3.3 Modifying Camera Registers
The camera modes and functions are set and stored by internal camera registers. The internal
registers are initialized during power-up or by the software. During power-up, the contents of the
EEPROM are copied to the registers, after which, the camera is ready to use.
The camera is factory-preset to operate in free-running mode with an 8-bit resolution and a linear
response. The corresponding values in each camera may be different from the factory values due to
the fine-tuning of each module.
To avoid problems with modified presets and to ensure the restoration of original values, we
recommend that you save the factory presets to an external storage media. To save and restore
the values, use the PFRemote.exe. Refer to Saving and Loading EEPROM Settings on page 37 for
further information on the PFRemote.
We also recommend that you do not alter the custom calibration settings available through the
calibration dialog box (Camera
→
Calibration). Consult DALSA support at
before altering calibration values.
The basic settings of the camera can be modified and stored (in the EEPROM) by the user. You
can modify all parameters via the PFRemote software interface. After testing the new parameters,
they can be stored in the EEPROM. We recommend that you store your parameters in the same
way as the factory presets.
