Save parameters in flash (X)
By means of the command X=1 all parameter values are stored into a system
file within the flash memory. After a re-start they are automatically restored.
However, neither new recorded correction images, nor modified set values (J
and K for all valid S) are stored and will therefore be lost after the camera is
switched off.
Upload a file to flash (Q)
The data in the flash memory are managed in a minimalist file system. Files are
identified via one byte. Valid file numbers are between 1 (0x01) and 254 (0xFE).
A further byte can be used to define the file type. There is no directory structure.
This results in a maximum possible number of 254 simultaneously stored files.
A lot of file numbers are already reserved by factory. For the correction data of
the Pearleye P-007 LWIR / Pearleye P-030 LWIR the file numbers 1, 32-96,
112-113, 128 are used. File numbers greater than or equal to 240 are reserved
for the system itself and will be not visible to the user.
For user data we recommend the file numbers between 16 (0x10) and 31 (0x1F).
The file system is administrated by serial commands (via RS232 or inband via
Gigabit Ethernet). There are different commands to control the file system:
GigE Vision feature name Description
SaveParameterToCameraFlash Saves the parameters into internal camera flash memory.
(X=<value> command)
1 = All parameter values are stored into a system file within the
flash memory of the camera.
