Camera control: General
settings:
Resolution: 1280
x 1024 pixels or 1810 x 1442 pixel
interpolated,
software sub-pixel interpolation, doubling
of
pixels to 2,62 M pixels
Illumination: Default
or user specified settings
Focus Finder: Detector
to find the right focus level
Show under-/over-exposure: Starts the exposure
analysis of the current image
Adjustment of color: Manual control of color and
saturation, grayscale
Fast B/W Preview: For maximum frame rate
Auto exposure: Starts
from the minimum exposure time and is limited
to
exposure time of 1/9 sec
Sharpen image on acquire: A sharpen algorithm
is used to calculate the final
image,
soft margins, or sharp margins with enhanced
sharpness
Histogram: Shows
the intensity level of the pixels of
the
whole image
Gamma: Matching
to monitor
Exposure: Controls
the exposure time
Brightness: Under
automatic conditions the brightness can be
changed,
the exposure time is controlled by the
automatic
exposure function
Gain: Adjustable
gain (0 to 99)
User settings: Illumination,
white balance, restore settings, delete
settings,
new settings, save settings, save changes
automatically,
close dialog after acquiring, focus
settings
Software image accumulation: Image integration up to
13,8 secs for faint objects
such
as in fluorescence or polarization
Light adjustment of shutter: Manual or automatic
White balance: Manual
white balance
Manual
setting of colors
Printing: Immediate
printout
Operation: Keys
and mouse,
Supply unit: None required,
because the DC 200 is powered
through
the PC
