  • Page 3: Features

    Overview Features • Imager This camera uses a 1/2.8" “Exmor” CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) image sensor (approx. 2.14 million effective pixels) that supports FULL HD (high definition) to produce high- quality images. • ISP Using the newly developed image signal processor (ISP), the following images can be obtained. - Full HD 60fps output image - Low focal plane image using the high-speed readout of imager The following functions are provided. - Advanced Noise Reduction (NR), Wide Dynamic Range (WD) and Image Stabilizer functions - Newly provided tone correction (Visibility Enhancer) and Defog functions • Lens The camera is equipped with a bright lens with 20× optical zoom and F1.6 aperture (optical zoom + digital zoom = 240×). With consideration given environmental protection, this module is designed to operate with low power consumption and also incorporates lead-free and halogen-free circuit boards.

  • Page 31 Command List VISCA Communication Specifications VISCA packet structure The basic unit of VISCA communication is called a packet. The first byte of the packet is called the header and comprises the sender’s and receiver’s addresses. For example, the header of the packet sent to the FCB camera assigned address 1 from the controller (address 0) is hexadecimal 81h. The packet sent to the camera assigned address 2 is 82h. In the command list, as the header is 8X, input the address of the camera at X. The header of the reply packet from the camera assigned address 1 is 90h. The packet from the camera assigned address 2 is A0h. Some of the commands for setting cameras can be sent to all devices at one time (broadcast). In the case of broadcast, the header should be hexadecimal 88h. When the terminator is FFh, it signifies the end of the packet.
