Camera Command and Control Camera configuration is set through the serial interface. Please refer to “Serial Communication” on page 11 for the detailed protocol of the serial line. Note: 

        1. e2v commends to use E = 1 because of the limited EEPROM write cycles refer on page 12. 

        2. Camera gain (dB) = G x 0.047. A and B gain value are set in manufacturing but can be adjust if necessary. 

        3. Commands “H=2” and “H=4” will give 10 and 15 MHz data rate which are not compatible with Camera Link standard. Please don’t use it.

        4. The pinout corresponding to this option is fully compatible with the Camera Link standard. Table 7-1.

        5. The test pattern is useful to check if the interfacing is well done. The user should see a jagged image of 256 pixels steps. 

        6. The offset is set in manufacturing to balance both the channels. The initial setting is about 8 (~ 130 LSB). In some cases, the user may have to change it (for example if the ambient temperature is very high). 

        7. To be used for multi-camera synchronization. R
