9 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS The DFW-SX900/X700 differs from the conventional analog camera in that no video signals will be output by just supplying power. It will start operating when designated commands are written in the CSR (Control & Status Register) specified in the 1394-based Digital Camera Specification Ver.
10 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS Gain Used for setting the gain of the video signal amplifier. The gain can be set to 180 steps between the standard gain and maximum +18 dB. (1 step is not 0.1 dB.) By setting AUTO to ON, the gain will be automatically adjusted to the appropriate exposure.
11 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS Gamma Used for setting gamma compensation to OFF, ON (1), or ON (2). OFF : Outputs CCD signals for image processing linearly. ON (1) : For obtaining natural gradation taking into account the characteristics of the monitor.
12 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS Y/Cr/Cb → R/G/B conversion The DFW-SX900/X700 outputs Y/Cr/Cb signals as digital image signals. The equations for converting these signals to R/G/B signals are as follows. R ≈ 1.4022Cr + Y B ≈ 1.7710Cb + Y G ≈ Y – 0.
13 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS Operations in Normal Mode Exposure and readout are repeated according to the VD pulses inside the camera. As the operating timing of the camera differs according to the frame rate, it is described below. The frame rates are shown in the following table.
14 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS When the output frame rate is reduced (3.75 fps of DFW-SX900, 7.5 fps of DFW-X700), images will be read out from the CCD for every VD. However, as every other image is used, the images read out during the isochronous output period will not be used.
15 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS When the frame rate is reduced in the extended exposing mode, the timing will be as follows. Operations in Extended Exposing Mode (In the Case of 2 Frames) When Frame Rate is Reduced Time until Data is Read Out and Output Period of Data Camera DFW-SX900 (3.
16 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS External Trigger Shutter This function is useful for the following cases. When capturing the images according to an arbitrary external trigger When capturing the images.
17 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS Internal operations of camera in trigger shutter operation mode An about 3 µ s width SUB pulse is generated immediately after trigger is input. Signals accumulated in the CCD sensor until then are eliminated, after which exposure is started.
18 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS External Trigger Shutter Operations When Frame Rate is Reduced The trigger acceptance prohibition period continues until all of CCD image has been transferred out of the camera. When the transfer frame rate is reduced (3.
19 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 FUNCTIONS Partial Scan Mode The partial scan mode is a function for outputting part of the full images a region of interest on the whole image.

38 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 The DFW-SX900/X700 operates synchronously with internal pulses called VD. VDs are reference signals inside the camera and cannot be observed from outside the camera. Even if commands are set to the CSR of the camera, it does not mean that they become effective the instant they have been written.
39 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 One Shot CMD and actual operation timing As shown in the following figure, it takes at least about 1 V for the actual isochronous transmission to start after the One Shot command (CSR F0F0061Ch) has been set to the CSR of the camera.
40 DFW-SX900 DFW-X700 As shown in the following figure, it takes at least about 50 ms for external trigger signals to be not received after the Trigger OFF command has been set to the CSR (F0F00830h) of the camera.
