Binning - Basler ace acA640-90gm User Manual

Standard Features

10.6 Binning

The binning feature is only available on monochrome cameras.
On the acA750-30gm, only horizontal binning by 2 is available.
Binning increases the camera's response to light by summing the charges from adjacent pixels into
one pixel. Two types of binning are available: vertical binning and horizontal binning.
With vertical binning, adjacent pixels from 2 rows, 3 rows, or a maximum of 4 rows in the imaging
sensor array are summed and are reported out of the camera as a single pixel. Figure 79 illustrates
vertical binning.

ning.
