Run white balance
1. Direct the device's field of view onto a white surface (e.g. white paper) or limit the field of view to a
white area in the image.
2. Now click on the Image acquisition tab and change the exposure time to create an image that is as
homogeneous as possible and slightly grey.
3. Click on the White balance tab again and then on the Run button. The three RGB values should now
be similar to one another, see the status bar below.
Once the white balance has been run, you can reconfigure the exposure time on the Image acquisition tab to
suit your requirements.
Run: Run white balance with currently displayed image.
Reset to standard: reset to the factory white balance setting.
Limit field of view: Limit the area used for the white balance. This may be necessary if only part of the
image is suitable for white balancing.
