3.1 First Power Up Camera Settings
When the camera is powered up for the first time, it operates using the following factory
settings:
Internal forward color scanning direction
Maximum line rate: 32 kHz (2k) or 17 kHz (4k)
0dB calibrated analog gain and offset.
Factory calibrated FPN and PRNU coefficients enabled.
8 bit output
9600 baud rate
Exposure mode 2: Internal sync and exposure control.
RGB color selection
Camera Link mode 5: Base configuration, RGB, 8 bit output.
Note: The FPN and PRNU coefficients are factory calibrated at a TBD kHz line rate
and 0dB gain setting 0.
3.2 Rebooting the Camera
The command rc reboots the camera. The camera starts up with the last saved settings
and the baud rate used before reboot. Previously saved pixel coefficients are also
restored.
3.3 Baud Rate
Purpose: Sets the speed in bps of the serial communication port.
Syntax:
sbr m
Syntax Elements: m
Baud rate. Available baud rates are: 9600 (Default), 19200,
57600, and 115200.
Notes: Power-on rate is always 9600 baud.
The rc (reset camera) command will not reset the camera to the
power-on baud rate and will reboot using the last used baud rate.
Example:
sbr 57600
3.4 Select Cable
Purpose: Sets the cable parameters.
Syntax:
scb m
Syntax Elements: m
Output compare value. Available values are: 0 to 255.
Notes: In medium configuration, both cables must be the same length.
Only one copy of this setting is saved in the camera (rather than
with each setting).
On the
lfs (load factory settings) command the cable length will
be set to the factory default of 100.
The cable parameter is a relational value. Increase the value for
longer cables, and decrease it for shorter ones.
Adjust the value until the test pattern (SVM 1) is clean.
