board can be adjusted with a single command set. Adjusting all four ADC channels requires four
command sets. The value is calculated according to the following equation:

Example: Set ADC Channel B to 5x Gain
Use these command/value pairs set the camera to 5x gain (you must write both MSB and LSB
values).

Note:
At any gain setting, the CCD imager is subject to blooming when it is over illuminated. To
remedy over illumination, reduce the integration time or select a higher f-stop value
3.6 Automatic Offset Control (AOC)
The AOC defines the digitized value of black for the camera. An ideal camera (no dark current, no
shot noise, etc.) in total darkness produces an image with all pixels equal to the AOC set point
value. This command allows you to control the AOC set point of the ADC video board. The two
ADC video boards in the 6M18 can each be controlled independently. Both channels on the single
board will be affected. Normally both boards are controlled with the same set point value. The
default value is 50 DN, or counts.
Example: Set ADC Board 1 (Channel A & B) AOC Set Point to 32
