  • Page 41: Graphical User Interface

    Overview The RMV cameras are feature rich and to some rather complicated to interface. To ease the introduction to the RMV command set and allow easy user control of the cameras illunis has provided a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI is a visual program that consists of several windows, menus and dialog boxes for each of the many features of the RMV camera.

  • Page 45: Exposure Modes

    The free run mode outputs image continuously using a rolling shutter for exposure. In the trigged mode the RMV-71 waits for a trigger, either on the camera link or external source, then exposes the im- age and reads it from the sensor. In either mode the exposure must be programmed into the camera and can be specified in milliseconds or microseconds.

  • Page 54 5.4: Image Processing Black Offset and Flat Field Correction The CHR70M sensor used in the RMV-71 requires image processing for optimal operation. The sensor incorporates a dark field offset correction on chip. The offset correction will correct the 16 column analog offsets through digital to analog convert- ers.
  • Page 55 The flatter the field presented to the sensor the better the correction will be. The RMV-71 processes the flat field in two passes, one for the even numbered col- umns and one for the odd numbered columns. A total of 10,000 column gains are cal- culated and saved in the EEPROM of the camera, this may take over a minute to com- plete.

    Once an acceptable solution is found the calibra- tion data will be saved to EEPROM and the re- sults display in the OSD. You may now remove the lens cap and use the camera. RMV-71 Operations Copyright illunis LLC, 5/19/2014 Page 57...
