   Ok, I was unfamiliar with the FPN term. Do you have a physical shutter   
   and what kind of sensor are you characterizing ?   
      
   If the strange DC level changes with light level and you do not   
   have a physical shutter, could this be optical/electrical leakage   
   on the sensor ?
