Syntax
INT is_Blacklevel(HIDS hCam, UINT nCommand, void* pParam, UINT cbSizeOfParam)
Beschreibung
is_Blacklevel() controls the black level correction of the camera which might improve the image quality under
certain circumstances. By default, the sensor adjusts the black level value for each pixel automatically. If the
environment is very bright, it can be necessary to adjust the black level manually.
Black level correction - Auto
Black level correction - Auto +
offset
Black level correction with
offset only
The nCommand input parameter is used to select the function mode. The pParam input parameter depends on the
selected function mode. If you select functions for setting or returning a value, pParam contains a pointer to a
variable of the UINT type. The size of the memory area to which pParam refers is specified in the
cbSizeOfParam input parameter.
