1.3 Thermal Considerations
The CAM/CMOS 2K.LS has been carefully designed to separate the camera electronics
from the image sensor. In addition, the Fairchild Imaging CMOS sensor runs cooler than a
CCD device
.
Fairchild Imaging advises waiting until the camera has stabilized
thermally before performing offset and gain corrections. You can determine
that the camera has stabilized thermally by repeatedly using the "TSB"
command to read sensor temperature. When sensor temperature changes
less than 0.1
°
C per minute, the camera has stabilized.
Try to avoid excess temperatures in the ambient around the camera.
