    ) can be adjusted by the user, however, the time need- exposure ed for the readout (t ) is given by the particular sensor and image format. readout Baumer cameras can be operated with three modes, the Free Running Mode, the Fixed- Frame-Rate Mode and the Trigger Mode.

  • Page 24: Free Running Mode

    2.4.2 Fixed-Frame-Rate Mode With this feature Baumer introduces a clever technique to the TXG camera series, that enables the user to predefine a desired frame rate in continous mode. For the employment of this mode the cameras are equipped with an internal clock genera- tor that creates trigger pulses. Notice From a certain frame rate, skipping internal triggers is unavoidable.

  • Page 25: Trigger Mode

    2.4.3 Trigger Mode After a specified external event (trigger) has occurred, image acquisition is started. De- pending on the interval of triggers used, the camera operates non-overlapped or over- lapped in this mode. With regard to timings in the trigger mode, the following basic formulas need to be taken into consideration: Case Formula...

    4.1.1 Image Format A digital camera usually delivers image data in at least one format - the native resolution of the sensor. Baumer cameras are able to provide several image formats (depending on the type of camera). Compared with standard cameras, the image format on Baumer cameras not only in- cludes resolution, but a set of predefined parameter.

  • Page 34: Pixel Format

    4.1.2 Pixel Format On Baumer digital cameras the pixel format depends on the selected image format. 4.1.2.1 Definitions RAW: Raw data format. Here the data are stored without processing. Bayer: Raw data format of color sensors. Color filters are placed on these sensors in a checkerboard pattern, generally  in a 50% green, 25% red and 25% blue array.

Two bytes are needed for transmitting more than 8 bits per pixel - even if the second byte is not completely filled with data. In order to save bandwidth, the  packed formats were introduced to Baumer TXG cameras. In this formats, the unused bits of one pixel are filled with data from the next pixel. 8 bit: ◄ Figure 29...

    4.1.6 Region of Interest (ROI) With the "Region of Interest" function it is possible to predefine a so-called Region of Inter- est (ROI) or Partial Scan. This ROI is an area of pixels of the sensor. On image acquisi- tion, only the information of these pixels is sent to the PC. Therefore all the lines of the sensor need not be read out, which decreases the readout time (t ).

  • Page 40: Binning

    Thus, the progression is greatly increased by the amount of binned pixels. By using this operation, the progression in sensitivity is coupled to a reduction in resolution. Baumer cameras support three types of Binning - vertical, horizontal and bidirectional. In unidirectional binning, vertically or horizontally neighboring pixels are aggregated and reported to the software as one single "superpixel".

  • Page 41: Brightness Correction (Binning Correction)

    4.1.8 Brightness Correction (Binning Correction) The aggregation of charge carriers may cause an overload. To prevent this, binning cor- rection was introduced. Here, three binning modes need to be considered separately: Binninig Realization 1x2 binning is performed within the sensor, binning correction also takes place here.

  • Page 44: Gain

    4.4.2 Gain In industrial environments motion blur is unacceptable. Due to this fact exposure times are limited. However, this causes low output signals from the camera and results in dark images. To  solve this  issue, the signals can be amplified by  a  user-defined  gain  factor  within the camera. This gain factor is adjustable from 1 to 10. Notice Increasing the gain factor causes an increase of image noise.

    In principle modern network hardware supports a packet size of 1500 Byte, which is specified in the network standard. However, so-called "Jumboframes" are on the advance as Gigabit Ethernet continues to spread. "Jumboframes" merely characterizes a packet size exceeding 1500 Bytes. Baumer TXG cameras can handle a MTU of up to 65535 Bytes. 5.3 Inter Packet Gap To achieve optimal results in image transfer, several Ethernet-specific factors need to be  IPG: The IPG is measured in considered when using Baumer TXG cameras.

  • Page 59: Example 1: Multi Camera Operation - Minimal Ipg

    5.3.1 Example 1: Multi Camera Operation – Minimal IPG Setting the IPG to minimum means every image is transfered at maximum speed. Even by using a frame rate of 1 fps this results in full load on the network. Such "bursts" can lead to an overload of several network components and a loss of packets. This can occur, especially when using several cameras.

  • Page 60: Transmission Delay

    5.4 Transmission Delay Another approach for packet sorting in multi-camera operation is the so-called Trans- mission Delay, which was introduced to Baumer Gigabit Ethernet cameras in hardware release 2.1.

    5.7 Packet Resend Due to the fact, that the GigE Vision standard stipulates using a UDP - a stateless user ® datagram protocol - for data transfer, a mechanism for saving the "lost" data needs to be employed. Here, a resend request is initiated if one or more packets are damaged during transfer and - due to an incorrect checksum - rejected afterwards.
