Therefore, you should only use the multiply by 4 setting when your pixelreadings with an 8 bit pixel format selected and with digital shift disabled are all less than 16.9.4.3 Precautions When Using Digital ShiftThere are several checks and precautions that you must follow before using the digital shift feature.The checks and precautions differ depending on whether the camera will be set for a 12 bit pixelformat or for an 8 bit pixel format in your application.If you will be using a 12 bit pixel format, make this check:Use the pylon Viewer or the pylon API to set the camera for a 12 bit pixel format and no digital shift.Check the output of the camera under your normal lighting conditions and note the readings for thebrightest pixels. If any of the readings are above 2048, do not use digital shift. If all of the readings are below 2048, you can safely use the shift by 1 setting. If all of the readings are below 1024, you can safely use the shift by 1 or 2 settings. If all of the readings are below 512, you can safely use the shift by 1, 2, or 3 settings. If all of the readings are below 256, you can safely use the shift by 1, 2, 3, or 4 settings.If you will be using an 8 bit format, make this check:Use the pylon Viewer or the pylon API to set the camera for a 8 bit pixel format and no digital shift.Check the output of the camera under your normal lighting conditions and note the readings for thebrightest pixels. If any of the readings are above 128, do not use digital shift. If all of the readings are below 128, you can safely use the shift by 1 setting. If all of the readings are below 64, you can safely use the shift by 1 or 2 settings. If all of the readings are below 32, you can safely use the shift by 1, 2, or 3 settings. If all of the readings are below 16, you can safely use the shift by 1, 2, 3, or 4 settings.9.4.4 Enabling and Setting Digital ShiftYou can enable or disable the digital shift feature by setting the value of the Digital Shift parameter.When the parameter is set to zero, digital shift will be disabled. When the parameter is set to 1, 2,3, or 4, digital shift will be set to shift by 1, shift by 2, shift by 3, or shift by 4 respectively.You can set the Digital Shift parameter values from within your application software by using theBasler pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set the parameter values:// Disable digital shiftCamera.DigitalShift.SetValue( 0 );
