The below chapters will enable the user to operate a camera system including a CMOS industrial camera LOGLUX i5 CL, and to fully exploit the camera functions by applying the supplied LOGLUX LuxWare configuration tool. -
Page 5: The Cmos Industrial Camera Loglux I5 Cl
Manual: CMOS Industrial Camera LOGLUX i5 The CMOS industrial camera LOGLUX i5 CL The CMOS industrial camera LOGLUX i5 CL is one of the latest and most modern products from the ‚industrial image processing CMOS camera‘ range of KAMERA WERK DRESDEN GmbH. -
Page 6: The Dynamic (Contrast) Range Of The Ibis5 Sensor
Manual: CMOS Industrial Camera LOGLUX i5 The dynamic (contrast) range of the IBIS5 sensor In contrast to, say, CMOS sensors for multimedia applications, the IBIS5 has a very wide dynamic (contrast) range. This parameter describes the sensor's capability to show both very bright and very dark image parts in the active frame. - Page 7 Manual: CMOS Industrial Camera LOGLUX i5 Upon the completion of the last integration cycle, the residual potentials of the pixels are inverted and translated into digital numerical values. Please note that the multiple integration slope mode does not work when the rolling shutter mode is selected.

Page 8: The Shutter Modes Of The Ibis5 Sensor
The ‚central/snapshot shutter‘ mode should be used whenever undistorted images of moving objects are needed. Compared with the ‚rolling/curtain shutter’ mode, the image rate is lower. Page 8 of 46 Manual: CMOS Industrial Camera LOGLUX i5 KAMERA WERK DRESDEN GmbH... -
Page 9: The Look-Up Tables (Luts) Of The Cmos Industrial Camera Loglux I5 Cl
The possibility of immediate real-time data manipulation in the camera is a great advantage of the CMOS industrial camera LOGLUX i5 CL. In addition to the fixed-programmed functions such as bit shifting operations, three user-specific, configurable look-up tables (LUTs) are available for the purpose. -
