FAQ# 8:
What is partial scan and how do I use it ?
Partial Scan (PS) is special readout mode that allows the camera to read
a portion of the image while purging the remaining image data. This read and
purge process allows the camera to read the selected areas much faster than
reading the entire image. The start line register specifies the line on which to
begin image readout. The camera will purge all lines up to the start line, then
begin read out of the image data. The start line must not be set to 0. The stop
line register specifies the line on which to end image read out. The camera will
purge all lines after the stop line and until it reaches the last line on the sensor.
See Table 1.1 command 04 09, 04 0a and 04 0b for specifics.
Note that if you are using a color Bayer pattern sensor you will need to se-
lect your start line carefully so that the color processing hardware or soft-
ware receives the proper data. Note the HDTV sensor does not support par-
tial scan.
FAQ# 9:
What is binning and how do I use it?
Binning is a special readout mode where the camera 'bins' or combines
pixel data. The effect of binning is that the image will have lower resolution but
higher SNR, and by using vertical binning the image readout speed is improved.
The MMV cameras implement horizontal and vertical binning as separate con-
trols. The horizontal binning can be independently selected to bin 1, 2, or 4 pix-
els. The vertical binning can be selected to 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 lines.
See Table 1.1 command 04 05 for specifics.
FAQ# 10:
How does the trigger mode work?
The CC1 lines on the Camera Link interface control the trigger signal.
The polarity of the trigger can also be set.
See Table 1.1 command 04 03 and 04 0e for specifics.
