After opening the device and LUT Create Tool through GalaxyView.exe, the initial GUI is shown in Figure
9-1. The layout and function description of widgets are as follows:
[GroupBox] Select Lut from standard Lut, read from device, Lut file, CSV file and default. Among them,
standard Lut is eight groups of factory standard Luts. Read from file is the Lut that can be read from device.
Lut/CSV file can read the saved values. The default mode is the camera default value.
[Auto Create Lut] Adjust the Lut range, Gamma, brightness, and contrast to add effects on base Lut.
[Save Lut] Write the currently generated Lut to device or save to Lut/CSV file.
[Polyline Drawing Area] Represent the currently generated Lut in a curve form.
9.1.2. User Guide
9.1.2.1. User Case
After you select GroupBox and adjust the Lut parameter to a satisfactory effect, if you want to save the
currently set parameters and you want to restore the parameters after the camera is powered on again,
you need to select "Write To Device". The Lut parameter will be written to the UserSet0. After the device
is powered on again, select the "Read From Device" in the GroupBox to load the UserSet0 and restore
the parameter value. This usage case only supports MERCURY2 GigE cameras and MARS cameras.
If the device does not support reading/writing Lut, or does not support Lut to be used on other terminal
devices after adjusting Lut effect through this terminal, then you can use the "Save To File" function. After
adjusting Lut, select " Save To File" and choose the save format as lut. Then select the "Lut File" in
GroupBox again and select the saved Lut file to restore the parameters. If you copy the file to another
terminal and read it, you can still restore the parameters.
9.1.2.2. GroupBox
1. Standard Lut
When selecting standard Lut in GroupBox, the drop-down list box is enabled, which contains eight sets of
optional standard Lut, as shown in Figure 9-7. These eight sets of values are factory set, which can achieve
the optimal image effect. When you choose different standard Lut, the polyline and image effects change.
You can modify the Lut range, Gamma, brightness, contrast values to add image effects until you are most
satisfied.
