6.2 Troubleshooting Using the Serial Interface
The following commands can aid in debugging. (The complete command protocol is
described in Appendix B and C.)
Communications
To quickly verify serial communications send the help command . The
h
command
returns the online help menu. If further problems persist, review Appendix C for more
information on communications.
Verify Parameters
To verify the camera parameters, send the
gcp
command. See section C6 Camera
Parameter Screen for a complete explanation of the camera parameters screen.
Verify Factory Calibrated Settings
To restore the camera’s factory settings and reset the FPN and PRNU coefficients to 0,
send the
rfs
command.
After executing this command send the
gcp
command to verify the factory settings.
Verify Timing and Digital Video Path
Use the test pattern feature to verify the proper timing and connections between the
camera and the frame grabber and verify the proper output along the digital processing
chain. See below.
Generating Test Patterns
The camera can generate a test pattern to aid in system debugging. Use the command
svm 2
to activate the test pattern. The test pattern is a ramp from 0 to 255 DN, then starts
at 0 again. Use the test pattern to verify the proper timing and connections between the
camera and the frame grabber.
