Operation and Features

3.11 Camera Temperature

series cameras include a sensor that measures the temperature on one of the electronic
L100
k
boards inside of the camera. The sensor's readings allow you to monitor whether ventilation is
working correctly.
You can use the Read Camera Temperature binary command to read out the current temperature
(see Section 4.2.7.9).

3.12 Camera Status

series cameras monitor their status by performing a regular series of self checks. The
L100
k
current status of a camera can be viewed in several ways:
• with the Camera Configuration Tool Plus (see Section 4.1). You use the Status indicator in
the Camera Information parameter group to see if any error codes are present.
• with binary commands. You can use the Camera Status command (see Section 4.2.9) to
check if the camera has detected any errors.
• by checking the LED on the back of the camera. If certain error conditions are present, the
LED will flash (see Section 6.1).
