Controlling image capture

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(dec) complete sets. Func-
tionality is controlled by the following advanced registers.
Note
Sequence mode requires special 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 corresponding 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 if you want to use
