Do all captured images appear to be completely black or very dark.
No
Use the Camera Configuration Tool Plus (CCT+) to set the camera for test image one.
Capture several images and carefully check the pixel values in each image. (Most frame
grabbers include software tools that allow you to see the individual values of each pixel in
the image and histograms that display distributions of the pixel values in the image.)
The pixel values in your captured test image should be exactly as described in Section
3.10. Also, if you capture several test images, the pixel values should be the same in

Troubleshooting
No
A parameter error was present.
A parameter error occurs when a
parameter is set out of range, a
parameter is set to a value that is not
allowed or when parameters that
depend on each other are set to
conflicting values. If you are setting
the camera's parameters by using
binary commands to write to
registers, make sure you check the
min, max and increment fields of
each register before you set the
parameter value.
