Specification Notes

Resolution
Full resolution: Unless indicated otherwise, the given numbers of pixels refer to the sensor's full
resolution. This is also the maximum possible resolution for an image.
Default resolution: For some cameras, a slightly decreased resolution is set as the default after
camera restart or power up (if one of the factory setups is used). In these cases the default settings
for OffsetX and OffsetY may be greater than zero. The decreased resolution is referred to as the
"default resolution". If implemented, the default resolution is indicated in the tables below, in addition
to full resolution.
When a camera is set to default resolution, you can change to full resolution by making sure OffsetX
and OffsetY are set to zero and by setting the Width and Height parameters to the maximum values.
Max. Frame Rate
"Max. Fame Rate" refers to the maximum allowed frame rate that is possible at default resolution.
If no default resolution is implemented, the maximum allowed frame rate refers to camera operation
at full resolution.
Some cameras can achieve higher frame rates:
If a camera can be set from normal to fast sensor readout mode.

Maximum allowed frame rates are indicated for both sensor readout modes (see
on page 8). If only one maximum allowed frame rate is indicated it implies normal sensor read-
out.
Some cameras (see

DeviceLinkThroughputLimit is increased from the default value to approximately
380000000 B/s (HiDLTL condition).
For more information about the sensor readout mode, see Section 6.6.1.1 on
For information about enabling and configuring the DeviceLinkThroughputLimit parameter, see
Section 7.19 on page 322.
