GigE Camera and Drivers Features V3.0.0

This document is a master document for all Allied Vision GigE camera models and is NOT camera specific

Hue [Float] R/W

Alters color of image without altering white balance. Takes float input,

although rounds to integer. Only valid when using on-camera interpolated

PixelFormats .

IODMode [Enum] R/W

Set camera to continuous or Image on Demand (IOD) mode.

Iris

Auto iris lens support. Supported auto iris lens types (camera dependent):

video, DC, and P-Iris. GT series detects lens type on power up. DC settings will

not apply if P-Iris lens connected. P-Iris settings will not apply if DC-Iris lens

connected.

The auto iris algorithm calculates IrisAutoTarget based on information of

the current image, and applies this to the next image. Large changes in scene

lighting may require 2-3 frames for the algorithm to stabilize. Adding simulta-

Range: Camera dependent Default: 0.00 Unit: Degrees

Continuous

• The camera requires no external exposure signal

• The camera generates a constant exposure time inde-

pendently. The exposure time is equal to frame readout

time and cannot be adjusted

Bigeye G-132B Cool, Bigeye G-283B Cool, and Bigeye G-

1100B Cool achieve maximum frame rate in continuous

mode only.

IOD [Default] Enables IOD mode. In this mode the camera needs

an external trigger signal or a timer driven internal expo-

sure signal

LineIn1 The camera is switched between IOD and Continuous

mode, dependent on the level of LineIn1

LineIn2 The camera is switched between IOD and Continuous

mode, dependent on the level of LineIn2

LineIn3 The camera is switched between IOD and Continuous

mode, dependent on the level of LineIn3

LineIn4 The camera is switched between IOD and Continuous

mode, dependent on the level of LineIn4

LineIn5 The camera is switched between IOD and Continuous

mode, dependent on the level of LineIn5

Note



If Continuous mode is activated, no external expo-

sure signal is allowed. Set e.g. TriggerSelector

to FrameStart and TriggerSource to an

unused external trigger Line.
