Phantom Camera Control Application - Help 75

If a cine, (a memory partition), has a cine file stored in it an informational window will

be display indicating that the "Cine n params have not been overwritten! Stored cine!"

however, all free cine segment settings will be changed.

All Cameras

The 'All cameras command' is only available in a multi-Phantom camera environment.

This command instructs set all the Phantom cameras, in the camera network, to

change their Live Control Panel settings to match the setting of the active camera.

NOTE

The Copy Parameters to.. command is not available with simulated cameras.

Load Settings

The 'Load Settings' command is used to load previously saved camera parameters. This

feature is extremely useful to the camera quickly, especially when regression tests need to

be performed. It could also be used to open a camera .STG file to either reset the camera

back to its factory default calibration settings or change the operational mode of the camera

into the camera's Flash memory.

Save Settings

The 'Save Settings' command is used to save the present camera settings to a setup, (.

STP), file for recall at a later date. It can also be used to save the CSR, (Current Session

Reference), calibrations to a .STG, (Serial Tag Number), file that can also be recalled at a

later date.

For a brief explanation of CSR, (Current Session Reference), see: Functional

Descriptions>Black Reference/Current Session Reference Adjustments.

All setup files saved to the hard drive can be recalled from the drive by using the Load

Settings command.

Delete All RAM Cines

The 'Delete All RAM Cines' command is used to delete cine file stored in a selected

camera's DRAM. This command is extremely useful when the selected camera has been

set to use the MultiCine feature.

Erase Flash Memory

The 'Erase Flash Memory' command is used to purge all cine files stored in a Phantom

camera's optionally installed integrated non-volatile Flash memory module or Phantom

CineMag.

Properties

The 'Properties' command, when selected, opens the Properties window displaying the

Camera Name, Serial Number, IP Address, Hardware Code, of the connected camera. It

also displays the Firmware, FPGA, and Kernel loaded in the camera. The 'Properties'

window will also display the size of DRAM image memory and non-volatile Flash memory

integrated in the selected Phantom camera.

The 'Properties' dialogue window also allows the end-user to add a secondary IP address to

the selected Phantom camera.

NOTE

Adding a secondary IP address to the camera does not remove the factory assigned IP

address.
