Command List
B.1 All Available Commands
As a quick reference, the following table lists all of the commands available to the camera user. For
detailed information on using these commands, refer to
Chapter 4.
Parameter types are identified as:
t = tap id
i = integer value
f = real number
s = string
m = member of a set
Syntax Command Params Description
ccf
correction
calibrate FPN
Performs FPN calibration and eliminates FPN by
subtracting away individual pixel dark current.
clm
camera link
mode
m
Output mode to use:
2: Base configuration, 2 taps, 8 bit output
3: Base configuration, 2 taps, 10 bit output
cpa
calculate PRNU
algorithm
i i
Performs PRNU calibration according to the selected
algorithm.
The first parameter is the algorithm where i is:
