Camera Commands
8.7.1
cam_gain <gain>
Set the analog gain for the sensor. Gain can be read at any time, including when the auto exposure control is
enabled.
Value
Reset
Minimal
Maximal
gain
1000
1000 (1x 0dB)
252000 (252x 48dB)
Example:
// Example to set gain of 3x => input value should be 3000 = round (3 * 1000)
cam_gain 3000
8.7.2
cam_exposure <time>
Sets the exposure time/shutter width, in microseconds [µsec], in which sensor is exposed to light.
Remarks:
1.
The exposure time might be adjusted, if video mode is changed using video_mode command and the value
exceeds the maximum allowed value for the new video mode.
2.
Exposure can be read at any time, also when the auto exposure control is enabled.
Example:
//Example to set exposure of 10000usec
cam_exposure 10000
8.7.3
cam_info
Reports the min / max gain and exposure in the following order: minimum gain, maximum gain, minimum
exposure, maximum exposure, gain normalized multiplication factor (1000 = 1x)
Example:
Command: cam_info
Response: cam_info 1000 252000 75 33333 1000
