CamExpert LUT Controls

The Lookup Table dialog allows you to configure the LUT if it is available on the device. Genie monochrome cameras support an 8-bit or 10-bit LUT. To open this dialog, use the Pre-Processing > Lookup Table > Setting menu command. Note that you must first enable the Lookup Table, otherwise the Setting command will be grayed- out.

To select the type of LUT to use, click the LUT Mode Value field; a drop-down list box displays the available modes. The Lookup Table dialog displays a graph of the input and output values for the selected LUT. These are CamExpert common examples for LUT operations. A Sapera application can program the Genie LUT for any required LUT operation. See "Lookup Table (LUT)" on page 56 for Genie LUT support.
