Introduction

This manual describes the installation and functions of the CMOS industrial camera LOGLUX

 i5  CL

made  by  KAMERA  WERK  DRESDEN  GmbH,  as  well  as  the  software  and  hardware  components
which are additionally required for a camera system.

The  below  chapters  will  enable  the  user  to  operate  a  camera  system  including  a  CMOS  industrial
camera LOGLUX

 i5 CL, and to fully exploit the camera functions by applying the supplied LOGLUX

LuxWare  configuration  tool.  Furthermore,  the  commands  referred  to  herein  permit  the  ambitious
programmer to configure the camera at CMOS sensor register level by means of the integral terminal.

Note:

This manual  was  drawn  up  with  utmost  care.  However,  since  the  unit  is  constantly  being
improved,  no  guaranty  can  be  given  that  the  information  is  complete  and  correct  at  any
time. We have made great efforts to provide you with  a  perfect  product  but in view  of  the
numerous computer configurations it is impossible to guarantee that your computer or your
application works trouble-free in all configurations and combinations.
We cannot guarantee that a specific application purpose is served. Within the framework of
the  statutory  regulations,  any  liability  for  direct  damage,  indirect  damage  and  third-party
damage  resulting  from  the  purchase  or  operation  of  a  LOGLUX  i5  CL  CMOS  industrial
camera  is  excluded.  Liability  in  cases  of  intent  and  gross  negligence  remains  unaffected
therefrom. In any case, our liability is limited to the purchase price of the unit.

This  manual  is  protected  by  copyright.  All  rights  created  thereby,  in  particular  the  right  to  translate,  reprint  or  lecture,  to  use
figures or tables, to broadcast, microfilm or reproduce the contents or parts thereof in any other way or to store it partly or wholly
in data processing systems, are reserved. Also in individual cases, the manual or parts thereof are permitted to be reproduced
only within the scope of the Copyright Act of the Federal Republic of Germany of September 9, 1965 as amended. As a rule, a
