  • Page 29: Gain Control

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Gain Control [Analog All] can be used for gain control for both the monochrome and color camera. [Analog All] (master gain) uses the sensor's internal gain function and consists of analog gain + digital gain. Analog gain is used for lower gain, and analog gain + digital gain is used when the gain becomes high.
  • Page 30: Lut (Lookup Table)

    LUT Selector* R, G, B Select the LUT channel to control. LUT Index GO-2400M-USB: 0 to 256 Select the LUT index to configure. Indexes represent the GO-2400C-USB: 0 to 256 possible pixel values captured on the sensor, from the lowest value (Index 0) to the highest (Index 256).
  • Page 31: Gamma Function

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Gamma Function The gamma function corrects the output signals from the camera beforehand (reverse correction), taking into consideration the light-emitting properties of the monitor display. As the light-emitting properties of the monitor are not linear, the entire image may be darker or the gradation in the dark areas may be less noticeable when camera outputs are displayed without processing.
  • Page 32: Shading Correction

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Shading Correction The shading correction is a function that corrects non-uniformity (i.e., shading) in the amount of light generated by the lens and lighting equipment. Using this function allows correction even if top, bottom, left, and right shading is not symmetrical in relation to the center of the screen (H, V).
  • Page 33: Color Shading (Go-2400C-Usb Only)

    [Shading Mode]. Binning Function The binning function (GO-2400M-USB Only) allows you to combine the signal values of clusters of adjacent pixels on the sensor to create improved virtual pixels. Using the function results in images with lower pixel resolution and higher sensitivity.
  • Page 34: Roi (Regional Scanning Function)

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB ROI (Regional Scanning Function) The ROI (region of interest) function allows you to output images by specifying the areas to scan. ROI Settings Specify the area to scan by specifying width, height, and horizontal/vertical offset values under [Image Format Control].
  • Page 35: Sensor Multi Roi Function

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Sensor Multi ROI Function Sensor Multi ROI is an ROI function that is configured and functions inside the sensor. You can configure up to 16 scanning regions (4 horizontal and 4 vertical). By skipping areas that are not specified as regions of interest when scanning a frame, the sensor's ROI function outputs the specified regions in a compressed state.
  • Page 36 GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB When you configure the [OffsetH], [Width], [OffsetV], and [Height] settings for an index and set [Horizontal Enable] or [Vertical Enable] to [True] for that index, the corresponding area is configured. When [False] is specified, the settings within the index are disabled.
  • Page 37: Sequencer Function

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Sequencer Function The Sequencer function lets you define up to 128 preset combinations of exposure time, gain, ROI, and other settings which can be stepped through each time a trigger is received. This is particularly useful for quickly capturing multiple exposures of objects under inspection to adjust for areas or components with significantly different levels of reflectance.

  • Page 40: Delayed Readout [Acquisition Transfer Start]

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Delayed Readout [Acquisition Transfer Start] Delayed readout enables images captured by a Frame Start trigger command to be stored inside the camera and read out on demand at a later time using Acquisition Transfer Start trigger. This can be especially useful when multiple cameras need to be triggered at the same time, but simultaneous readout of all images would overwhelm the available network bandwidth.
  • Page 41: Detailed Settings For Gain Auto (Automatic Gain Level Control)

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Detailed Settings for Gain Auto (Automatic Gain Level Control) When [Gain Auto] is set to [Continuous], you can configure the conditions for automatic adjustment in detail.

  • Page 42: Counter And Timer Control Function (Counter Support Only)

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Counter and Timer Control Function (counter support only) The counter function counts up change points in the camera’s internal signals using the camera’s internal counter, and reads that information from the host side. This function is useful for verifying error conditions via the count value using internal camera operations.
  • Page 43: To Use The Counter Function

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB ■ To use the counter function Configure the settings as follows. Three counters can be configured (Counter 0 to 2). Item Setting value / selectable range Description Counter 0 to 2 Counter 0 to 2 Select the counter.
  • Page 44: Chunk Data Function

    GO-2400M-USB / GO-2400C-USB Chunk Data Function The Chunk Data function adds camera configuration information to the image data that is output from the camera.
