Offset control is done automatically for optimal results. User control
is disabled.

In the pco.ultraviolet an optimal hot pixel correction is already
integrated. For exp. times > 1s you might need extra Hot Pixel List
Conversion Factor
7
The conversion factor defines how many charges (electrons), which
have been generated by light in each pixel, are necessary to generate
one count (one intensity level) in the digital image. Therefore, the
conversion factor describes the gain when converting electrons into a
digital value.
The pco.ultraviolet has two conversion factors namely 0.8e
-
1.4e / count which both can be used in standard and binning mode.
As mentioned in 6.3. binning is available for the pco.ultraviolet. The
usable extended fullwell-capacity rises in binning mode from 14000
to 24000e - . In standard mode it makes sense to keep 0.8e
you change the conversion factor to 1,4e
dynamic of 16384 grey scale. In binning mode you can use both
conversion factors: If you have a lowlight scene the 0.8e
helps you to spread the few available information – in normal light
scenes it makes sense to use 1.4e
Electronics Temperature
A digital temperature compensation is integrated instead of a space
consuming thermo-electrical cooling unit. No additional fan is
necessary.
