    * As the color camera cannot perform white balance when using 12-bit output, perform white balance on the application. The GO-5101M-PGE and GO-5101C-PGE are both capable of frame rates of up to 22.7 fps (8-bit format) for full 5.1-megapixel output. Even faster frame rates can be achieved when binning is utilized (GO-5101M-PGE only) or when a smaller ROI (region of interest) is specified.
