The amount of gradient between the darkest pixels and lightest pixels in the image. Higher contrast will
lighten the lightest pixels and darken the darkest pixels.
5.4.3
Gamma
Signal correction between Scope and Display monitor.
5.4.4

The distinguishing attribute of color.
This is what makes red different than

slider, think about moving around a
color wheel from 180
⁰
to -180
⁰
.
5.4.5
Saturation
The amount of grey in a color. Lower
saturation has more grey, higher
saturation has less grey.
5.4.6

The clarity of detail in an image. Higher
sharpness means more abrupt
transitions between different colors.
5.4.7
Snapshot Size
Options will depend on Hardware.
5.4.8
USB Bandwidth
The rate of data transfer between from
the scope in Mb/s. Choose the highest
rate possible; however, it may be

notice problems with the function of
other USB devices, such as the Tormach
Jog Shuttle. This is dependent on the
performance of the control computer.
5.4.9

image capture. Higher exposure
improves images taken in low light, but
too much can “washout” features.
