Get or Set the camera manual IRIS F-Number.
This command is only available when the IRIS of camera lens is configurable by F-Number. The IRIS F-Number with this URL is the manual IRIS F-number.
When the IRIS mode is AUTO, set the IRIS F-Number by this URL might not affect the camera exposure. User should follow camera exposure control mechanism to manage the camera IRIS.
When read, the camera IRIS F-number is returned. The return value is not the current IRIS F-Number if the IRIS mode is AUTO.Before set the manual IRIS F-Number, user should get the IRIS capability to have the valid range of F-Number. If the F-Number is out of range, the firmware pick up smaller but the closest F-Number to set the manual IRIS F-Number.
For example, the F-Number capability in a camera is F18, F20, F24, F34, F40. When the IRIS_NUMBER=F30 was sent the camera, the firmware pick up F24 to set the manual IRIS and return
