Note: Pixel readout remains the same after a direction change.
Example:
smm 0
3.7 Data Output
Setting the Camera Link Mode
Purpose: Sets the camera’s Camera Link configuration, number of Camera
Link taps and data bit depth.
Syntax:
clm m
Syntax Elements:
m
5 = Base configuration, RGB, 8 bit output
9 = Base configuration, RGBY, 8 bit output
10 = Base configuration, RGBY, 12 bit output
14 = Medium configuration, 2xRGB, 8 bit output
15 = Medium configuration, RGBY, 8 bit output
16 = Medium configuration, RGBY, 12 bit output
Note:
• To obtain the current data mode, use the command
gcp or get clm.
• The bit patterns are defined by the DALSA Camera
Link Roadmap and the Camera Link Standard.
Example:
clm 5
Setting the Camera’s Pixel Rate (Throughput)
Purpose: In DALSA cameras, the sot command works in conjunction
with the clm command (see previous command) and
determines the pixel rate of the camera.
Syntax:
sot m
Syntax Elements:
m
30 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 32
Mps
40 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 40
Mps
60 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 64
Mps
80 = outputs pixels RGB (triplet) or RGBY (quad) at 80
Mps
Note:
• To obtain the current throughput, use the command
gcp or get sot.
• The bit patterns are defined by the DALSA Camera
Link Roadmap and the Camera Link Standard.
• Changes to the clm may affect this parameter.
Example:
sot 80
3.8 Set Color Correction
Purpose: Sets the color correction coefficients.
