Sensor, pixel clock

•If an image capture is running (is_CaptureVideo()) in freerun as well as in trigger mode, changes on the capturing parameters (such as exposure or gain) only have an effect on the image after the next which is caused by the sensor. If  no image capture is running (is_StopLiveVideo()) in trigger mode the capturing parameters can be set directly for the next image.

•Note the bandwidth requirement for bit depth greater than 8 bits per pixel.

•The pixel clock can only be adjusted in steps.

AOI, multi AOI

•The sensor speed does not increase by the use of a horizontal AOI.

•The sensor supports up to 64 AOIs (up to 8 AOIs horizontally and vertically).

•The minimum AOI height of 2 pixels is only supported in RAW format.

•The settings of the multi AOI cannot be saved in the parameter file or in the camera.

•You cannot mirror the image if multi AOI is activated.

Binning

•Binning is only supported by monochrome sensors.

Subsampling

•Subsampling does not increase the frame rate.

Trigger

•The internal sensor delay is about 2-3 lines when triggering. The line period depends on the selected pixel clock. The higher the pixel clock, the smaller the line period is.

IDS line scan ("AOI merge mode")

•For color sensors, the IDS line scan can only be used with at least 2 lines.

White balance

•The white level may not be reached for very long exposure times and minimum gain. Increase the sensor source gain if necessary.

uEye SE USB 3.1 Gen 1

•The sensor will not get faster in 8-bit mode than in 10-bit mode.

•The value range of the pixel clock changes depending on whether the sensor is operated in 8/10-bit or 12-bit mode.

•It is recommended to use packed color formats in 10-bit mode with high pixel clocks.

USB 2.0 operation

•The camera model does not support USB 2.0 operation.
