GigE Camera and Drivers Features V3.0.0

This document is a master document for all Allied Vision GigE camera models and is NOT camera specific

GainAutoMax [Float] R/W

The upper bound to the gain setting in auto gain mode.

GainAutoMin [Float] R/W

The lower bound to the gain setting in auto gain mode.

GainAutoOutliers [Integer] R/W

The total pixels from top of the distribution that are ignored by the auto gain

algorithm.

GainAutoRate [Integer] R/W

The rate at which the auto gain function changes. A percentage of the maximum

rate.

GainAutoTarget [Integer] R/W

The general lightness or darkness of the auto gain feature. A percentage of max-

imum brightness.

GainSelector [Enum] R/W

Gamma [Float] R/W

Nonlinear brightness control. Applies gamma value to the raw sensor signal

(via LUT).

For Manta type A If Gamma is ON, LUT 1 is used to do the gamma transform. The original LUT val-

ues will be stored temporarily. If Gamma is ON, and you read out LUT1: you only

get stored LUT values but not Gamma values. In general, Gamma values can‘t be

read out.

If Gamma is OFF, LUT position 1 contains optional user defined LUT values.

Range: [0 – Camera dependent] Unit: dB

Range: [0 – Camera dependent] Default: 0 Unit: dB

Range: [1–1000] Default: 0 Unit: 0.01%, i.e. 1000 = 10%

Range: [1–100] Default: 100 Unit: Percent

Range: [0–100] Default: 50 Unit: Percent

All [Default] Gain will be applied to all channels or taps

Range: Camera dependent Default: 1.00

Unit: Output = (Input)

Gamma

1.00 Gamma OFF (no Gamma correction)

Values other than 1.00 Gamma ON

Note



Manta type B, Mako G, and Prosilica GT cameras have

a stand-alone gamma function which does not share

resources with LUTs.
