QV-10 digital camera. Use entirely at your own risk. The CAM format is proprietary to Casio.
The camera can take up to 96 pictures, each at 320x240 24-bit pixels. It can be linked to the serial port of a computer using the supplied cable (see qvplay(1) for wiring changes needed for some machines).
If the camera does not respond, switch it off and then on again to do a ’hard’ reset. If the transfer times out, try using a slower speed.
All pictures should be 480x240 pixels.
OPTIONS
Options are
processed from left to right so it is important to set the
serial line and speed first.
−D ttydevice
Specify the serial port to use. Something like /dev/ttyS0 on Unix and COM1 on less sophisticated systems. The default is /dev/qvtty.
−S speed
Specify the baud rate for the transfer. Possible values are {normal, mid, high, top, light} or {1,2,3,4,5} for a corresponding {9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200} baud rate. ´light speed’ is supported in Linux, OS2, and Win NT/95. With Old Linux, use setserial(1) to achieve lightspeed e.g.
|
# set 57600baud |
qvrec -S top file1.cam
or
|
# set 115200baud |
qvrec -S light file2.cam
If you are using a PC/AT compatible computer, you will need a 16550A compatible serial controller to use more than 19200 baud (the ’mid’ setting).

−h |
Print a help message and exit. Report camera revision (?) | ||
|
−v |
Verbosely reports upload information on stderr. Reported information is uploaded bytes, not a filesize. |
