11.12.4Auto Function Profile
If you want to use the gain auto function and the exposure auto function at the same time, you must
also set the auto function profile. The auto function profile assigns priorities between related auto
functions: The auto function profile specifies whether gain or exposure time shall be kept as low as
possible during adjustments until a target average gray value for the pixel data of the related Auto
Function AOI is reached.
To use the gain auto function and the exposure auto function at the same time, carry out the
following steps:
1. Set the auto function profile to specify whether gain or exposure time shall be minimized during
adjustments.
2. Set the gain auto function to the "continuous" mode of operation.
3. Set the exposure auto function to the "continuous" mode of operation.
You can set the auto function profile from within your application software by using the pylon API.
The following code snippets illustrate using the API to set the auto function profile. As an example,
Gain Auto is set to be minimized during adjustments:
// Use GainAuto and ExposureAuto simultaneously
Camera.AutoFunctionProfile.SetValue( AutoFunctionProfile_GainMinimum );
Camera.GainAuto.SetValue( GainAuto_Continuous );
Camera.ExposureAuto.SetValue( ExposureAuto_Continuous );
For detailed information about using the pylon API, refer to the Basler pylon Programmer’s Guide
and API Reference.
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the parameters.
