When the area of interest feature is used, the maximum allowed line rate may increase. For more
information about the impact of the AOI settings on the maximum allowed line rate, see Section 4.3
on page 74.
Using the AOI Feature with Horizontal Binning Enabled
If the camera’s horizontal binning feature (see Section 3.8 on page 59) is enabled, it will have an
effect on the way that you set up the area of interest. With horizontal binning enabled, pairs of
adjacent pixel in a line are binned together into a single pixel. When you set an AOI with horizontal
binning enabled, the AOI settings are based on "binned" pixels rather than the actual physical pixels
in the sensor lines.
If you are working with a camera that has sensor lines with 2048 physical pixels and you enable
horizontal binning, you effectively reduce the resolution to 1024 "binned" pixels. In this case, you
would set the AOI as if you were working with a sensor that actually has 1024 pixels and the
guidelines for working with this situation would be:
The AOI Starting Pixel can be set to 1 and can be increased in increments of 16 (e.g., it can be
set to 1, 17, 33, etc.).
The AOI Length must be a minimum of 128 pixels can be increased in increments of 16 (e.g.,
the length can be set to 128, 144, 160, etc.).
The AOI Starting Pixel + AOI Length
≤ 1025.
If you are working with a camera that has sensor lines with 4096 physical pixels and you enable
horizontal binning, you effectively reduce the resolution to 2048 "binned" pixels. In this case, you
would set the AOI as if you were working with a sensor that actually has 2048 pixels and the
guidelines for working with this situation would be:
The AOI Starting Pixel can be set to 1 and can be increased in increments of 16 (e.g., it can be
set to 1, 17, 33, etc.).
The AOI Length must be a minimum of 128 pixels can be increased in increments of 16 (e.g.,
the length can be set to 128, 144, 160, etc.).
The AOI Starting Pixel + AOI Length
≤ 2049.
If you are working with a camera that has sensor lines with 8192 physical pixels and you enable
horizontal binning, you effectively reduce the resolution to 4096 "binned" pixels. In this case, you
would set the AOI as if you were working with a sensor that actually has 4096 pixels and the
guidelines for working with this situation would be:
The AOI Starting Pixel can be set to 1 and can be increased in increments of 16 (e.g., it can be
set to 1, 17, 33, etc.).
The AOI Length must be a minimum of 128 pixels can be increased in increments of 16 (e.g.,
the length can be set to 128, 144, 160, etc.).
The AOI Starting Pixel + AOI Length
≤ 4097.
