

Flat Field Calibration Window

The Flat Field calibration window provides a three step process to acquire two reference images

and then save the flat field correction data for the Genie used. To aid in determining if the

reference images are valid, a histogram tool is provided so that the user can review the images

used for the correction data. Note that it is important to follow the instructions in the preceding

section to prepare for the dark and light acquisition steps required for calibration.

CamExpert Flat Field Calibration Menu



Click on the

Advanced Setting

button to change the default number of frames averaged for

each calibration step. The default value is 10 frames (as performed by CamExpert).
