[Elphel-support] change camera parameters through Telnet

[Oleg]

Hi,

so there are three stages or three levels of information: Sensor, FPGA, and

It is possible but not recommended: "fpcf -help".

Here only sensor is called. It's controlled through an i2c bus 0x48
(shifted by 1 bit for convenience - it's 0x90) sensor's address on that
bus, 0x20 - register's address, 0x60 - value. You do have a datasheet for
the sensor, right?
