This, however, may cause objects to appeardistorted in the image. For more information about possible image distortion due to combinedvertical and horizontal binning, see Section 7.8.4 on page 251.7.8.3 Setting BinningYou can enable vertical binning by setting the Binning Vertical parameter. Setting the parameter’svalue to 2, 3, or 4 enables vertical binning by 2, by 3, or by 4, respectively. Setting the parameter’svalue to 1 disables vertical binning.You can enable horizontal binning by setting the Binning Horizontal parameter. Setting theparameter’s value to 2, 3, or 4 enables horizontal binning by 2, by 3, or by 4, respectively. Settingthe parameter’s value to 1 disables horizontal binning.You can set the Binning Vertical or the Binning Horizontal parameter value from within yourapplication software by using the Basler pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using theAPI to set the parameter values:// Enable vertical binning by 2camera.BinningVertical.SetValue( 2 );// Enable horizontal binning by 4camera.BinningHorizontal.SetValue( 4 );// Disable vertical and horizontal binningcamera.BinningVertical.SetValue( 1 );camera.BinningHorizontal.SetValue( 1 );If your camera provides binning modes also set the binning mode to summing or averaging forhorizontal and vertical binning:Fig. 96: Combining Vertical and Horizontal Color BinningExample: Horizontal and Vertical Color Binning by 2
