Setting the Black Level
The black level can be adjusted by changing the value of the Black Level Raw parameter. The Black
Level Raw parameter value can range from 0 to 255 on all camera models except the scA750-60
gm/gc. On scA750-60 gm/gc cameras, the parameter value can range from 0 to 64. On scA1300-
32 gm/gc and scA1400-30 gm/gc cameras, the parameter value can range from 0 to 1023.
1. Set the Black Level Selector to Black Level All.
2. Set the Black Level Raw parameter to your desired value.
You can set the Black Level Selector and the Black Level Raw parameter value from within your
application software by using the pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to
set the selector and the parameter value:
Camera.BlackLevelSelector.SetValue ( BlackLevelSelector_All );
Camera.BlackLevelRaw.SetValue( 32 );
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.
For more information about the pylon Viewer, see Section 3.1 on page 43.
