Genie Nano Series Overview

Description

The Genie Nano series, a member of the Genie camera family, provides a new series of affordable easy t o use digital cameras specifically engineer ed for industrial imaging applic ations requiring improved network integration.

Genie Nano cameras use the industries’ latest leading sensors such as the Sony Pregius series and On-Semi Python series of global shutter active pixel-type CMOS image sensors.

Genie Nano cameras combine standard gigabit Ethernet technology (supporting GigE Vision 1.2) with the Teledyne DALSA Trigger-to-Image-Reliability framework to dependably capture and transfer images from the camera to the host PC. Genie Nano cameras are available in a number of models implementing different sensors, image resolutions, and feature sets, either in monochrome, monochrome N IR, or color versions.

GigE with TurboDrive

Genie Nano cameras include TurboDrive™ technology, delivering high speed data transfers exceeding the GigE limit. TurboDrive uses advanced data modeling to boost data transfers up to 2 or 3 times faster than standard GigE Vision speeds – with no loss of image quality. These breakthrough rates are achieved using a proprietary process that assembles data from the sensor to optimize throughput, simultaneously taking full advantage of both the sensor’s maximum frame rate and the camera’s maximum GigE data transfer speed (up to 1 1 5 Mbytes/s). Teledyne DALSA’s

TurboDrive increases system dependability and robustness similar to Camera Link throughput on a

GigE network. Important: Actual Transfers with TurboDrive is image content dependent but in the best case

scenario, transfers over a GigE Network can reach the camera’s internal acquisition limit of up to 252MB/sec. If transfers are less than the camera maximum acquisition rate, camera memory will be used as a circular frame buffer. Note: Not supported with RGB output firmware on any model due to camera resource limitations.

Refer to TurboDrive Primer on the Teledyne DALSA web site for more details.

GigE Firmware

Firmware updates for Genie Nano are available for download from the Teledyne DALSA web site

www.teledynedalsa.com/imaging/support/downloads. Choose Genie Nano Firmware from the

available download sections, then choose the zip file download specific to your camera model. When using Sapera LT, update the camera firmware using CamExpert (see File Access via the

CamExpert Tool).

The Camera firmware can also be easily upgrade/downgrade within your own application via the API. The camera has a failsafe scheme which prevents unrecoverable camera errors even in the case of a power interruption.

Supplemental Usage Notes:

Reduced Operating Temperature: The model C4900 has a reduced maximum temperature specification (-20°C to +50°C / -4°F to +122°F) as specified in section Genie Nano Common

Specifications. This temperature specification is measured at the front plate. If the camera

temperature is exceeded, the camera’s acquisition or any other camera operation may lock up. Simply cool a nd reset the camera to resume normal operation.

Exposer Time Locked during Acquisition: Unlike other Nano models, the Nano C4900 does not allow exposure time changes during an active acquisition. Freeze the acquisition first, then make an exposure time change.

Guide to Using a Rolling Shutter Camera

The Genie Nano C4900 implements the On-Semi AR1820HS rolling shutter sensor to achieve a high pixel density – low c ost solution for a number of imaging implementations.

Characteristics

Rolling shutter sensor cameras have different usage characteristics and thus provide different application solutions compared to the Nano global shutter models. The following points highlight those differences:

• Rolling shutter cameras have a simpler design with smaller pixels, allowing higher resolutions for a given sensor physical area. As an example mobile phones use rolling shutter sensors.

• Depending on the imaging requirements, the higher density pixel array may require a higher quality lens. Lens specifications define t he Resolution and Contra st/Modulation attributes which must be considered. This commonly used gauge is the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) which is extensively covered by lens suppliers to qualify their products. Consider reading

https://www.edmundoptics.com/resources/application-notes/optics/introduction-to-modulation-transfer-function/ as

an initial start to understanding MTF.

• A rolling shutter sensor exposes, samples, and reads out sequentially, as part of the design criteria to achieve a higher pixel density via simplified circuitry.

• Rolling shutter sensors generate less heat which translates to a lower noise level (SNR).

• Global shutter CMOS sensors require a more complicated circuit architecture, thus limiting the

pixel density for a given physical size.

Rolling Shutter Trade-offs

When selecting a rolling shutter camera, the user needs to understand that the cam era is not suitable for all machine vision applications. Limitations are such as:

• A rolling shutter cam era is unsuitable for app lications like barcode scanning, machine vision, or automated inspection systems, which require the imaging of rapidly moving objects.

• Moving objects are subject to temporal distortions best described as positional errors (shifts) from the top of an object to its bottom, due to how individual lines are exposed (detailed below).

• Rolling shutter cameras using Global Reset Release mode (GRR) are not suitable for moving objects in well-lit environments.

• Degree of distortions change as exposure time is increased or decreased.

• Use of a strobe flash with a controlled duration, in a dark imaging environment, is required to

eliminate positional distortions.

• The Internet has many sources and examples of the visual distortions due t o Rolling Shutter sensors, mostly in reference to using cell phones and consumer cameras. The guidelines that follow will permit the successful usage of rolling shutter cameras in machine vison applications.

Guide to ERS or GRR Exposure Modes.

The following two pages provide overviews on using either the typical Electronic Rolling Shutter (ERS) Exposures or Global Reset Release (GRR) Exposures modes. Overall these two exposure

types have similar constraints but need to be understood fo r a successful application.

Nano Series GigE Vision Camera Genie Nano Specifications

Overview of Electronic Rolling Shutter (ERS) Exposures

Referring to the following graphic:

• Each sensor line is exposed for the programmed time integration period.

• Exposures start with Line 1. The sensor design uses a shared line readout circuit. Due to this

simplified circuit ry, only a single line of pixel data can be readout at any given time. Therefore the line 2 exposure (integration period) is delayed by the required readout time of line 1.

• This delayed line exposure is repeated from the sensor’s first line to its last sensor line.

• This sequence allows the common readout circuit to read the data from each row. This results

in an exposure start time delay between the first to last row - thus the name rolling shutter.

• To avoid motion artifacts the user needs to freeze m otion using flash lighting of suitable length in a dark environment. The flash is triggered at the start of the last line’s exposure and stops at the end of the first line’s exposure. The flash must maintain a constant light output during this period.

• To control the flash device, use the Genie Nano output signal with these feature selections :

outputLineSource=PulseOnStartofExposure, outputLinePulseDelay=flashZoneDelay (delay to the start of the last line exposure), outputLinePulseDuration=flashZoneDuration (optimal flash zone time as shown in the graphic below).

• The two new features mentioned, flashZoneDelay and flashZoneDuration, a utomatically

provide the optimal flash zone time v a lues no matter the exposure duration and any vertical cropping/offset settings. The user is free to use any delay or duration as required.

• The dark environment illumination ensures minimal exposure (and thus motion artifacts) during the sensor lines integration time occurring before and after the flash period.

70 • Genie Nano Specifications Nano Series GigE Vision Camera

•

Overview of Global Reset Release (GRR) Exposures

Referring to the following graphic:

• All sensor lines start integrating at the same time, therefore GRR mode is also known as Global Start Mode.

• The first sensor line (line 1) only is exposed for the programmed time integration period.

• As mentioned previously, the sensor design uses a shared line readout circuit. Therefore again,

only a single line of pixel data can be readout at any given time.

• With each sensor line starting integration at once, each fo llowing line's exposure is increased by the readout time required by the previous row.

• In a well-lit environment with static objects, there is a visible exposure increase from the top sensor row to the bottom sen s o r row.

• And again, with moving objects in a well-lit environment, there is motion blurring from top to bottom.

• Therefore as described previously, flash lighting in a dark environment is used to freeze motion. The flash period matches the integration period for line 1. The increasing exposures for the other sensor lines will not be visible w ithout any o t her illumination source.

• Use a Genie Nano output signal for flash control as described above.

Connecting the Genie Nano Camera

GigE Network Adapter Overview

Genie Nano connects to a computer’s Gigabit Network Adapter (NIC). If the computer is already connected to a network, the computer requires a second network adapter, either onboard or an additional PCIe NIC adapter. Refer to the Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging manual for information on optimizing network adapters for GigE Vision cameras.

PAUSE Frame Support

The Genie Nano supports (and monitors) the Gigabit Ethernet PAUSE Frame feature as per IEEE 802.3x. PAUSE Frame is the Ethernet flow control mechanism to manage network traffic within an Ethernet s witch when multiple camer as are simultaneously used . This requires that the flow control option in the NIC property settings and the Ethernet switch settings must be enabled. The user application can monitor the Pause Frame Received Event as describe in Event Controls. Refer to the Teledyne DALSA Ne twork Imaging manual for additional information.

Note: Some Ethernet Switches may produc e mor e Pause Frame requests than expected when Jumbo Frames is enable. Setting the Ethernet Packet Size to the default of 1500, may minimize Pause Requests from such a switch and improve overall transfer bandwidth.

Connect the Genie Nano Camera

Connecting a Genie Nano to a network system is similar whether using the Teledyne DALSA Sapera LT package or a third party GigE Vision development package.

• Power supplies must meet the requirements defined in section Input Signals Ele ctrical . Apply power to the camera.

• Connect Nano to the host computer GigE network adapter or to the Ethernet switch via a CAT5e or CAT6 Ethernet ca b le (the switch connects to the computer NIC to be used for imaging, not a corporate network). Note: the cable should not be less than 1 meter (3 feet) long or more than 100 meters (328 feet) long.

• Once communication with t he host computer is started the automatic IP configuration sequence will assign an LLA IP address as described in section Genie Nano IP Configuration Sequence, or a DHCP IP address if a DHCP server is present on your network (such as the one installed with Sapera LT).

• Check the status LED which will be initially red then switch to flashing blue while waiting for IP configuration. See Camera Status LED for Nano LED display descriptions.

Connectors

The Nano has two connectors:

• A single RJ45 Ethernet connector for control and video data transmitted to/from the host computer Gigabit NIC. The Genie Nano also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE). See Ruggedized RJ45 Ethernet Cables for secure cables.

• A 10 pin I/O connector for camera power, plus trigger, strobe and general I/O signals. The connector support s a ret ention latch, while the Nano case supports thumbscrews. Teledyne DALSA provides optional cables (see Accessories). See 10-pin I/O Connector Details for connector pin out specifications.

• Note that the NanoXL uses the same two connectors but on a larger camera body.

The following figure of the Genie Nano back end shows connector and LED locations. See Mechanical Specifications for deta ils o n t he connectors and camera mounting dimensions, including the NanoXL.

LED Indicators

The Genie Nano has one m ultico lor LED to provide a simple visible indication of camera state, as described below. The Nano Ethernet connector does not have indicator LEDs; the user should use the LED status on the Ethernet switch or computer NIC to observe networking status.

Camera Status LED Indicator

The camera is equipped with one LED to display its operational status. When more than one condition is active, t he LED color indicates t he condition with the highes t priority (such as – an acquisition in progress has more priority than a val id IP address assignment).

Once the Genie Nano connects to a network and an IP address is assigned, the Status LED will turn to steady blue. Only at this time will it be possible by the GigE Se rv er or any application to communicate with the camera. The following table summarizes the LED states and corresponding camera status.

LED States on Power Up

The following LED sequence occurs when the Genie Nano is powered up connected to a network.

Nano Series GigE Vision Camera Connecting the Genie Nano Camera

Genie Nano IP Configuration Sequence

The Genie Nano IP (Internet Protocol) Configuration sequence to assign an IP addre ss is executed automatically on camera power-up or when connected to a network. As a GigE Vision compliant device, Nano attempts to assign an IP address as follows.

For any GigE Vision device, the IP configuration protocol sequence is:

• Persistent IP (if enabled)

• DHCP (if a DHCP server is present such as the Teledyne DALSA Smart DHCP server)

• Link-Local Address (always enabled as default)

The factory defaults for Nano is Persistent IP disabled and DHCP enabled with LLA always enabled as per the GigE Visio n specification. F or additional information see Nano IP Configuration Mode Details.

Supported Network Configurations

The Genie Nano obtains an IP address using the Link Local Address (LLA) or DHCP, by default. If required, a persistent IP address can be assigned (refer to the Network Imaging manual).

Preferably, a DHCP server is present on the network, where the Genie Nano issues a DHCP request for an IP address. The DHCP server then provides the Nano an IP address. The Teledyne DALSA Network Configurati on tool, installed with th e Sapera Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging Package, provides a DHCP server which is easily enabled on the NIC used with the Genie Nano (refer to the Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging user’s manual).

The LLA method, if used, automatically assigns the Nano with a randomly chosen address on the

169.254.xxx.xxx subnet. After an address is chosen, the link-local process sends an ARP query with that IP onto the network to see if it is already in use. If there is no response, the IP is assigned to the device, otherwise another IP is selected, and the ARP is repeated. Note that the LLA mode is unable to forward packets across routers.

Preventing Operational Faults due to ESD

Nano camera installations which do not protect agains t ESD (electrostatic discharge) may exhibit operational faults. Problems such as random packet loss, random camera resets, and random loss of Ethernet connections, may all be solved by proper ESD management.

The Nano camera when used with a simple power supply and Ethernet cable, is not properly connected to ear th ground and therefore is s usceptible to ESD caused problems. An Eth ern et ca ble has no ground connection and a power supply’s 0 volt return line is not necessarily connected to e a r th ground.

Teledyne DALSA has performed ESD testing on Nano cameras using an 8 kilovolt ESD generator without any indication of operational faults. The two following methods, either individually or together will prevent ESD problems.

• Method 1: Use a shielded/grounded power supply that connects ground to pin-10 of the I/O connector. The Nano case is now properly connected to earth ground and can withstand ESD of 8 kilovolts, as tested by Teledyne DALSA.

• Method 2: When using Po wer over Ethernet (PoE), Teledyne DALSA strongly recommends using a shielded Ethernet cable to provide a ground connection from the controlling computer/power supply, to the Genie Nano. PoE requires a powered computer NIC, or a powered Ethernet switch, or an Ethernet power injector.

• Method 3: Mount the camera on a metallic platform with a good connection to earth ground.

Nano Series GigE Vision Camera Connecting the Genie Nano Camera

Using Nano with Sapera API

A Genie Nano camera installation with the Teledyne DALSA Sapera API generally follows the sequence described below.

Network and Computer Overview

• Nano needs to connect to a computer with a GigE network adapter, either built in on the computer motherboard or installed as a third party PCI adapter. See the previous section Connecting the Genie Nano Camera.

• Laptop computers with built in GigE network adapters may still not be able to stream full frame rates from Nano, especially when on battery power.

• Nano also can connect through a Gi gabit Ethernet switch. When using VLAN groups, the Nano and controlling computer must be in the same group (refer to the Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging Package user’s manual).

• If Genie Nano is to be used in a Sapera development environment, Sapera LT 8.10 needs to be installed, which includes the GigE Vision Module software package with the Teledyne DALSA GigE Vision TurboDrive Technology module.

• If Genie Nano will be used in a third party GigE Vision Compliant environment, Sapera or Sapera runtime is not required and you need to follow the installation instructions of the third party package.

• The Windows Firewall exceptions feature is automatically configured to allow the Sapera GigE Server to pass through the firewall.

• Computers with VPN software (virtual private network) may need to have the VPN driver disabled in the NIC properties. This would be required only on the NIC used with the Nano. Testing by the user is required.

• Once a Nano is connected, look at the small camera icon added to the Windows tray (next to the clock). Ensure the Nano camera has been found (right click the icon and selec t S ta tus) Note that in Windows 7, the icon remains hidden until a cam era is connected.

• A new Nano installation may require a firmware upd at e. The File Selector feature is used to select a firmware file. See the CamExpert procedure Updating Firmware via File Access in CamExpert for additiona l in f ormat io n .

• Use CamExpert (installed either with Sapera or Sapera runtime) to test the installation of the Nano camera. Set the Nano to internal test pattern. See Internal Test Pattern Generator.

• Set up the other components of the imaging system such as light sources, camera mounts, optics, encoders, trigger sources, etc. Test with CamExpert.

Installation

Note: to install Sapera LT and the GigE Visio n package , logon to the work s tation as an administrator or with an account that has administrator privile ges.

When Genie Nano is used in a Sapera development environment, Sapera LT 8.10 (or later) needs to be installe d, whic h automatically provides all GigE Vision camera support including TurboDrive.

If no Sapera development is required. Then the Sapera LT SDK is not needed to control the Linea GigE camera. Sapera runtime with CamExpert provides everything to control the camera.

Procedure

• Download and install Sapera LT 8.10 (or later) which automatically provides GigE Vision support with Teledyne DALSA TurboDrive™ technology. Note that Nano features m ay change when an older versions of Sapera LT is used.

• Optional: If the Teledyne DALSA Sapera LT SDK package is not used, click to install the Genie Nano firmware and user manuals only. Follow the on screen prompts.

• Connect the camera to an available free Gigabit NIC that’s not part of some other corporate network.

Refer to Sapera LT User’s Manual concerning application development with Sapera.

Note: The Teledyne DALSA Sapera CamExpert tool (us ed thro ug hout this manua l to describe Genie Nano features) is installed with either the Sapera LT runtime or the Sapera LT development package.

Camera Firmware Updates

Under Windows, the user can upload new firmware, using the File Access Control features provided by the Sapera CamExpert tool.

GigE Server Verification

After a successful Genie Nano Framework package installation, the GigE Server icon is visible in the desktop taskbar tray area (note that in Windows 7 the icon remains hidden until a came ra is connected). After connecting a camera (see following section), allow a few seconds for the GigE Server status to update. The Nano camera must be on the same subnet as the NIC to be recognized by the GigE Server.

The GigE server tray icon shows a warning when a device is connected but there is some type of IP error.

A red X will remain over the GigE server tray icon when the Genie device is not found. This indicates a major network issue. Or in the simplest case, the Genie is not connected.

If you place your mouse cursor on this icon, the GigE Server wil l display the number of GigE Vision devices found by your PC. Right click the icon and se lect status to view information about those devices. See Troubleshooting for more information.

GigE Server Status

Once the Genie Nano is assigned an IP address (its Status LED is steady blue) the GigE server tray icon will not have a red X through it, indicating that the Nano device was found. It might take a few seconds for the GigE Server to refresh its state after the Nano has obtained an IP address.

Right-click the GigE Server tray icon to open the following menu.

Click on Show Status to open a window listing all devices connected to the host system. Each GigE device is listed by name along with important information such as the assigned IP address and device MAC address. The screen shot below shows a connected Nano with no networking problems.

In the event that the device is physically connected, but the Sapera GigE Server icon is indicating that the connected device is not recognized, click Scan Network to restart the discovery process. Note that the GigE server periodically scans the network automatically to refresh its state. See Troubleshooting for network problems.

Optimizing the Network Adapter used with Nano

Most Gigabit network interface controllers (NIC) allow user modifications to parameters such as Adapter Buffers and Jumbo Frames. These should be optimized f or use with the Nano during the installation. Refer to the NetworkOptimizationGuide.pdf for optimization information (available with the Sapera LT installation [C:\Program Files\Teledyne DALSA\N et work Interfac e] ) .

Quick Test with CamExpert (Windows)

When the Genie Nano camera is connected to a Gigabit network adapter on a host computer, testing the installation with CamExpert is a straightforward procedure.

• Start Sapera CamExpert by double clicking the desktop icon created during the software installation.

• CamExpert will search for installed Sapera devices. In the Device list area on the left side, the connected Nano camera is shown or will be listed in a few seconds after CamExpert completes the automatic device search (device discovery).

• Select the Nano camera device by clicking on the camera user defined name. By default the Nano camera is identified by its serial number. The Nano status LED will turn green, indicating the CamExpert application is now connected.

• Click on the Grab button for live acquisition (the Nano default is Free Running mode). Focus and adjust the lens iris. See Operational Reference for information on CamExpert parameters with the Nano camera.

• If the Nano has no lens, just select one of the internal test patterns available (Image Format Controls – Test Image Selector). All but one are static images to use with the Snap or Grab

function of CamExpert. The single “moving” test image is a shifting d ia g onal ramp pattern, which is useful for testing network/computer bandwidt h issue s (s e e fo llowing im age).

• Refer to the Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging package manual if error messages are shown in the Output Messages pane while grabbing.

Nano Series GigE Vision Camera Using Nano with Sapera API

About the Device User ID

The Nano can be programmed with a user defined name to aid identifying multiple cameras connected to the network. For instance, on an inspection system with 4 cameras, the first camera might be labeled “top view”, the second “left view”, the third “ right view” and the last one “bottom view”. The factory default user name is set to match the camera serial number for quick initial identification. Note that the factory programmed Genie Nano serial number and MAC address are not user changeable.

When using CamExper t , m ultiple Genie Nano cameras on the network are seen as different “Nano-xxxxx” devices as an example. Non Teledyne DAL SA cameras are labeled as “GigEVision Device”. Click on a device user name to select it for control by CamExpert.

An imaging application uses any one of these attributes to identify a camera: its IP address, MAC address, serial number or User Name. Some important considerations are listed below.

• Do not use the camera’s IP address as identification (unless it is a persistent IP) since it can change with each power cycle.

• A MAC address is unique to a single camera, therefore the control application is limited to the vision system with that unique camera if it uses the camera’s MAC address.

• The User Name can be freely programmed to clearly represent the camera usage. This scheme is recommended for an application to identify cameras. In this case, the vision system can be duplicated any number of times with cameras identified by their function, not their serial numbers or MAC address.

Using CamExpert with Genie Nano Cameras

The Sapera CamExpert tool is the interfacing tool for GigE Vision cameras, and is supported by the Sapera library and hardware. CamExpert allows a user to test camera functions. Additionally CamExpert saves the Nano user settings configuration to the camera or saves multiple configurations as individual camera parameter files on the host system (*.ccf).

An important component of CamExpert is its live acquisition display window which allows immediate verification of timing or control parameters without the need to run a separate acquisition program.

CamExpert Panes

The various areas of the CamExpert tool are described in the summary figure below. GigE Vision device Categories and Parameter features are displayed as per the device’s XML description file. The number of parameters shown is dependent on the View mode selected (i.e. Beginn er, Expert, Guru – see description below).

Nano Series GigE Vision Camera Operational Reference

• Device pane: View and select from any installed GigE Vision or Sapera acquisition device. After a device is selected CamExpert will only present parameters applicable to that device.

• Parameters pane: Allows viewing or changing all acquisition parameters supported by the acquisition device. CamExpert displays parameters only if those parameters are supported by the installed device. This avoids conf usion by eliminating parameter choices when they do not apply to the hardware in use.

• Display pane: Provides a live or single frame acquisition display. Frame buffer parameters are shown in an information b ar above the image window.

• Control Buttons: The Display pane includes CamExpert control buttons. These are:

Acquisition control button:

Click once to start live grab, click again to stop.

Single frame grab: Click to acquire one frame from device.

Power-up Configuration Dialog

CamExpert provides a dialog box which combines the features to select the camera power-up state and for the user to save or load a Nano camera state.

Camera Power-up Configuration

The first drop list selects the camera configuration state to load on power-up (see feature UserSetDefaultSelector). The user chooses from one factory data set or one of two possible user saved states.

Load / Save Configuration

The second drop list allows the user to change the camera configuratio n any time after a power-up (see feature UserSetSelector). To reset the camera to the factory configuration, select Factory Setting and click Load. To save a current camera configuration, select User Set 1 or 2 and click Save. Select a saved user set and click Load to restore a saved configuration.

Sensor Control Category

The Genie Nano sensor controls, as shown by CamExpert, groups sensor specific parameters. This group includes controls for frame rate, exposure time, gain, etc. Parameters in gray are read only, either always or due to other feature settings. Parameters in black are user set in CamExpert or programmable via an imaging application.

Features listed in the description table that are tagged as Invisible are usually for Teledyne DALSA or third party software usage—not typically needed by end user applications. Also important, features shown by CamExpert may change with different Genie Nano models imp lementing different sens ors, image resolutions, and color versions.

Sensor Control Feature Descriptions

The following table describes these features along with their view attribute and device version. For each feature the device version may differ for each camera sensor available.

When a Device Version number is indicated, this represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware revision number. As Genie Nano capabilities evolve the device version will increase, therefore identifying the supported function package. New features for a major device version release will be indicated by green text for easy identification.

The first column indicates whether a feature applies to monochrome or color camera models via a symbol. No symbol indicates a common feature. Additionally the description column will indicate which feature is a member of the DALSA Features Naming Convention (indicated by DFNC), versus the GenICam Standard Features Naming Convention (SFNC tag is not shown).

The Gain and Black level functions are applied at the sensor and/or on the digital image values output by the sensor, as described below.

• Gain Selector = Sensor: The gain function is a linear multiplier cont rol in 0.01 steps within the sensor hardware (range is “1-251”, which is a +48dB maximum gain).

• Gain: Sensor gain is applied first by an analog amplifier (multiplier range of “1-15.85”, i.e. +24dB) and then contin ues automatically via a digital amplifier as shown in the graphic below.

• Important: Digita l noise increases li nearly and quickly with higher gain values . Users should evaluate image quality with added gain.

• Gain (Raw): P ro v ides an alternative method to control sensor gain, where values entered are in 0.1dB increments. Therefore the range is 0 to 480 which controls a 0 to 48dB gain range.

• Gain Selector = Digital: The gain function controls the post sensor digital amplifier (available only on some models of Na no cameras). This gain factor is independent of any sensor gain set. This setting is a linear multiplying number of 1 to 4, in 0.1 steps).

• Black Level: This offset variable exists within the sensor. The Sony sensors allow an offset range between 0 and 511 DN. The factory settings default value for each sensor used by various Nano models, is recommended as per the sensor manufacturer design specifications.

Note: With the factory default offset, testing a camera’s black output in 8-bit mode may show a 2 DN value difference across the image. Changing the Black Level value up or down will push sensor noise (present at the sensors native bits per pixel) to fall within one 8-bit value, thus the noise becomes hidden.

The Gain and Black level functions are applied at the sensor and/or on the digital image values output by the sensor, as described below.

• Gain Selector = Sensor Analog: The gain f unction is a linear multiplier control in 0.01 steps within the sensor hardware (Gain range is “1-8”, which is a +18dB gain).

• Gain Selector = Sensor Digital: The gain function is a linear multiplier control in 0.01 steps within the sensor hardware (Gain range is “1-31.99”, which is +30dB gain).

• Important: Digital noise increases linearly and quickly with higher gain values. Users should evaluate image quality with added gain.

• Gain (Raw): Shows the raw sensor control for each gain stage or an alternative method to control sensor gain.

• Black Level: This offset variable exists within the sensor. The On-Semi sensors allow an offset range between 0 and 255 DN. The factory settings default value for each sensor used by various Nano models, is recommended as per the sensor manufacturer design specifications.

Note: With the factory default offset, testing a camera’s black output in 8-bit mode may show a 2 DN value differenc e ac ross the image. Changing the Black Level value up or down will push sensor noise (present at the sensors native bits per pixel) to fall within one 8-bit value, thus the noise becomes hidden.

OnSemi Python P1 Sensor Artifacts with Fast Readout Mode

Nano OnSemi (Python P1) sensor camera models with Fast Readout mode active have the row blanking and row readout occur in parallel in the sensor. This reduces the total frame readout time resulting in a faster maximum frame rate. As a consequence there are minor column artifacts (of very low DN) which are typically of no significance and irrelevant for many imaging syst ems. Note that these column artifacts will become more prominent as sensor gain is increased.

The image below shows a “dark” capture with Fast Readout Mode enabled and analog gain set to maximum (8x). The artifacts will become visible as fixed pattern DN column variations near the left edge of the video frame. There are darker columns followed by lighter columns as marked by the overlay graphics. These DN variations are not random columns, but consistent between individual OnSemi sensors operating in Fast Readout mode with high gain.
