Version information inquiry

The presence of each of the following features can be queried by the 0 bit of the

corresponding register.

This register holds information about the node_hw_version, the node_sw_ver-

sion and the node_spec_ID (camera type). μC version and FPGA version are bcd-

coded, which means that e.g. firmware version 0.85 is read as 0x0085.

The FPGA type ID (= camera type ID) identifies the camera type with the help of

the following list:

Note

Advanced features should always be activated before accessing

them.

• Currently all registers can be written without being acti-

vated. This makes it easier to operate the camera using

Directcontrol.

• Allied Vision reserves the right to require activation in

future versions of the software.
