Description of the LOGLUX

LuxWare configuration tool
The philosophy
The LOGLUX

LuxWare configuration tool automatically finds the interfaces of the PC/IPC system and
the cameras connected to the system. The user selects the camera to be configured.
Owing to the logical tree structure principle applied, the complex functions of the IBIS5 CMOS image
sensor used in the CMOS industrial camera LOGLUX

i5 CL are easy to understand and handle. A
plausibility check of the settings is made so that faulty operations are largely excluded. In many cases
only a mouse is required for setting the parameters.
Professional users have full access to all relevant sensor functions at register level by using a terminal
program which is an integral part of the LOGLUX

LuxWare. Moreover, this form of configuration is
fully scriptable, i.e. all settings can be logged and stored as an ASCII file and transferred from one
platform, e.g. Microsoft

Windows, to another, e.g. UNIX/Linux. It is primarily the programmers who
will benefit from this function.
All camera settings can be stored in so-called user profiles which are re-loaded when needed. These
user profiles remain stored in the camera itself even after disconnection from the power supply.
It is a special feature of the CMOS industrial camera LOGLUX

i5 CL that the user can manipulate the
image data in the camera using up to three selectable look-up tables. The LUT load and storage
functions required for the purpose are provided by the software.
