Configuration of the camera
Additional Format_7
modes
Firmware 3.x adds additional Format_7 modes. Now you can add some special
Format_7 modes which aren’t covered by the IIDC standard. These special modes
implement
binning
and
sub-sampling
.
To stay as close as possible to the IIDC standard the Format_7 modes can be
mapped into the register space of the standard Format_7 modes.
There are visible Format_7 modes and internal Format_7 modes:
•
At any time only 8 Format_7 modes can be accessed by a host computer.
•
Visible Format_7 modes are numbered from 0 to 7.
•
Internal Format_7 modes are numbered from 0 to 31.
Format_7 Mode_0 represents the mode with the maximum resolution of the
camera: this visible mode cannot be mapped to any other internal mode.
The remaining visible Format_7 Mode_1 ... Mode_7 can be mapped to any inter-
nal Format_7 mode.
Example
To map the internal Format_7 Mode_19 to the visible Format_7 Mode_1, write
the decimal number 19 to the above listed F7MODE_1 register.

Note
For available Format_7 modes see
sible Format_7 modes to F7M1...F7M7
Setting the F7MODE_x register to:
•
-1 forces the camera to use the factory defined mode
•
-2 disables the respective Format_7 mode (no mapping is
applied)
After setup of personal Format_7 mode mappings you have to
reset the camera. The mapping is performed during the camera
startup only.
