1.3 Description
e2v’s next generation of line scan cameras are setting new, high standards for line rate and image quality. Thanks to
e2v’s recently developed CMOS technology, the camera provides 50 000 lines/s in a 16k pixel format and combines
high response with an extremely low noise level; this delivers high signal to noise ratio even when short integration
times are required or when illumination is limited. The 5μm pixel size is arranged in one single active line, ensuring
optimal spatial resolution in both scanning and sensor directions with off-the-shelf lenses.
1.4 Typical Applications
 Flat Panel Color Filter Inspection
 PCB Inspection
 Solar Cell Inspection
 Glass Inspection
 Print Inspection

This device must accept any interferencereceived, including interference that may cause undesired operation
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercialenvironment.This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interferenceto radio communications.Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interferencein which case the user will be required to correct the interference
at his own expense.

6CAMERA SOFTWARE INTERFACE
6.1 Control and Interface
As all the e2v Cameras, the UNIIQA+ CL is delivered with the friendly interface control software COMMCAM.UCL (as
“Ultimate Camera Link”) which is based on the GenICam standard
COMMCAM recognizes and detects automatically all the UCL Cameras connected on any transport layers (Camera Link or
COM ports) of your system.
Once connected to the Camera you have an easy access to all its features. The visibility of these features can be
associated to three types of users: Beginner, Expert or Guru. Then you can make life easy for simple users.
Minimum version of CommCam is 2.2.2 in order to recognize the UNIIQA +

UNIIQA+® 16k CL
16 UM UNIIQA+16kCL –REVC –11/14 e2v semiconductors SAS 2014
6.2 Serial Protocol and Command Format
The Camera Link interface provides two LVDS signal pairs for communication between the camera and
the frame grabber. This is an asynchronous serial communication based on RS-232 protocol.
The serial line configuration is:
 Full duplex/without handshaking
 9600 bauds (default), 8-bit data, no parity bit, 1 stop bit. The baud rate can be set up to 115200
6.2.1 Syntax
Internal camera configurations are activated by write or readout commands.
The command syntax for write operation is:
w <command_name> <command_parameters><CR>
The command syntax for readout operation is:
r <command_name><CR>
6.2.2 Command Processing
Each command received by the camera is processed:
 The setting is implemented (if valid)
 The camera returns “>”<return code><CR>
The camera return code has to be received before sending a new command.
The camera return code has to be received before sending a new command. Some commands are longer
than the others : Waiting for the return code ensure a good treatment of all the commands
Without saturating the buffer of the camera

6.2.3 GenICam ready
The CameraLink Standard is not yet compliant with GenICam Standard, but as much as possible, each command of the
UNIIQA+ will have its correspondence with the Standard Feature Naming Convention of the GenIcam Standard.
This correspondence is given in parenthesis for each feature/command as the following example :

is stopped
Once the Standby mode turned off, the Camera
recovers in less than 1ms to send images again
from the sensor.

CommCam “Image Format Control” section :
Read function : “r clfq”;
Return by the Camera : 0 (Frequency = 85MHz)
Can not be written;
Reverse Reading (X) ( ReverseReading ) : Allows to output the line in the Reverse-X direction. This value is available in the
CommCam “Image Format Control” section :
Read function : “r revr”;
Return by the Camera : 0 or 1 (enabled/disabled)
Write function : “w revr <value>”;
“0” : Disabled.
“1” : Enables the reverse reading out (see below for “normal” direction)
Test Image Selector ( TestImageSelector ) : Defines if the data comes from the Sensor or the FPGA (test Pattern). This
command is available in the CommCam “Image Format” section :
Read function : “r srce”;
Returned by the camera : “0” if Source from the Sensor and “1 to 5” if test pattern active
Write function : “w srce” <value> :
“0” : To switch to CCD sensor image
“1” :Grey Horizontal Ramp (Fixed) : See AppendixA
“2” : White Pattern (Uniform white image : 255 in 8Bits or 4095 in 12bits)
“3” : Grey Pattern (Uniform middle Grey : 128 in 8bits or 2048 in 12 bits)
“4” : Black Pattern (Uniform black : 0 in both 8 and 12 bits)
“5” : Grey vertical Ramp (moving)
The test pattern is generated in the FPGA : It’s used to point out any interface problem with the Frame Grabber.
When any of the Test pattern is enabled, the whole processing chain of the FPGA is disabled.
