Page 13: Configuration
Configuration EoSens CL Camera Manual 6 Configuration The content of all EoSens registers is called a profile. There is space in non volatile memory for 17 profiles: The PowerUpProfile, 8 user profiles and 8 factory profiles. Any change of a specific register through the serial interface is immediately processed and written to the volatile part of the memory and gets lost when power goes down. -
