KM 10:41 AM Support: RE: High/Low gain mode using 8bpp-12bpp

Mike, is there a similar bias in the 8bit and 12bit modes?
If so what is it?
Does 12bit pack into 11bits in those modes?

Ah, ok well that explains it! No problem, just good to know what is happening.
Thanks.

There is a 20 count bias in the data. It's a bug in the mode you are using.
During calibrated high/low gain blending (normal operation), there is a 20 count bias added (digitally) to each of the channels prior to the blending.

I use MATLAB to look at and process the data. Knowing that the data is packed into the lower 11 helps answers my question.
Using only 11bits should produce a maximum pixel value of 2047 but I am getting pixel values that peak at 2067. ... Kyle McKinney

Hi Kyle,
Are you using XCAP (the epix frame grabber) or MityViewer to look at the data?
When you switch to single channel, all of the data scaling is removed and the data is packed into the lower 11 bits of the 16 bit word.

KM 04:51 PM Support: Source Code for Camera Link Control Panel

Would it be possible to get the code behind this program?
I would like to be able to include the functionality of talking
to the camera in the software I use to collect imagery. Kyle McKinney

KM 04:47 PM Support: High/Low gain mode issue using 16bpp

I am having issues using 16bit mode with any gain mode other than combine.
Data is transmitted but no matter the light level I get darkness. As I
change the light level the overall average pixel value does change so
something is happ... Kyle McKinney
