CAMELIA 8M Digital Camera
1986B–IMAGE–03/03
R.O.I (REGIONS OF
INTEREST)
Caution: This function is available only since the 5th October 2001 with the Camera S/N:
01321093. For older Cameras, these commands aren’t available and can corrupt the
EEPROM (see “Camera Identification” on page 13).
CAMELIA 8M (both Color and Black & White) can operate in a “multi ROI” mode allow-
ing masking of regions of the image and thus increasing frame rate by a reduced
readout time.
User defines up to 5 windows to be masked. In addition he specifies starting and ending
addresses for each window.
Time reduction: about 92 µsec per masked line.
Two steps (under RS232 controls or Commcam):
• Enter the list of starting and ending addresses by the command:
Y=ssss/eeee/ssss/eeee/…/eeee/
• Enter the number of regions masked by the command: F=X (X=0 to 5)
Rules The line addresses must be a multiple of 4 (to be compliant with the binning).
The Image starts at Line 0 and ends at Line 3499 and the smallest area is of 4 lines.
The commands must be send in the following order: “Y=…” then “F=…”.
For FGT Software Users, the user has to resize the number of lines in FGT settings.
Example In order to mask 3 regions in the “wafer image” defined as following:
• The First 304 lines at the top of the image (blue background)
• 748 lines in the center of the image (two center lines of the wafer)
• The last 304 lines of the image (blue background):
– "Y=0/304/1376/2124/3196/3499/"
–"F=3"
In this example readout time will be reduced of 1356 lines equivalent to 125 ms.
