Y16 (16-bit Mono) Image Acquisition
The camera can output Y16 (16 bits-per-pixel) mono images. Because the camera's A/D converter is less than 16 bits,
unused bits are zero.

Method for converting signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to/from bits of data
The PGM file format can be used to correctly save 16- bit images. Although the availability of photo
manipulation/display applications that can correctly display true 16-bit images is limited, XV in Linux and Adobe
Photoshop are two possibilities.

Y8 or Y16 Raw Bayer Output
When operating in Y8 or Y16 mode, color models can output either grayscale or raw Bayer data.
5.2.6.1
BAYER_MONO_CTRL: 1050h
This register enables raw Bayer output in non-Format 7 Y8/Y16 modes, or Format 7 Mono8/Mono16 modes.

Selecting a half- width, half- height image size and monochrome pixel format, such as
800x600 Y8, using a non-Format 7 mode provides a monochrome binned image. In some
cases, enabling raw Bayer output in mono mode provides a raw Bayer region of interest of
800x600, centered within the larger pixel array. This has an effect on the field of view.
