5. Auto shutter control and absolute value shutter
control
The auto shutter control function cannot be used in the
Absolute value control mode. When Shutter is set to
AUTO, the Absolute value control mode is
automatically canceled.
6. Issues to be considered with partial activation,
and binning
With partial activation and binning, high-speed
operation of the CCD occurs.
If strong light comes into the image at the same time,
there may be some influence at the edges of the image.
In such a case then, adjust the lens so that only the
appropriate amount of light is allowed.
7. About the address range available for
BlockWrite operations
The camera performs BlockWrite operations against
consecutive registers. However, the range of the
addresses stored in these registers are limited.
Available address ranges for
BlockWrite operations
F0F00600h - F0F00614h
F0F00800h - F0F008fCh
If BlockWrite operations are performed outside the
ranges listed above, an address error will occur.
Meanwhile, the camera can perform BlockRead
operations for any sequence of consecutive registers
even though the registers are not available for
BlockWrite operations.
In Format 7 CSR, for example, BlockWrite operations
are prohibited because Format 7 CSR requires a
process for setting the register. However, BlockRead is
possible in Format 7 CSR.

8. Note on the isochronous control register
The BlockWrite operations are available in the range
F0F00600h to F0F00614h. However, setting the video
mode in this range is not recommended because it may
influence the variable range available for the features.
Following the process listed below is recommended
for setting the isochronous control register.
Set the isochronous channel/isochronous speed
Set the video format
Set the video mode
Set the frame rate
Confirm the variable range for the various features
Set the features (as needed) (F0F00800-F0F008FCh)
Prepare for video data capture

9. About the Binning mode on the XCD-SX910CR/
X710CR
On a camera using a color CCD, the color information
is lost during the process of mixing pixels. Because of
this, a color CCD camera cannot output a correct
image in the Binning mode. Use the Binning mode
only when you intend to perform something needing a
high frame rate, such as focus adjustment.
