12.10 Disable Parameter Limits
For each camera parameter, the allowed range of parameter values normally is limited. The factory
limits are designed to ensure optimum camera operation and, in particular, good image quality. For
special camera uses, however, it may be helpful to set parameter values outside of the factory limits.
The disable parameter limits feature lets you disable the factory parameter limits for certain
parameters. When the factory parameter limits are disabled, the parameter values can be set within
extended limits. Typically, the range of the extended limits is dictated by the physical restrictions of
the camera’s electronic devices, such as the absolute limits of the camera’s variable gain control.
The values for the extended limits can be seen using the Basler pylon Viewer or from within your
application via the pylon API.
Disabling Parameter Limits
To disable the limits for a parameter:
Use the Parameter Selector to select the parameter whose limits you wish to disable.
Set the value of the Remove Limits parameter.
You can set the Parameter Selector and the value of the Remove Limits parameter 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:
// Select the feature whose factory limits will be disabled
Camera.ParameterSelector.SetValue( ParameterSelector_Gain );
// Disable the limits for the selected feature
Camera.RemoveLimits.SetValue( true );
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. Note that the
disable parameter limits feature will only be available at the "guru" viewing level.
For more information about the pylon Viewer, see Section 3.1 on page 43.
Currently, the parameter limits can only be disabled on the Gain feature.
