Preliminary
60 • Operational Reference Genie Monochrome Series-GigE Vision Camera
Using Flat Field Correction
From the CamExpert menu bar enable Flat Field correction
(Pre-Processing • Flat Field Correction • Enable). Now when doing a live grab or snap, the
incoming image is corrected by the current flat field calibration data for each pixel.
Use the menu function Tools • Flat Field Correction • Load to load in a flat field correction image
from previously saved calibration data. CamExpert allows saving and loading calibration data for all
cameras used with the imaging system.
Internal Image Test Patterns
The Genie camera includes a built in test pattern generator that can be used to confirm camera Ethernet
connections or driver installations, without the need for a camera lens or proper lighting. The pattern
generator inserts video just after the sensor A/D converter, therefore Genie processing such as the
LUT act on the generator images or on sensor images.
CamExpert is used to easily enable and select the Genie test patterns. As shown in the following
figure, select the Sensor tab, then select one of the four patterns from the drop menu. Select live grab
to see the pattern output.
