IEEE 1394 Controller (FireWire)
SCSI Controller
for IEEE 1394 interface respectively SCSI interface.
In order to stitch (bring together) the scanlines from adjacent cameras, the fields of vision of
the CCD-Cameras overlap slightly and a thin, black wire placed within the overlapped fields
of vision marks the virtual end, respectively start, of adjacent scanlines.
The scanlines from the individual cameras are mechanically aligned (by means of a small
electric motor) in the vertical direction. The Vertical Alignment and the Horizontal Stitching
may be done automatically by means of either SCANtest 6, Test 11 or as part the Scanner
Maintenance calibration procedure.
