Activating" The Factory Set File; Which Configuration Set File Will Load At Startupor At Reset - Basler L800k User Manual

3.15.3 "Activating" the Factory Set File

As explained on page 3-43, a factory configuration set containing an optimized set of parameters
is created when the camera is manufactured. The factory set is saved in a permanent file in the
camera's non-volatile memory. The factory set file can not be altered or deleted and is not lost
when the camera is switched off.
You can activate the factory set file in a manner that is similar to activating one of your saved user
set files. Activating the factory set file is a good way to return the camera to normal operation if
you have severely misadjusted some of the camera's parameters and you are not sure how to
recover.
When you activate the factory set, two things happen:
• The values from the factory set file are copied into the work set in the camera's volatile mem-
ory. The camera will now use the factory set values that were copied into the work set.
• A link is created between the factory set file and the camera's volatile memory. The values in
the factory set will now be automatically copied into the work set whenever the camera is
powered up or reset.
Activating the Factory Set File
You can activate the factory set file with the Camera Configuration Tool Plus (CCT+) or by using
binary read/write commands from within your own application to set the camera's bulk data control
and status registers (CSRs).
With the CCT+
With the CCT+ (see Section 4.1), you use the File Name Select parameter and the Activate User
Set parameter in the User Set Files parameters group to activate the factory set file.
By Setting CSRs
You can activate the factory set file by writing values to the bulk data CSR for configuration sets.
The bulk data "activate" process is used to activate the factory set file.
Section 4.2.3
explains using read/write commands.
3.15.4 Which Configuration Set File Will Load at Startup
or at Reset?
On the initial wake-up after delivery, the camera copies the factory configuration set into the work
set.
At each subsequent power on or reset, the configuration set file that was last activated is copied
into the work set.
If there is no activated file, the factory set file will be copied into the work set.
