  • Page 28: Pixel Sensitivity Correction

    SW-4000TL-SFP Pixel Sensitivity Correction Correct variations between the sensor’s pixels. Calibration must be performed within the camera and correction data must be created beforehand. DSNU (PixelBlackCorrect) / PRNU (PixelGainCorrect) can be reduced using that correction data. We recommend performing calibration and creating correction data whenever the line rate setting or Analog base gain setting or vertical binning setting are changed significantly.
  • Page 29: Gain Control

    SW-4000TL-SFP Gain Control The following gain functions are available on the camera. • Analog base gain • Digital gain ■ Analog base gain Analog base gain (ABG) is gain that is performed to the analog video signal output from the sensor.
  • Page 30: Lookup Table (Lut)

    SW-4000TL-SFP Lookup Table(LUT) The LUT function is used to generate a non-linear mapping between signal values captured on the sensor and those that are output from the camera. You can specify the output curve using 257 setting points (indexes). ■ To use the LUT function Configure the settings as follows.
  • Page 31: Gamma Function

    SW-4000TL-SFP 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 32: Shadingcorrection

    SW-4000TL-SFP Shading Correction The shading correction is a function that corrects non-uniformity (i.e., shading) in the amount of light generated by the lens and lighting equipment. The following shading correction modes are available on the camera。 ■ Flat shading correction Correct so that the part with the highest luminance level in the screen is taken as the reference and the other part is adjusted to this luminance level.
  • Page 33: Variable Line Rate

    SW-4000TL-SFP Variable Line Rate You can set the line rate to 1L or more. This function can be used to match the scanning speed of the camera to the feeding speed of the object or to lengthen the accumulation time to increase sensitivity.
  • Page 34: Color Space Conversion

    Default Caution If you set the color space to XYZ or HSI, eBUS Player for JAI will not display the images captured by the camera properly. To display them properly, XYZ- or HSI-compatible image processing must be performed on the computer side.
  • Page 35: Counter And Timer Control Function

    SW-4000TL-SFP Counter And Timer Control Function This camera supports only the counter function. The counter function counts up change points in the camera’s internal signals using the camera’s internal counter, and reads that information from the host side. This function is useful for verifying error conditions via the count value using internal camera operations.

  • Page 38: Connecting Rotary Encoders

    SW-4000TL-SFP Connecting Rotary Encoders This camera can generate trigger signals or detect the scanning direction of the subject in response to signals output from the rotary encoder. ■ Adjustment procedure Input the two signals (phase A and phase B) from the rotary encoder.
  • Page 39: Frame Start Trigger

    SW-4000TL-SFP Frame Start Trigger In this camera, Data Leader and Data Trailer are added every frame. The number of lines of one frame is set by Offset Y, Height of [Image Format Control]. Offset Y’s setting range is 0 to 4096.
  • Page 40: Binning Function

    SW-4000TL-SFP Binning Function The binning function allows you to combine the signal values of clusters of adjacent pixels to create improved virtual pixels. Using the function results in images with lower pixel resolution and higher sensitivity. This camera performs vertical binning via digital addition in the sensor.
  • Page 41: Chunk Data Function

    SW-4000TL-SFP Chunk Data Function The Chunk Data function adds camera configuration information to the image data that is output from the camera.
