At present, only +the DC25 has been tested, but since the code is based on a DC20 +interface program, it is likely to work for that model also. +.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 dc25.conf +specify the serial port and baud rate to use. The 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 my 90MHz Pentium, I usually have no problems downloading +at 115200 baud as long as the system is not excessively busy and +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 dumpinquiry line causes some information about the camera to +be printed to stderr during startup. Note: This is not compatible +with saned, so make sure you don't have any dumpinquiry lines if you are +using saned (i.e. scanning on a remote machine using a +network). +.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 +.br +dumpinquiry +.RE +.PP +.SH FILES +.TP +.I /etc/sane.d/dc25.conf +The backend configuration file (see also description of +.B SANE_CONFIG_DIR +below). +.TP +.I /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane\-dc25.a +The static library implementing this backend. +.TP +.I /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/libsane\-dc25.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 +.IR /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_DC25 +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 "SEE ALSO" +.BR sane (7) + +.SH AUTHOR +Peter Fales, +.IR dc25\-devel@fales\-lorenz.net . + +.SH BUGS +Known bugs/limitations are: +.PP +I haven't figured out how to trigger an option reload following a "scan." +This causes problems when a new picture is snapped for example, the +slider that is used to select the picture from the camera may not be +updated immediately. +.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. |
