Hardware adjustment capability is available on special order. Camera system power is derived from the computer bus. All timing and video signals as well as power are carried on a single multiconductor cable which connects the camera to the computer.

Exposure time is software controlled with a resolution of one millisecond.
These linkable routines are written in assembly for compiler independence, and are provided in object format.
