10 Basler ace
6. Click the icon in the Menu Bar to place the camera into continuous image capture mode.
The images captured by the camera will be displayed in a display window as shown below.
7. Focus the lens so that you get a good image.
Notice that if you vary the light intensity on the object, the camera will automatically adjust the
image quality. This happens because the auto gain and exposure controls are on continuously.
8. Now that you have started capturing images you should familiarize yourself with how three
important parameters influence the quality of the captured images. But before you do this, you
must disable the automatic controls that you enabled earlier:
a. Go back to the Acquisition Controls group and set the Exposure Auto parameter to Off.
b. Go back to the Analog Controls group and set the Gain Auto parameter to Off.
You can now adjust the parameters "manually", and the camera’s automatic controls will not try
to change your adjustments.
9. Go to the Analog Controls group and find the Gain (Raw) parameter. Use the slider next to the
parameter to increase and decrease the parameter value. This parameter determines how
much amplification is applied to the pixel values captured by the camera’s sensor. Notice how
the changes affect the apparent brightness of the images.
10. In the Analog Controls group, find the Black Level (Raw) parameter. Use the slider next to the
parameter to increase and decrease the parameter value. This parameter adds or subtracts an
offset to the pixel values captured by the camera’s sensor. Notice how the changes affect the
contrast in the images.
