Description of the data path
Building defect pixel data
The following flow diagram illustrates the defect pixel correction:
Note
While building defect pixel correction data or uploading them 
from host, the defect pixel correction data are stored volatile 
in FPGA.
Optionally you can store the data in a non-volatile memory 
(Set MemSave to 1).
Note
Configuration
To configure this feature in an advanced register: See table 
136.
Note
• Defect pixel correction is only possible in Mono8 modes 
for monochrome cameras and Raw8 modes for color 
cameras.
• In all other modes you get an error message in advanced 
register 0xF1000298 bit [1] see table 136.
• Using Format_7 Mode_x: Defect pixel correction is done 
in Format_7 Mode_x.
• Using a fixed format (Format_0, Format_1 or Format_2): 
Defect pixel correction is done in Format_7 Mode_0.
• When using defect pixel correction with binning and 
sub-sampling: first switch to binning/sub-sampling 
mode and then apply defect pixel correction.

Set resolution to format_7 Mode_x with Raw8 
or Mono8 color encoding 
Or
Set resolution to Format_7 Mode_0 with Raw8
or Mono8 color encoding, when using fixed modes. Set AOI to max. 
Set BuildDPData to 1 
Choose threshold
Set ON_OFF to 1 
Optional:
Set MemSave to 1
Set values for shutter, gain to max.
