CogAcqProfileCamera PropertiesCognex VisionPro 9.7

The CogAcqProfileCamera type exposes the following members.

Properties

  NameDescription
Public propertyBinarizationThreshold
Reads or sets the Binarization Threshold pixel value when Binary laser detection mode is selected.
Public propertyBridgeDetectionZones
When true, the enabled detection zones are combined into a single zone starting at the bottom of the lowest zone and ending at the top of the highest zone. The ZDetectionSampling setting from Zone 1 is used for the entire combined zone.
Public propertyCameraMode
Reads or sets the operational mode of the camera. The camera mode setting will affect the type of image acquired. Intensity and IntensityWithGraphics images are intended for diagnostic purposes only. Range is for calibrated height profile images. Default mode is IntensityWithGraphics.
Public propertyDetectionSensitivity
Reads or sets the sensitivity of the laser detection. A higher value makes the laser easier to find and allows a lower exposure setting, which in turn allows a higher line rate. A lower value will prevent mistaking noise for the laser in areas where the laser is obscured.
Public propertyDetectionSensitivityMax
Defines the maximum threshold used for detecting the laser. Maximum value will vary with camera model and firmware version.
Public propertyHighDynamicRange
Read or sets high dynamic range operation. When enabled, the camera uses multiple exposures to increase the dynamic range. This is useful when the laser line passes over both dark and highly reflective regions. Enabling high dynamic range will reduce the maximum line rate. Default value is False.
Public propertyLaserDetectionMode
Determines the tradeoff between maximum speed and accuracy of the laser detection algorithm.
Public propertyLaserMode
Reads or sets the mode of the laser. Default is Strobed. Laser is on when an image is acquired. "On" and "Off" are intended for setup and diagnostic purposes only.
Public propertyLinkDetectionZones
When true, the base of Zone 2 is linked to the top of Zone 1, such that changes to Zone 1 will automatically make a corresponding adjustment to Zone 2. This is useful when adjusting the distance between the camera and the object being imaged, as both zones can adjusted by changing only the Zone 1 base. Note that as the LinkDetectionZones setting is turned on and off, the value of zDetectionBase2 will automatically toggle between an absolute and relative value.
Public propertyMinimumBinarizationLineWidth
Reads or sets the Minimum Binarization Linewidth when Binary laser detection mode is selected.
Public propertyPeakDetectionMode
Reads or sets the selection for laser peak detection.
Public propertyTriggerSignal
Get or set the trigger signal. May be either Opto or Differential.
Public propertyTriggerType
Selects the triggering behavior of the camera.
Public propertyZDetectionBase
Reads or sets the area of the sensor used for laser detection. ZDetectionBase is the distance, in mm, relative to the camera defined origin of the Z axis, where the first detection range begins. When converting ZDetectionBase to discrete sensor rows, the range may be expanded slightly to match the sensor capabilities. The range will only be reduced if it extends off the end of the sensor. This function can be used to ignore reflections and other artifacts that are outside the expected range of heights.
Public propertyZDetectionBase2
Reads or sets the area of the sensor used for laser detection. ZDetectionBase2 is the distance, in mm, where the detection range begins. The value is relative to either the top of the first detection zone if LinkDetectionZones is true and the first zone is enabled, or the camera defined origin of the Z axis otherwise. When converting ZDetectionBase2 to discrete sensor rows, the range may be expanded slightly to match the sensor capabilities. The range will only be reduced if it extends off the end of the sensor. This function can be used to ignore reflections and other artifacts that are outside the expected range of heights.
Public propertyZDetectionEnable
Enables or disables the first detection zone.
Public propertyZDetectionEnable2
Enables or disables the second detection zone.
Public propertyZDetectionHeight
Reads or sets the area of the sensor used for laser detection. ZDetectionHeight is the height, in mm, of the first detection range stating at ZDetectionBase. A smaller ZDetectionHeight increases the maximum line rate when acquiring range images, but reduces the measurement range. When converting ZDetectionHeight to discrete sensor rows, the range may be expanded slightly to match the sensor capabilities. The range will only be reduced if it extends off the end of the sensor. This function can be used to ignore reflections and other artifacts that are outside the expected range of heights.
Public propertyZDetectionHeight2
Reads or sets the area of the sensor used for laser detection. ZDetectionHeight2 is the height, in mm, of the second detection range starting at ZDetectionBase2. A smaller ZDetectionHeight2 increases the maximum line rate when acquiring range images, but reduces the measurement range. When converting ZDetectionHeight2 to discrete sensor rows, the range may be expanded slightly to match the sensor capabilities. The range will only be reduced if it extends off the end of the sensor. This function can be used to ignore reflections and other artifacts that are outside the expected range of heights.
Public propertyZDetectionHeightMax
Defines the maximum range of heights (in mm) that can be specified via the ZDetection settings.
Public propertyZDetectionSampling
Reads or sets the number of rows used for laser finding to be reduced. 1 processes every row, 2 processes every other row. Increasing ZDetectionSampling increases the maximum line rate when acquiring range images, but reduces the measurement precision. The increase in maximum line rate is in addition to the increase associated with adjusting ZDetectionBase and ZDetectionHeight. Default value is 1.
Public propertyZDetectionSampling2
Reads or sets the number of rows used for laser finding to be reduced in detection zone 2. 1 processes every row, 2 processes every other row. Increasing ZDetectionSampling increases the maximum line rate when acquiring range images, but reduces the measurement precision. The increase in maximum line rate is in addition to the increase associated with adjusting ZDetectionBase and ZDetectionHeight. Default value is 1.
Public propertyZDetectionSamplingMax
Defines the maximum number of rows can be reduced.
