System  Clock Frequency 

Default system clock frequency in almost every SVCam is set to 66.6 

MHz. To validate your system frequency refer to: 

specifications

. 

Using the system clock as reference of time, time settings can only be 
made in steps. In this example, the transfer rate is 66.7  MHz, thus 
resulting in steps of 15  ns.

7.2.7

 

Temperature Sensor 

A temperature sensor is installed on the mainboard of the camera.  

To avoid overheating, the temperature is constantly monitored and read. 
Besides software monitoring, the camera indicates high temperature by a 

red flashing LED. (See flashing LED codes) 

7.2.8

 

Read-Out-Control 

Read-Out-Control defines a delay between exposure and data transfer. 
Read-Out-Control is used to program a delay value (time) for the readout 
from the sensor. 

With more than one camera connected to a single computer, image 
acquisition and rendering can cause conflicts for data transfer, on CPU or 
bus-system.
