Quick parameter change timing modes
You can choose between the following update timing modes:
• Standard Parameter Update Timing (slightly modified from previous
PIKE cameras)
•New: Quick Format Change Mode
For a detailed description see Chapter Quick parameter change timing modes
on page 151.
Standard Parameter Update Timing
The camera behaves like older firmware versions without this feature. The
UpdActive flag has no meaning.
Quick Format Change Mode
This mode behaves like Standard Parameter Update Timing mode with the
following exception:
An already started image transport to the host will not be interrupted, but
an already started integration will be interrupted.
Register Name Field Bit Description
0xF1000570 PARAMUPD_TIMING Presence_Inq [0] Indicates presence of this fea-
ture (read only)
--- [1..5] Reserved
UpdActive [6] Update active
Set to 1 and set UpdTiming to 1
to switch on Quick Format
Change Mode.
--- [7..23] Reserved
UpdTiming [24..31] Update timing mode
O: Standard Parameter Update
Timing is active
If set to 1 and also UpdActive is
set to 1: Quick Format Change
Mode is active
Integration is stopped.
Set your parameters.
Then set UpdActive to 0: end of
sequence. All new parameters
are written to FPGA. Integration
is done now with new parame-
ters.
