To prevent damage on the hardware due to high/low temperatures, the camera is equipped
with an emergency shutdown. The DeviceTemperatureStatusTransitionSelector (Catego-
ry: Device Control) feature allows you to select di󰀨erent thresholds for temperatures:
NormalToHigh: freely programmable value
HighToExeeded: xed value (camera shutdown if exceeded)
ExeededToNormal: freely programmable value, temperature for error-free re-ac-
tivation of the camera.
NormalToUnderrun (.I / SWIR models): xed value (camera shutdown if value
falls below, or camera does not start image acquisition)
In the DeviceTemperatureStatusTransition feature, the temperatures for the programma-
ble temperature transitions are set.
The Event DeviceTemperatureStatusChanged is always generated when DeviceTem-
peratureStatus changes.
If the temperature rises above the value set at HighToExceed
, the DeviceTemperatureEx-
ceeded feature is set to True, the image recording is stopped, and the LED is set to red.
If the temperature falls below the NormalToUnderrun value, the DeviceTemperatureUn-
derrun function is set to True, image recording is stopped and the LED lights up red.
For further use, the camera must disconnected from the power supply after cooling down
or heating a device reset should be carried out.
The su󰀩cient cooling / heating is recognizable when the event DeviceTemperatureSta-
tusChanged (Device Temperature < ExceededToNormal) / (Device Temperature > Nor-
malToUnderrun) is output.
