The ‚Sensor‘ profile menu

Sensor-specific parameters are entered in this menu. These include the pixel clock rate, the shutter mode, the ADC amplification, and the gamma correction option.

The pixel clock rate of the camera can be set in the 'Pixel clock' box. The frame readout time is displayed below the box.

One of the two sensor shutter modes, i.e. synchronous shutter or rolling shutter, can be selected under 'Shutter'.

Under 'Amplification' the user can set the amplification factor for the analog amplifier downstream of the sensor in 6 increments. Default is 1.

Note: For the following reasons, the amplification factor should not be changed in industrial image processing applications:

∙ The proper calibration of the camera is no longer guaranteed.

∙ The pixel values are falsified through the amplification limitation.

∙ The signal noise would be amplified and the desired improvement of the image brightness cannot be achieved.
