+.TH sane\-dc240 5 "11 Jul 2008" "" "SANE Scanner Access Now Easy"
+.IX sane\-dc240
+.SH NAME
+sane\-dc240 \- SANE backend for Kodak DC240 Digital Camera
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B sane\-dc240
+library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that
+provides access to the Kodak DC240 camera. THIS IS EXTREMELY ALPHA
+CODE! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
+.SH "DEVICE NAMES"
+The current version of the backend only allows one camera to be
+connected. The device name is always "0".
+.SH CONFIGURATION
+The contents of the
+.I dc240.conf
+specify the serial port and baud rate to use. The
+.B baud
+rate specifies the maximum rate to use while downloading pictures. (The
+camera is always initialized using 9600 baud, then switches to the
+higher rate). On a 450MHz Pentium, I usually have no problems downloading
+at 115200 baud, though the camera sometimes has to resend packets due
+to lost characters. Results are better when
+the "interrupt-unmask flag" is set in the IDE driver
+.RI ( "hdparm \-u1" ).
+Supported baud rates are: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200.
+.PP
+The
+.B dumpinquiry
+line causes some information about the camera to be printed.
+.PP
+.B cmdrespause
+specifies how many usec (1,000,000ths of a second) to wait between
+writing the command and reading the result. 125000 seems to be the
+lowest I could go reliably.
+.PP
+.B breakpause
+specifies how many usec (1,000,000ths of a second) between sending the
+"back to default" break and sending commands.
+.PP
+Empty lines and lines starting with a hash mark (#) are
+ignored. A sample configuration file is shown below:
+.PP
+.RS
+port=/dev/ttyS0
+.br
+# this is a comment
+.br
+baud=115200

+.RE
+.PP
+.SH FILES
+.TP
+.I /etc/sane.d/dc240.conf
+The backend configuration file (see also description of
+.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
+below).
+.TP
+.I /usr/lib64/sane/libsane\-dc240.a
+The static library implementing this backend.
+.TP
+.I /usr/lib64/sane/libsane\-dc240.so
+The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that
+support dynamic loading).
+
+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+.TP
+.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
+This environment variable specifies the list of directories that may
+contain the configuration file. On *NIX systems, the directories are
+separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are separated by a
+semi-colon (`;'). If this variable is not set, the configuration file
+is searched in two default directories: first, the current working
+directory (".") and then in
+.I /etc/sane.d.
+If the value of the
+environment variable ends with the directory separator character, then
+the default directories are searched after the explicitly specified
+directories. For example, setting
+.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR
+to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories
+.IR "tmp/config",
+.IR ".",
+and
+.I "/etc/sane.d"
+being searched (in this order).
+.TP
+.B SANE_DEBUG_DC240
+If the library was compiled with debugging support enabled, this
+environment variable controls the debug level for this backend.
+A value of 128 requests maximally copious debug output; smaller
+levels reduce verbosity.

+.SH AUTHOR
+Peter S. Fales
+
+.PP
+This backend borrows heavily from the
+.BR sane\-dc210 (5)
+backend by Brian J. Murrell
+which is based somewhat on the
+.BR sane\-dc25 (5)
+backend by Peter Fales.
+.PP
+The manpage was largely copied from the
+.BR sane\-dc210 (5)
+manpage.
+
+.SH BUGS
+The major limitation that I know of is that the backend assumes
+the directory in the camera is 100dc240. Once the camera has
+taken more than 9999 pictures, the directory will increment to 101dc240.
+Not only should we check for the additional directory, but pictures may
+actually be found in multiple directories.
+.PP
+More general comments, suggestions, and inquiries about frontends
+or SANE should go to the SANE Developers mailing list
+(see
+.I http://www.sane\-project.org/mailing\-lists.html
+for details).
+You must be subscribed to the list, otherwise your mail won't be
+sent to the subscribers.
