  • Page 11: Initial Setup

    Initial setup EoSens GE Camera Manual 5 Initial setup The EoSens is delivered with initial parameters and therefore does not need to be configured via the serial link. 5.1 Serial number and firmware revision Serial number and firmware revision is provided in EoSens non volatile memory and can be read via software.

  • Page 12: User Profiles

    Initial setup EoSens GE Camera Manual 5.5 User profiles The user can store up to four User Profiles in non volatile memory. All load or write commands exchange data between the Camera Profile and one of the four user profiles.

  • Page 13: Configuration

    Configuration EoSens GE Camera Manual 6 Configuration The content of all EoSens registers is called a profile. There is space in non volatile memory for 9 profiles: The PowerUpProfile, 4 user profiles and 4 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.
