AM-800CL / AB-800CL- 21 -5.4.3 Binning (Command : BNC) (Only for AM-800CL)This function is available only for AM-800CL. In binning mode, adjacent pixels in thehorizontal direction and/or vertical direction are combined and output as one pixel. Thepossible combinations are shown below.Fig. 16 Binning modesBinning achieves a higher frame rate, as well as better sensitivity.On the other hand, the resolution becomes less than the full frame readout.H x V (Pixels) Sensitivity Spatial resolutionH direction V direction1 x 2 2 times Unchanged 1/22 x 1 2 times 1/2 Unchanged2 x 2 4 times 1/2 1/25.4.4 Bayer output patternThe AB-800CL starts with GRG on odd lines and BGB on even lines as shown below. If AOI isused, Offset Y can be set every 2 lines and therefore, it always starts with a GRG sequence.signal outGrBGrH7GrBGrR Gr RGb B GbRH3 H4 H5 H6Gr RV1V2V3H1 H2Gr RGr RB GbFig. 17 Bayer sequenceHorizontalVertical1 pixel1 Pixel2 Pixels2 pixels
