(6) Verify version string by reading serial no. and firmware versions (command: :v). The new
firmware version will be displayed as part of the version string. If the version is identical to
the expected the camera is ready to use for capturing images.
6.11 Horizontal pixelbinning
Pixelbinning adds the gray values of two adjacent pixels and outputs it as one pixel with double sensi-
tivity. In X-direction only 512 pixels are needed to cover the sensors full size.
To retain aspect ratio, every second line is discarded, if this feature is not disabled by setting Bit 8 of
register 6 (:r61xx) or vertical pixelbinning is activated.
Command: :r7010
This is an example for enabling this function. Depending on the wanted camera
mode it can be necessary to add additional bits of this register .
Response: ACK if enabled by separate command :A<n>
If discarding of every other line is not disabled (:r61xx), the contents of :r1 is doubled in camera logic.
To address a specific line on the sensor, the value written into :r1 has to be divided by two and :r3 must
not exceed 1ffh.
Example:
To output 256 lines from line 128, set r1 = 63 and r3 = 255 (=0xff).
6.12 Vertical pixelbinning
Vertical pixelbinning adds the gray values of two superimposed pixel of a column. This doubles sensi-
tivity and vertical field of view. To retain aspect ratio, in addition horizontal binning must be activated.
To activate, set bit 2 in register 6.
Command: :r6034
This is an example for enabling this function. Depending on the wanted camera
mode it can be necessary to add additional bits of this register .
Response: ACK if enabled by separate command :A<n>
6.13 Digital gain
Out of the 10-bits sensor data either the most significant 8 bits (gain 1), or bits 8..1 (gain 2), or the least
significant 8 bits (gain 4) are selected.
Command: :r700x x = 0: gain 1
x = 4: gain 2
x = 8: gain 4
This is an example for enabling this function. Depending on the wanted camera
mode it can be necessary to add additional bits of this register.
Response: ACK if enabled by separate command :A<n>
