Preliminary
Genie Monochrome Series-GigE Vision Camera Operational Reference • 61
The Genie test patterns are:
• Horizontal ramp: successive pixel's gray level is incremented by 1 to maximum pixel value then
repeated until the end of line. The gray level is reset to 0 on the following line.
• Vertical ramp: similar to the horizontal ramp, successive lines are incremented by 1 gray level
then repeated for the full frame.
• Moving diagonal ramp: combination of the 2 previous schemes, but first pixel in image is
incremented by 1 between successive frames. This is a good pattern to indicate motion when
doing a continuous grab.
• Purity: a purity pattern where all pixels have the same value. The gray value is incremented by
one on successive frames to maximum then repeated. This also provides motion for live grabs.

Genie Sapera parameters for Image Test Patterns:
TestImageSelector = {Off = 0, Grey Horizontal Ramp = 1, Grey Vertical Ramp = 2,
Grey Diagonal Ramp Moving = 3, Purity = 4}
In CamExpert, these parameters are available in the “Sensor” tab.
GenICam features for Image Test Patterns:
TestImageSelector = {Off = 0, HorizontalWedge = 1, VerticalWedge = 2,
DiagonalMovingWedge = 3}
