NAME

6       sane-dc210 - SANE backend for Kodak DC210 Digital Camera
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  sane-dc210  library  implements  a  SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy)
10       backend that provides  access  to  the  Kodak  DC210  camera.  THIS  IS
11       EXTREMELY ALPHA CODE!  USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
12

DEVICE NAMES

14       The  current  version  of the backend only allows one camera to be con‐
15       nected.  The device name is always "0".
16

CONFIGURATION

18       The contents of the dc210.conf specify the serial port and baud rate to
19       use.  The baud rate specifies the maximum rate to use while downloading
20       pictures.  (The camera is always  initialized  using  9600  baud,  then
21       switches  to  the higher rate).  On my 90MHz Pentium, I usually have no
22       problems downloading at 115200 baud as long as the system is not exces‐
23       sively  busy  and  the "interrupt-unmask flag" is set in the IDE driver
24       (hdparm -u1).  Supported baud rates are: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and
25       115200.
26
27       The  dumpinquiry  line  causes  some information about the camera to be
28       printed.
29
30       cmdrespause specifies how many usec (1,000,000ths of a) between writing
31       the  command  and reading the result should be used. 125000 seems to be
32       the lowest I could go reliably.
33
34       breakpause is the time in 1,000,000ths of a usec  between  sending  the
35       "back to default" break sending commands.
36
37       Empty  lines  and  lines  starting with a hash mark (#) are ignored.  A
38       sample configuration file is shown below:
39
40              port=/dev/ttyS0
41              # this is a comment
42              baud=115200
43              dumpinquiry
44              cmdrespause=125000
45              breakpause=1000000

FILES

48       /etc/sane.d/dc210.conf
49              The  backend  configuration  file  (see  also   description   of
50              SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).
51
52       /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-dc210.a
53              The static library implementing this backend.
54
55       /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-dc210.so
56              The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems
57              that support dynamic loading).

ENVIRONMENT

61       SANE_CONFIG_DIR
62              This environment variable specifies the list of directories that
63              may contain the configuration file.  Under UNIX, the directories
64              are separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they  are  separated
65              by a semi-colon (`;').  If this variable is not set, the config‐
66              uration file is searched in two default directories: first,  the
67              current working directory (".") and then in /etc/sane.d.  If the
68              value of the environment variable ends with the directory  sepa‐
69              rator character, then the default directories are searched after
70              the explicitly  specified  directories.   For  example,  setting
71              SANE_CONFIG_DIR  to  "/tmp/config:"  would result in directories
72              tmp/config, ., and /etc/sane.d being searched (in this order).
73
74       SANE_DEBUG_DC210
75              If the library was compiled with debugging support enabled, this
76              environment  variable controls the debug level for this backend.
77              A value of 128 requests maximally copious debug output;  smaller
78              levels reduce verbosity.

88       This  backend  is  based  somewhat on the dc25 backend included in this
89       package by Peter Fales.
90
91       The manpage was copied from the dc25 backend  and  somewhat  edited  by
92       Henning Meier-Geinitz.
