AW00089316000 Image Acquisition Control
Basler ace GigE 145
If you are working with an acA750-30 camera:
Use the Field 0 or the Field 1 field output mode instead of the Concatenated New Fields or the
Deinterlaced New Fields field output mode. With the Field 0 or the Field 1 modes, you can get
approximately twice the frame rate, but you will be getting half height frames.
If you are working with an acA2000-50 or acA2040-25 camera:
Using the stacked zone imaging feature increases the camera’s frame rate.
For more information on the stacked zone imaging feature, see Section 10.6 on page 228.
For more information about AOI settings, see Section 10.5 on page 225.
For more information about the packet size and inter-packet delay settings and about the settings
that determine the bandwidth assigned to the camera, see Appendix B on page 349.
An important thing to keep in mind is a common mistake new camera users
frequently make when they are working with exposure time. They will often use a
very long exposure time without realizing that this can severely limit the camera’s
maximum allowed frame rate. As an example, assume that your camera is set to
use a 1/2 second exposure time. In this case, because each frame acquisition will
take at least 1/2 second to be completed, the camera will only be able to acquire
a maximum of two frames per second. Even if the camera’s nominal maximum
frame rate is, for example, 100 frames per second, it will only be able to acquire
two frames per second because the exposure time is set much higher than
normal.
