Note: the color version (TMC-1405GE) requires color interpolation to be performed in the frame
grabber or by using the host computer’s CPU. In default mode, the camera supports 2 x 2 color
interpolation. For better color performance, the user can select 3 x 3 interpolation in the Camera
Interface Application. Go to the “Acquisition” tab and click Configure. In the Advanced Configuration
Window, select the “Pixel Type” tab. Make sure the camera is set to the proper color space and pixel
depth, then click the check-box labeled “Use 3 x 3 Bayer Interpolation” in the “Conversion Options”
panel. More information on color interpolation and the color filter array (CFA) can be found in Section
8.2 beginning on page 38 of this manual.
