Remarks

The driver should throw an InvalidValueException if an attempt is made to set SetCCDTemperature outside the valid range for the camera. As an assitance to driver authors, to protect equipment and prevent harm to individuals, Conform will report an issue if it is possible to set SetCCDTemperature below -280C or above +100C.

Note: Camera hardware and/or driver should perform cooler ramping, to prevent thermal shock and potential damage to the CCD array or cooler stack.
