Settings Needed To Run Camera

channela:

• datamode: using medium 8bit

• framemode: our camera only gives a line valid (indication that there is valid data) we need to set to "line"

• tapcount: our camera sends 4 bytes where it could send 6

• dataen: enables the data block (leave false until able to receive data)

• baudrate: 9600
• use sendGCP to test serial link is working (output should appear on terminal)

• swcontrolvalue/swcontrolen: bits for hardware vs software trigger (0/0 internal trigger)

• running: status bit (am I getting frames from camera)

• dropcount: 3 channels misaligned (errors)

• have to set both sender/receiver to "medium"

• send escape right away after powering up

Camera settings must agree with converter-board settings. 

Send these TLC strings:

• CLM 1 (cameralink medium mode)

• SVM 1 (test pattern ramp)

Camera output should appear on terminal after setting ClinkTop->ChannelA->DataEn to True
