The remaining visible Format_7 Mode_1 ... Mode_7 can be mapped to any
internal Format_7 mode.
Example
To map the internal Format_7 Mode_19 to the visible Format_7 Mode_1,
write the decimal number 19 to the above listed F7MODE_1 register.
Low-noise binning mode (2 x and 4 x binning)

(only Guppy PRO F-503)
This register enables/disables low-noise binning mode.
This means: an average (and not a sum) of the luminance values is calculated
within the FPGA.
The image is therefore darker than with the usual binning mode, but the sig-
nal to noise ratio is better (approximately a factor of
).
Note

For available Format_7 modes see Figure 63: Mapping of pos-
sible Format_7 modes to F7M1...F7M7 (F-503 only) For
default mappings per factory see page 180 on page 132
.
Setting the F7MODE_x register to:
• -1 forces the camera to use the factory defined mode
• -2 disables the respective Format_7 mode (no mapping
is applied)
After setup of personal Format_7 mode mappings you have to
reset the camera. The mapping is performed during the cam-
era startup only.
