Description of the data path

AUTOFNC_AOI affects the auto shutter, auto gain and auto white balance fea-

tures and is independent of the Format7 AOI settings. If this feature is switched

off, the work area position and size represent the current active image size.

The camera automatically adjusts the settings to the permitted values.

Due to the fact that the active image size might not be divisible by 4 without a

remainder, the autofunction AOI work-area size might be greater.

This allows for the positioning of the work area to be at the bottom of the active

image.

Another case is for outdoor applications: the sky will be excluded from the gen-

eration of the reference levels when the autofunction AOI is placed at the bot-

tom of the image.

Within this area, the R-G-B component values of the samples are added and used

as actual values for the feedback.

Configuration

To set position and size of the control area (Auto_Func-

tion_AOI) in an advanced register: see Table 119: Advanced

Note



If the adjustment fails and the work area size and/or position

becomes invalid, this feature is automatically switched off –

make sure to read back the ON_OFF flag if this feature doesn’t

work as expected.
