Parameters and commands
Dark value offset (W)
Dark value offset is an 8-bit parameter that is added to the pixel data. It adjusts
the dark level and avoids clipping of pixels to black in low-light situations. The
eight bits are aligned to the lowest significant bit of the 10-bit raw pixel data
from the sensor.
If the digital gain is not active (
G=0
), each increment of four increases the out-
put grey level just by one count.
Version information (V)
The command
V

Save parameters (X)

to store all parameter values into the embedded flash
memory. After a re-start they are automatically restored.
Parameter summary (Y)
The command
Y
shows a summary of all current parameter value settings.
Note
•
The effective image size and also the frame rate depend
on the corresponding camera settings such as e.g.
D
,
N
or
M
. Edge markers are only fully visible if all 1726 active
lines are output.
•
The digital gain setting
G
also applies to the test image,
but the FPN correction
C
is temporary disabled.
Note
Acquired FPN correction data is not stored and is, therefore,
lost after switch-off.
