Marking the defined area of interest
It is possible to mark the defined area of interest by dimming the area outside the
ROI, so the selected area stands out brighter. To do so, set the feature
AutoModeRegionDimOutside
to
On
.
Automatic exposure control
The exposure of the Goldeye G/CL can be adjusted automatically by applying the
relevant auto exposure settings. The adjustment is based on the present signal
values of pixels within the image.
By default, the automatic exposure control is switched off, however, it is possible to
have the automatic exposure control run in several ways:
•
Run it continuously.
•
Run it until the required target value is reached, then stop it.
Selecting an algorithm
To automatically determine the optimal exposure of the sensor, a few statistical
values need to be calculated first: a mean (average) value, minimum and maximum

dimming applied, right: with dimming applied to the outside area.
