How is sequence mode implemented?
There is a FIFO (first in first out) memory for each of the IIDC V1.31 registers
listed above. The depth of each FIFO is fixed to 32(dez) complete sets. Func-
tionality is controlled by the following advanced registers.
Note
Sequence mode requires not only firmware 3.x but also spe-
cial care if changing image size, Color_Coding_ID and frame
rate related parameters. This is because these changes not
only affect settings in the camera but also require corre-
sponding settings in the receiving software in the PC.
Caution
Incorrect handling may lead to
image corruption
or
loss of
subsequent images
.
Please ask for detailed support when you want to use this
feature.
