3.15 Configuration Sets and Memory Channels
A configuration set is a group of values that contains all
of the register settings needed to control the camera.
There are two basic types of configuration sets: the
work configuration set and the factory configuration set.
Work Configuration Set
The work configuration set contains the camera’s
current register settings and thus determines the
camera’s performance, that is, what your image
currently looks like. When you change settings by
writing to the camera’s registers, you are making
changes to the work configuration set. The work
configuration set is located in the camera’s volatile
memory and the settings are lost if the camera is reset or if power is switched off. The work
configuration set is usually just called the “work set” for short.
Factory Configuration Set
When a camera is manufactured, a test setup is performed on the camera and an optimized
configuration is determined. The factory configuration set contains the camera’s factory optimized
configuration. The factory set is saved in a permanent file in the camera’s non-volatile memory.
The factory set can not be altered and since it is stored in non-volatile memory, it is not lost when
the camera is reset or switched off. The factory configuration set is usually just called the “factory
set” for short.
3.15.1 Saving Configuration Sets
As mentioned above, the work configuration set is stored in the camera’s volatile memory and the
settings are lost if the camera is reset or if power is switched off.

cameras can save the
current work set values in the volatile memory to reserved areas in the camera’s non-volatile
memory called “memory channels.” Configuration sets saved to memory channels in the non-
volatile memory are not lost at reset or power off. There are three memory channels available for
saving configuration sets - channel 1, channel 2 and channel 3. A configuration set saved in a
memory channel is commonly referred to as a “user configuration set” or “user set.”
Saving the current work set to one of the memory channels is a three step process:
1. Make changes to the camera’s settings until the camera is operating in a manner that you
would like to save.
2. Set the value of the Memory Save Channel control register (see page 4-18 ) to 1, 2, 3. This
will select the channel were the configuration set will be saved.
3. Set the value of the Memory Save control register (see 4-17 ) to 1. When you set this value to
1, the camera will save the current register settings to the designated memory channel.
Saving a configuration set to one of the memory channels will overwrite any set that was
previously saved to the selected channel.
