5.8.3 Pixel Map – Table Upload/Download
The Camera Control Software allows the user to upload or download a custom pixel map. This
feature is useful if a pixel substitution algorithm is run off line. The user can capture a digital
image via the Camera Link interface, calculate the custom pixel map, and upload the custom pixel
map to the camera. To upload or download, select the Upload to Camera or Download to PC
button and follow the windows prompts.
If downloading a custom pixel map, the user is prompted to save the file to PC. The saved file
has an extension of .cpm. The .cpm table contains only the pixel substitution data. File size will
vary depending on the detector array format but is typically between 20-100Kbytes.
