Test Pattern:
A Test-Pattern mode is provided to adjust display properties and/or for diagnostic purposes
(for example, to verify the core is providing a valid output). The Test-Pattern mode will not persist over a
power cycle.
Off
: No test-pattern is provided in this mode. This is the normal operation mode.
Ramp
: In this mode a ramp test pattern is provided at the analog and digital data channels. This
test pattern is shown in Figure 26.
TEC Control:
Enable /Disable TEC control. The TEC set point is set at the factory to 20°C. The camera
will maintain this temperature unless the environmental temperature is too extreme, in which case the set
temperature will be stepped to the next set point (lower if the environment is too cold, higher if the
environment is too warm). The actual environmental tempeeratures at which this step will take place is
dependent on the mounting configuration which determines the heat exchange between the camera and the
environment.
Lens Control:
Functions in the Lens Control section are not part of the Tau SWIR initial release.
Save Settings
: After using the FLIR Camera Controller GUI to change Camera modes and settings to
desired values, use the Save Settings button to store many of the current selections as new power-up
defaults. The next time the camera is powered; the camera will remember these saved settings. If the Save
Settings button is not clicked, any changes made via the FLIR Camera Controller GUI will be valid only
for the current session. Cycling power to the camera will revert to the previously saved settings.
