0 to 12.0 dB, in 0.1 dB increments. For more information, see "

Black level (in DN) Specifies the sensor black level, in digital number, which is the value assigned to a pixel in a
digital image. Possible values range from 0 to 1023 (1/4 DN for 8-bit mode, 1 DN for 10-bit
mode). See details below.
Binning Horizontal Enables or disables horizontal binning. Possible values are Disabled or 2 pixels. When set to 2

Binning Vertical Enables or disables the vertical binning. Possible values are Disabled or 2 lines. When set to 2
