UI-149x / UI-549x Application Notes

Hinweis

For the technical specifications of this model go to: Camera and Sensor Data > UI-149x / UI-549x.

Sensor

Use of the sensor's internal image scaler does not increase the maximum possible frame rate.
It is recommended to always enable hot pixel correction.
At very long exposure times and minimum gain, the white level may not be reached. The gain should be increased by one step in this case.
Color version only: Live color display with color correction and 5x5 de-Bayering results in high CPU load (see Color Filter (Bayer Filter)).
Color version with GigE uEye HE: Hardware color conversion with the RGB32 target format is not supported. You can use the RGB24/16/15,  YUV,  and Y8/12/16 formats instead.
Monochrome version: The sensor has a reduced sensitivity in the NIR range. It is suitable for IR imaging only to a limited extent.
Monochrome version: The sensor internally works like the color version. This might lead to artifacts when binning and subsampling are used. Therefore, the monochrome sensor does not support binning factors higher than 2x.

Lens

It is recommended to use a high-resolution (megapixel) lens.
The sensor is sensitive to diffuse light. Light striking the pixels from the side must be avoided. We recommend using lenses with a greater distance to the sensor surface and avoiding small apertures (f/16 and higher). Otherwise artifacts can occur, especially on the monochrome version. The sensor's homogeneity should not be assessed without a lens.
