Piranha Color Camera 26
Sensor Readout Direction (Mirroring Mode)
Purpose: Selects the camera’s horizontal readout direction.
Syntax:
smm i
Syntax Elements: i
Direction of sensor readout
0 = Left to right = 1 to n
1 =
Right to left = n to 1
Note: Pixel readout remains the same after a direction change.
Example:
smm 0
3.7 Data Output
Setting the Camera Link Mode
Purpose: Sets the camera’s Camera Link configuration, number of Camera
Link taps and data bit depth.
Syntax: clm m
Syntax Elements: m
5
= Base configuration, RGB, 8 bit output
9 = Base configuration, RGBY, 8 bit output
10 = Base configuration, RGBY, 12 bit output
14
= Medium configuration, 2xRGB, 8 bit output
15 = Medium configuration, RGBY, 8 bit output
16 = Medium configuration, RGBY, 12 bit output
Note: 
To obtain the current data mode, use the command
gcp
or
get clm
.

The bit patterns are defined by the Camera Link
Roadmap and the Camera Link Standard. Available
from the Knowledge Center on the Teledyne DALSA
site,

Example: clm 5
Setting the Camera’s Pixel Rate (Throughput)
Purpose: The
sot
command works in conjunction with the
clm
command (see previous command) and determines the pixel rate
of the camera.
Syntax: sot m
Syntax Elements: m
30 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 30
Mps
40 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 40
Mps
60 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 64
Mps
80 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 80
