[2] Underexposed line appears in binning mode [3] Remove mono8/16 mode in fmt7mode0 for color sensor. [4] Add led control for USB model. 1.2.2.01 (Jan 5 2009) [1] Unable to adjust frame rate 1.2.2.0 (Dec 16 2008) [1] Improve framerate calculation in fmt7 [3] Improve monochrome sensor saturation response 0.9.2.12 (October 25 2008) [1] FFMV USB returns splited image when switching settings in fmt 7. 0.9.2.11 (September 25 2008) [1] add uptime function. [2] All FFMV camera returns invalid images at low resolution with 75%BPP. [3] external triggering is not working for GPIO2 & GPIO3. 0.9.2.10 (July 25 2008) [1] fix random tearing image when embedding GPIO status. 0.9.2.9 (July 11 2008) [1] Embedded GPIO does not work. [2] usb2 info buffer size 128bytes=>256bytes to match dump console size(0x1D00+0x100) for FFMV-USB. 0.9.2.8 (June 19 2008) [1]Unable to turn on stobe on FFMV. Introduced in 0.9.0.3. 0.9.2.7 (June 3 2008) [1] increase sensor register access speed to avoid register wrong in fast binning mode. [2] mono sensor ADC reference voltage 1.4v => 1.3v to fix saturation for some mono sensors. 0.9.2.6 (Apr 30 2008) [1] Enable remaining 2 GPIO pins [2] Enable RS232 serial port functionality 0.9.0.4 (14 Feb 2008 ) [1] Support new board revision [2] change to new synchronization mechanism. 0.9.0.3 (06 Dec 2007 ) [1] Support synchronization between buses. - For sync between buses, FFMV needs to wait several seconds to sync itself after setting video mode. 0.9.0.2 (17 Jul 2007 ) [1] Fix [Bug 5387]: Entering trigger mode puts camera in bad state. 0.9.0.1 (10 Jul 2007 ) [1] Top lines are black with some Format_7 Mode_0 sizes [2] Vertical lines in trigger mode 0. [3] White Balance setting is not reflected in image when in trigger mode 0. 0.0.0.11 (08 May 2007) [1] Add automatic inter-camera synchronization - Support for Format_0 modes only, 30fps or 60fps only (no Format_7 support) - The amount of time to get sync depends on frame rate (max 12 seconds at 30fps) - Maximum deviation between image acquisition is 125us [2] Allow GPIO power-up state to change using memory channels 0.0.0.9 (27 Feb 2007) [1] Images darker in trigger mode [2] Firefly MV top and left custom image offsets backwards [3] Inactive auto gain/shutter/exposure registers disabled 0.0.0.8 (16 Oct 2006) [1] EEPROM saving problems [2] Enable DCAM-compliant FRAME_RATE control 0.0.0.7 (01 Aug 2006) [1] Improve color sensor image saturation (should work for most color sensors) 0.0.0.6 (19 Jul 2006) [1] Support production FFMV hardware version v1.3 0.0.0.5 (11 Jul 2006) [1] Support color FFMV (white balance manual adjust) 0.0.0.4 (19 May 2006) [1] Fixed Y16 mode not working [2] Fixed wrong timestamp [3] Fixed 160x120 mode corrupt image [4] Added horizontal image flip (mirror) [5] Disable AEC/AGC and auto black (brightness) control in trigger mode 0 Terms and Conditions -------------------- PGR, the Point Grey Research, Inc. logo, Digiclops, Dragonfly, Dragonfly Express, Firefly, Flea, Ladybug, Scorpion and Triclops are trademarks or registered trademarks of Point Grey Research, Inc. in Canada and other countries.
