Binning; Output Bit Length; Image Flip; Gain - Sony XCL-SG510C Technical Manual

Binning

By adding 2 vertical pixels or 2 horizontal pixels, the
frame rate in vertical binning is increased along with the
sensitivity. The color camera cannot set this. This can be
set with or without a trigger. Partial scan can be used
concurrently and horizontal and vertical can be set at the
same time.

Output Bit Length

The camera can switch the Raw output between, 8 bit/10
bit/12 bit/16bit.
Command Parameter
PIXEL-DEPTH 8/10/12/16
To output in 16-bit length, enable wide dynamic range
(see page 39).
When wide dynamic range is not enabled, only the top
12-bit will be enabled.

Image flip

Flips an image vertically and horizontally.
Reboot the unit to reflect the changes of the setting.

Gain

Manual gain

Manual gain can be set finely in 0.1dB increments.
Although the settable lower/upper limit values of the
gain are slightly different in each camera, the GAIN
parameter value can be set from –1 dB or less to 27 dB
or more. Same as the gain, the parameter value of the
GAIN-FINE can be set from –10 or less to 270 or more.
The setting range of the gain that guarantees image
quality is from 0 dB to 18 dB.
Command Command parameter
GAIN –1 or less ~ 0 ~ 27 or more
GAIN-FINE –10 or less ~ 0 ~ 270 or
more

Auto gain (AGC)

By executing the GAIN-AUTO command, the gain is
automatically adjusted according to the image pickup
environment. AGC works so that the average level in a
detection frame may reach AGC-LEVEL. The AGC
detection frame is set to the central region by default.
The detection frame can be displayed or the detection
area changed.
