Page 60: General Features
When decimation is chosen, only every n-th pixel is used to create the output image. For example, with a 2x1 vertical skipping, every odd number line is used and every even number line is skipped, resulting in an image with half its original vertical resolution. Skipping is a faster downsampling mode, but also introduces more aliasing effects. XIMEA Technical Manual, Version: v230927... -
Page 61: Image Data Output Formats
When using Transport Data Format, the Image Processing block from XiAPI Image Data Flow is skipped and therefore the Transport format is the most effective data format in terms of CPU and RAM usage. Table 31: image formats XIMEA Technical Manual, Version: v230927... -

Page 64: Exposure Time
The gain value influences the analog-to-digital conversion process of the image sensor pipeline and acts as a multiplier of the output signal. Using gain values greater than 0 will increase the pixel intensities but may also increase the overall noise level. For some camera models the gain can be set in discrete steps only.

Supported vision libraries All XIMEA cameras are compatible with the most advanced vision and image processing libraries. For GUI based software packages, the cameras can be directly accessed without the need of programming. Code libraries are generally used in conjunction with one of our APIs, in order to add additional functionality (e.g. -
Page 81: Programming
On Windows: xiAPI is compiled into xiapi32.dll or xiapi64.dll • On Linux: xiAPI is compiled into /usr/lib/libm3api.so Installation xiAPI is part of all current XIMEA software packages for Windows, Linux and MacOS. For information on the software packages, see XIMEA Software Packages. - Page 82 (e.g. 106 - Parameter not supported). Note: Since xiAPI is a unified programming interface for all of XIMEA‘s cameras, not all of the described parameters apply for every camera and sensor model.
