Notes

• Use the API names in each <item> to look up commands in this documentation.
• The count attribute may not equal the number of <item> elements, and a name can appear more than once. De-duplicate the names before use. Verified on a camera running 5.3.1 firmware, count was 111 and the list contained 90 unique names, with duplicates.
• This is the recommended way to check whether a command exists before calling it. Command sets differ by device type and firmware (for example, plate database commands on v2.1 cameras).
