This interpolation is available only for pixel size 10x10µm (True Colour Single only) It can be enabled by the customer. By default, it is disabled This interpolation requires the Forward/Reverse indication sent to the camera for the memorized line. The Line Interpolation has to be disabled if the light is changing for each Line (typically for pulsed Light source with different spectrum) or for any reason the Green component of the light source changes significantly from one line to the next one.

How to perform the Flat Field Correction ? Don’t forget first to setup the Cycling Preset Selector (Acquisition Control / Cycling Preset) in order to select in which Preset (1, 2, 3, 4 or All) you’ll save the result of your FFC once calculated. If the Cycling Preset Mode is not activated, by default it will be saved in Preset 1.
7.8.2 PRNU Low Frequency Filter for FFC The FFC Low Band Filter allows an easier make in use of the FFC (PRNU Part) : You can use a non-moving paper and you can filter the defects of these paper before the FFC calculation in order to not take them in account. The command “LowFilterWidth”...
