Gain Auto#

相机的 Gain Auto 功能会在指定的限值内自动调整增益，直到达到目标亮度值为止。

自动功能的像素数据可以来自一个或多个自动功能 ROI。

如果要同时使用 Gain Auto 和 Exposure Auto，使用 Auto Function Profile 功能可以指定如何平衡两者效果。

要手动调整增益，请使用 Gain 功能。

该功能的使用#

启用或禁用 Gain Auto#

要启用或禁用 Gain Auto 自动功能：

将至少一个自动功能 ROI 分配给 Gain Auto 自动功能。
确保自动功能 ROI 部分或完全与图像 ROI 重叠。
设置 GainAuto 参数设置为以下工作模式之一：
- Once: The camera adjusts the gain until the specified target brightness value has been reached. When this has been achieved, or after a maximum of 30 calculation cycles, the camera sets the auto function to [Off` and applies the gain resulting from the last calculation to all following images.
- Continuous: The camera adjusts the gain continuously while images are being acquired.
- Off: Disables the Gain Auto auto function. The gain remains at the value resulting from the last automatic or manual adjustment.

信息

当相机连续拍摄图像时，自动功能会在经过较短的延迟后生效。前几张图像可能不受自动功能的影响。

指定下限和上限#

The auto function adjusts the Gain parameter value within limits specified by you.

To change the limits, set the AutoGainLowerLimit and the AutoGainUpperLimit parameters to the desired values.

Example: Assume you have set the AutoGainLowerLimit parameter to 2 and the AutoGainUpperLimit parameter to 6. During the automatic adjustment process, the gain will never be lower than 2 and never higher than 6.

指定目标亮度值#

自动功能会调整增益，直至达到目标亮度值（即平均灰度值）为止。

To specify the target value, use the AutoTargetBrightness parameter.

信息

目标值计算不包括其他图像优化，例如 Gamma。根据设置的图像优化，相机输出的图像平均灰度值可能会明显低于或高于目标值。
The camera also uses the AutoTargetBrightness parameter to control the Exposure Auto auto function. If you want to use Gain Auto and Exposure Auto at the same time, use the Auto Function Profile feature to specify how the effects of both are balanced.
在部分相机机型上，您可以使用 Remove Parameter Limits 功能提高目标值参数的上限。

在 Basler ace GigE 相机型号上，您还可以指定一个 Gray Value Adjustment Damping 系数。在 Basler dart 和 pulse 相机型号上，您可以指定 Brightness Adjustment Damping 系数。

如果使用阻尼系数，则达到目标值的速度会更慢。
