Mv mipi i2c.sh user guide

mv_mipi_i2c.sh Shell scripts usage

1 Overview

The mv_mipi_i2c.sh script is a tool set for configuring MV MIPI series cameras through the I2C.

This script is essentially an access to registers. For registers, please refer to MV Series and RAW Series MIPI Camera Register Map.

2 Raspberry Pi on Legacy mode Only, Set IO config

Note that if you are using v4l2 mode, you do not need to perform this step.

Running

./enable_i2c_vc.sh

./camera_i2c_config

first，it will config IO pin. Then you can run mv_mipi_i2c.sh.

8.1 Note

The camera has two states, standby and running, after the start of image acquisition into the running state.

There are some registers that are write-protected in the running state, which will be marked with an asterisk. For example: trgsrc* .

There are some parameters that have strict range restrictions, and it's a good idea to try reading them when you're in doubt.

ROI(region of interest) is the sensor output area, and the default is full screen output.

Parameter requirements:

[x] [y] [height] must be 4-aligned;

[width] must be 8-aligned;

The minimum ROI resolution will be different for different sensors.

For example, MV-MIPI-IMX178M minimum resolution is: 376*320;MV-MIPI-SC130M minimum resolution is 64*64.

The camera will make necessary adjustments to the user parameters to meet the parameter requirements.

Note1: All parameters of exposure time are in microseconds. However, due to the properties of the sensor, the actual exposure time unit of the sensor is 1 line, can not be accurate to 1us.

Note2: AE: Auto exposure; AG: Auto Gain; AA: AE and AG.

Note3: The AAROI coordinates are relative coordinates within the ROI area.

Note4: For RAW Series, there are some functions that are not supported, please refer to the register list for details.

9 Configuration Method for Typical Application Scenarios:

9.1 Manual Exposure Mode:

 ./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f expmode -p1 0 -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f gainmode -p1 0 -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f metime -p1 exptime_you_want_to_set_us -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f mgain -p1 gain_you_want_to_set_dB -b your_i2c_bus_number

 After configuration, read the parameters with the following commands to confirm they have taken effect:

 ./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -r -f exptime -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -r -f curgain -b your_i2c_bus_number

  Note: The maximum exposure time must be strictly less than the reciprocal of the fps.

9.2 Continuous Auto Exposure Mode:

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f expmode -p1 2 -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f gainmode -p1 2 -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f aatarget -p1 brightness_target -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f aemaxtime -p1 [16,1000000/fps] -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f agmaxgain -p1 [0,maxgain] -b your_i2c_bus_number

  After continuous imaging for a while, you can read the current actual exposure time and gain using the following commands:

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -r -f exptime -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -r -f curgain -b your_i2c_bus_number

9.3 Normal Trigger Mode:

   First, stop the image acquisition to enter a state where the trigger mode can be modified:

   ./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f imgacq -p1 0 -b your_i2c_bus_number

   In the following example, configure the camera for normal hardware trigger mode, where each trigger signal captures 1 image:

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f trgmode -p1 1 -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f trgsrc -p1 1 -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f trgnum -p1 1 -b your_i2c_bus_number

   You may optionally execute the following two commands to set the trigger edge and delay:

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f trgedge -p1 [0,1] -b your_i2c_bus_number

./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f trgdelay -p1 [us] -b your_i2c_bus_number

   After configuration, you can start the image acquisition to accept trigger signals:

 ./mv_mipi_i2c.sh -w -f imgacq -p1 1 -b your_i2c_bus_number
