Example
To map the internal Format_7 Mode_19 to the visible Format_7 Mode_1,
write the decimal number 19 to the above listed F7MODE_1 register.
Low noise binning mode (2 x and 4 x binning)
This register enables/disables
low noise binning mode
.
This means: an average (and not a sum) of the luminance values is calculated
within the FPGA.
The image is therefore darker than with the usual binning mode, but the sig-
nal to noise ratio is better (approximately a factor of
).
Note
For available Format_7 modes see
possible Format_7 modes to F7M1...F7M7
Setting the F7MODE_x register to:
•
-1 forces the camera to use the factory defined mode
•
-2 disables the respective Format_7 mode (no mapping
is applied)
After setup of personal Format_7 mode mappings you
have to reset the camera. The mapping is performed dur-
ing the camera startup only.
