IO_OUTP_CTRL 1-4
The outputs (Output mode, Polarity) are controlled via 4 advanced feature
registers (see Table 39: Output configuration register on page 103).
The Polarity field determines whether the output is inverted or not. The out-
put mode can be viewed in the table below. The current status of the output
can be queried and set via the PinState.
It is possible to read back the status of an output pin regardless of the output
mode. This allows for example the host computer to determine if the camera
is busy by simply polling the BUSY output.
Register Name Field Bit Description
0xF1000320 IO_OUTP_CTRL1 Presence_Inq [0] Indicates presence of this
feature (read only)
--- [1..6] Reserved
Polarity [7] 0: Signal not inverted
1: Signal inverted
--- [8..10] Reserved
Output mode [11..15] Mode
see Table 40: Output routing
on page 104
--- [16..30] Reserved
PinState [31] RD: Current state of pin
