6.5. Other Functions.

The following functions are described under their short ASCII command name.

BA: Output bit allocation

With this function the number of bits in the Camera Link video output can be selected to 10 or

8.If 8 bit is selected it is the 8 most significant bits. For the bit allocation in Camera Link output, please refer to “5.4.5. Camera Link interface” and to fig. 7.

MN: Monitor mode

In normal mode (TR=0) and full frame (SC=0) the output command (OS=2) selects the composite analogue monitor video system. MN=1 for CCIR (50 FPS, 313 lines, 290 active lines). MN=0 for EIA (60 FPS, 263 lines, 240 active lines). The line frequency is 15.734 kHz. The video can be seen on a standard monitor with the command OS=2. SW1.1 can also be used. SW1.1 has highest priority.

TI: Trigger input select

To select the trigger input via Camera Link or pin #10 on Hirose connector as a TTL signal. The trigger input can also be selected by the internal switch, which has highest priority.

TP: Trigger polarity

This command can change the trigger polarity.

GS: Gamma select

To select gamma 1 or 0.45. 1 is linear relation between scene luminance and video output. 0.45 will expand the contrast in dark and compress the contras in light parts of the scene.

RP: Rear pot

Select master gain from the potentiometer or RS-232C. Sw1.4 has highest priority.

AU: Auto dual adjust

This function is used to calibrate the 2 channels to have same black level and gain.

ABA (Automatic Black Adjust) is a one-push function to align the black level for the 2 channels. AWA (Automatic White Adjust) is a one-push function to align the white level for the 2 channels.

BL: Black level master

BLF: Black level fine. Right

To adjust the black level for both channels and to fine adjust the R channel.

GA: Gain level master

GLR: gain level fine. Right

To adjust the gain for both channels and to fine adjust the R channel.

KL: Knee point master

KNF: Knee point fine. Right

To adjust the Knee point for both channels and to fine adjust the R channel.

Important notes on using this functions.

Adjusting the gain and black level settings should only be done when the camera is on its operation temperature. >30 minutes after power on.
