Software based ROI (Soft-ROI) (only available for Camera Link)
This function calculates the Region of Interest via software. Due to
this functionality, the resolution of pco.edge cameras with Camera
Link interface can be adjusted in steps of 1 – 4 pixels.
Since the readout architecture of Camera Link cameras is not able to
address single pixels, this downsizing is done by software.
If you work with Camware or Device Adapters (µManager, Labview…)
or with PCO SDK, the Soft-ROI is disabled by default. For further
information, please see the SDK description.
ROI table with Soft-ROI Option enabled (only Camera Link)
Open regedit to control Soft-ROI: Under HKey-
Current-User/Software/PCO/ create a DWORD
value with the name SoftROI for each camera. Set
this value to 1 in order to enable Soft-ROI. Remove or
set this value to 0 in order to disable Soft-ROI by
default. Keep in mind that unsymmetrical ROI
decreases FPS. Table above shows values for Soft-
ROI enabled.
