800h Brightness Brightness settings range from 0 to 1023 (0x000 to 
0x3FF).
Typical default = 725 (0x2D5). Settings below the 
default decrease the brightness and settings above 
the default increase the brightness.
The effect of a change in the brightness setting var-
ies depending on the gain setting. With the gain set 
to 0, changing the brightness setting by 4 results in 
a change of 1 in the digital values output by the cam-
era. With the gain set to 255, changing the bright-
ness setting by 1 results in a change of 1 in the 
digital values output by the camera.
80Ch
White_Balance The U_Value_or_B_Value setting adjusts the blue 
level in the captured images. The setting ranges 
from 16 (0x10) to 255 (0xFF). When set to 64 
(0x40), this register has no effect on the image. Set-
tings lower than 64 make the images less blue. Set-
tings greater than 64 make the images more blue.
U_Value_or_B_Value default = 112 (0x70)
The V_Value_or_R_Value setting adjusts the red 
level in the captured images. The setting ranges 
from 16 (0x10) to 255 (0xFF). When set to 64, this 
register has no effect on the image. Settings lower 
than 64 make the images less red. Settings greater 
than 64 make the images more red.
V_Value_or_R_Value default = 64 (0x40)
81Ch
Shutter Shutter settings range from 1 (0x001) to 4095 
(0xFFF).
Exposure time = (shutter register value) x 20 µs
Default = 498 (0x1F2) = 9.96 ms
820h
Gain Gain settings range from 0 (0x00) to 255 (0xFF).
A setting of 0x00 results in a gain of 1x (0dB) 
A setting of 0xFF results in a gain of 4x (12 db)
Default = 28 (0x1C) resulting in a gain of 2.5 dB
