Page 11: Preparation
Note When the JAI SDK is installed, a camera driver for the interface is also part of the default installation. This Vision Filter Driver is added to every NIC/port on the host computer. As the driver is also added to the NIC/port for Internet connection, it may, on some systems, affect Internet access speed. - Page 12 GO-5101M-PMCL / GO-5101C-PMCL v Clear the [JAI Vision Filter Driver] checkbox, and save. Verify the settings for using Camera Link. The GO-5101-PMCL supports GenICam and Gen-CP. Check the following settings when controlling the camera via JAI SDK. Checking the frame grabber board's settings Settings must be configured on the frame grabber board to enable Gen-CP support.

Page 35: Gamma Function
GO-5101M-PMCL / GO-5101C-PMCL 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 36: Automatic Detection

Subsequent triggers follow the user-defined values in [Sequencer Index Frame Count] and [Sequencer ROI Next Index]. Assigning a Next Index value of “1” to an index creates a loop back to the start of the sequencer pattern.
- Page 41 GO-5101M-PMCL / GO-5101C-PMCL Changing the value of [Command Sequencer Index] to one of the other predefined indexes causes that index to be executed in response to subsequent triggers. This mode of operation enables users to develop applications that continually send new values to [Command Sequencer Index] in response to external factors such as changing light conditions, different types or sizes of objects being inspected, or other factors.
