3.4.17 Strobe Polarity
The strobe output on the rear panel of the camera provides a trigger pulse for the user. The
polarity of the strobe signal is set by this command. The strobe output can drive a 50-ohm load
and has a pulse width of 600 nanoseconds in older cameras. Cameras with software version 3.21
or higher have a strobe pulse width of 5µseconds; however the strobe pulse width is 600
nanoseconds in trigger double exposure mode.
TYPE IN: RESPONSE EXPLANATION
STP P
CR-LF Sets the polarity of the strobe output pulse to
positive.
STP N
CR-LF Sets the polarity of the strobe output pulse to
negative.
STP?
Queries the strobe output polarity.
3.4.18 Defect Conceal
Sensors are not perfect and have some areas that react differently to light. These imperfect
pixels are seen as a column that is different in intensity from its neighbors. The sensor is
characterized to locate defective columns. The defective column locations are then programmed
into the camera at the factory. When defect concealment is turned on, the camera replaces the
defective areas with information derived from nearby pixels making the defects disappear. This
image enhancement circuitry maximizes image uniformity.
TYPE IN: RESPONSE EXPLANATION
DEF ON
CR-LF Enables defect concealment.
DEF OF
CR-LF Disables defect concealment.
DEF?
Queries the state of defect concealment.
3.4.19 Save
TYPE IN: RESPONSE EXPLANATION
SAV
CR-LF Saves the current camera settings to EEPROM;
these settings will be recalled by performing a reset
or turning the camera power on.
3.4.20 Reset
TYPE IN: RESPONSE EXPLANATION
RST
CR-LF Resets the camera to the settings as last saved.
Removing and then restoring power to the camera
also performs a reset.
