FPGA Status Inquiry
The camera has been programmed to detect several error conditions in its field programmable gate
array (FPGA). When an error condition is detected, a flag is set. The FPGA status inquiry register
allows you to read the error flags.
Register Base Address: 0x0C10
Field Name: Register Status Offset: 0x0000 Size: 1 Byte Type: Read only
Description: The integer value in this field indicates the status of this inquiry register:
0x00 = The register is not available
0x01 = The register is available
Field Name: FPGA Status Offset : 0x0001 Size: 1 Byte Type : Read only
Description: Each bit in this field specifies an error condition (see table below). Bit 0 is the least significant bit.
If a bit is set to 1, the error condition assigned to that bit is present. If the bit is set to 0, the error is
not present.
Bit Description
0 No FPGA firmware available.
1 FPGA firmware is available, but the firmware has failed to load.
2 The camera’s maximum line rate has been exceeded.
(Note: If you are operating the camera in ExSync programmable mode and you trigger
the camera faster than allowed, the camera will automatically ignore any trigger
signals that would cause a max line rate exceeded condition and this bit will not be
set.)
3 There is no ExSync signal.
