Camera Link interface (01-04 or
Reserve control input (CC2)
The camera control signals
CC2
at the Camera Link connectors O2 and O4 (or con-
nector
CL1
) are reserved for future use.
Pixel order
Each frame in single channel mode (
S=0
, max. 193 full frames per second) is
transmitted from top left to bottom right, line per line. The diagram below shows
how the image is reconstructed from the ten Camera Link taps
A
–
J
.
Because every tap directly corresponds to a Camera Link port, the port labels are
reused as tap labels here. Each Camera Link clock cycle transmits one block of
ten pixels. Note that the number of lines may vary depending on the value of
parameter
N
.
In the high-speed dual channel modes (
S=1
or
S=3
, max. 386 full frames per sec-
ond) the image is split up vertically into two equal sized halves. Each half uses
its own Camera Link channel and the pixel data travels over the corresponding
connector pair.

Note
This mode is not available for the
Bonito CL-400B/C 200fps
cameras.
