3.14 Monitoring the Camera<br />

Temperature Measurement<br />

The temperature of the camera can be determined by using the<br />

verify_temperature command. This command will return the temperature<br />

of the CCD sensor in degrees Celsius. For proper operation, this value should not<br />

exceed 80°C. By default, the camera only checks the sensor temperature once at<br />

startup unless it receives the appropriate command.<br />

If the temperature exceeds 80°C, the camera will report an error. Verify that the<br />

camera is getting adequate convection cooling (i.e. the camera is not enclosed<br />

and the vent holes are not blocked etc.).<br />

Voltage Measurement<br />

The command verify_voltage checks the camera’s input voltage and internal<br />

voltages. If they are within the proper range, the camera returns Ok>. Otherwise<br />

the camera returns Fail. Note that the voltage measurement feature of the camera<br />

provides only approximate results (within 10%). They should not be used to set<br />

the applied voltage to the camera. The purpose of this test is to isolate gross<br />

problems with the supply voltages.<br />
