In addition, the two elements of the analog processing chain can be adjusted separately in
calibrated and uncalibrated mode. When changing analog processing values between the
two video mode settings, the camera automatically adjusts the settings according to the
video mode as well as the direction the camera is operating in.
C3 Startup
When the camera is first started, it must perform several actions before it is ready for
imaging. This startup routine takes approximately 10 seconds, and follows this sequence:
1. Initializes the camera and all internal hardware.
2. Loads the last settings saved to non-volatile memory, including the last set of video
correction coefficients, if previously saved.
3. Restores user settings if previously saved, otherwise factory settings.
4. Performs a memory test and voltage test and reports an error if any occurred.
After this startup sequence is complete, the camera will return either the prompt "OK>" if
no error occurred, or an error code if a problem has been discovered.
C4 Saving and Restoring Settings
The camera provides a number of commands for restoring, storing, and saving settings.
To restore the original factory settings, use the command
restore_factory_settings
. The FPN and PRNU coefficients are reset to 0.
To save all current user settings to EEROM, use the command
write_user_settings
. The camera will automatically restore the saved user settings
when powered up.

All commands have short
forms. See the
Communications Protocol
for the complete syntax
and command reference.
