62 Serial Interface: How to Control the Camera
Notes:
• When subtracting a digital value from the digital
video signal the output can no longer reach its
maximum. Use the
ssg command to correct for this
where:
•
ssg value =
max output value
max output val ue - ssb value
• See the following section for details on the
ssg
command.
• Entering a large value background will cause the
camera to digitally clip the output image.
• On a color camera the ssb command can be used
to perform offset adjustment on each color. This
may be required as the gain on each color is
typically different.
• On the monochrome model, use the ‘all tap’ setting
(0) to adjust the overall offset.
• Note that ssb can only be used to DECREASE
offset. The sao command can be used to globally
increase offset.
