Setting functions
7.2.1
Bit allocation. BA=0, BA=1
This command sets the output to 8-bit or 10-bit
7.2.2
Partial scan. SC=0 through 4
The CCD scanning format can be selected between full or partial scanning. With partial
scanning only the vertical central part of the CCD sensor is read out with a higher frame rate.
The partial scan is done by a fast dump read out of the lines in the vertical CCD register down
to the top of the partial image. This central part of the image is read out with normal speed.
The lines below the partial image are read out and dumped with a high speed.
Note: The color sequence for CB-040 MCL differs in partial scan modes. Refer to chapter
6.1.2.
7.2.3
Vertical binning VB=0, VB=1
This function is only for CM-040MCL camera.
With V binning the pixel charge from 2 adjacent lines are added together in the horizontal
CCD register. It is done by double pulses to the vertical CCD register. V Binning cannot be
used together with partial scanning.
7.2.4
Shutter mode. SM=0 and SM=1
With SM=0 this function selects the shutter from the 10 fixed steps (SH=0 through SH=9).
With SM=1 from programmable in 595 steps (PE=2 through PE=596).
7.2.5
Trigger input select. TI=0, TI=1.
This function selects the trigger input to be through Camera Link (TI=0), or as TTL through the
12 pin Hirose connector (TI=1).
7.2.6
Trigger polarity. TP=0, TP=1.
The active trigger polarity is normally low (TP=0). It can be inverted to active high (TP=1).
7.2.7
Gain level. GA=-84 t336
GA=0 is 0dB gain, which is the normal working point. The range is from -3 dB to +12 dB.
7.2.8
Black level. BL=0 through BL=1023
Black level (or set-up level) will set the video level for black. Factory setting is 32 LSB for 10-
bit or 8 LSB for 8-bit.
7.3
Save and Load Functions.
The following commands are for storing and loading camera settings in the camera EEPROM.
Load settings.
LD.
This command will load previously stored settings to the camera. 3 user settings can be
stored in the camera EEPROM. 1 factory setting is also stored in the camera. The settings
stored in the last used user area are used as default settings at power up.
Save Settings.
SA.
This command will store the actual camera settings to 1 of the 3 user areas in the camera
EEPROM.
EEPROM Area.
EA.
If received, the camera will return
the last used user area number.
