Baumer VCXG .I - Adding Defect Pixels to List

86
7.5.3 Add Defect Pixel to Defectpixellist
As stated previously, this list is determined within the production process of Baumer cam-
eras and stored in the factory settings.
Additional hot or cold pixels can develop during the lifecycle of a camera. In this case
Baumer offers the possibility of adding their coordinates to the defectpixellist.
The user can determine the coordinates
1)
of the affected pixels and add them to the list.
Once the defect pixel list is stored in a user set, pixel correction is executed for all coordi-
nates on the defectpixellist.
Notice
There are defect pixels, which occur only under certain environmental parameters.
These include temperatures or exposure settings.
Complete defect pixels that occur in your application.
Procedure
1. Start the Camera Explorer. Connect to the camera. Select the prole GenICam
Expert.
2. Open the category LUT Control.
3. Locate an empty Defect Pixel List Index.
(Defect Pixel List Entry PosX = 0 / Defect Pixel List Entry PosY = 0)
Avoid using existing coordinates!
4. Determine the coordinates of the defect pixel. Keep the mouse pointer over the
defect pixel. The coordinates of the defect pixel is displayed in the status bar.
For simplication, you can enlarge the image.
5. Enter the determined coordinates for X (Defect Pixel List Entry PosX).
Enter the determined coordinates for Y (Defect Pixel List Entry PosY).
6. Activate the registered Defect Pixel List Index (Defect Pixel List Entry Active =
True).
7. Stop the camera and start them again to take over the updated coordinates.
8. Save your settings in a User Set (Category: User Set Control). Coordinates,
which are not stored in an user set will be lost after power reset.
1) Position in relation to Full Frame Format (Raw Data Format / No ipping).
