Sets the target value for brightness auto features like ExposureAuto and GainAuto. The percentage of pixels, that must be brighter than BrightnessAutoTarget, is defined in BrightnessAutoPercentile.
|
Increasing BrightnessAutoTarget results in brighter images, decreasing its value results in darker images. If BrightnessAutoTarget is set to a high value and BrightnessAutoPercentile is set to its minimum, it behaves similar to a peak white algorithm. |
|
It is not recommended to push BrightnessAutoTarget to its limits. Keep distance from the limits, i.e. use "250" instead of "255", or "5" instead of "0". |

Values description
The value of BrightnessAutoTarget relates to the current PixelFormat. Changing the PixelFormat will automatically adapt the value of BrightnessAutoTarget.
Example:
•PixelFormat: "Mono8"
→ BrightnessAutoTarget: "150"
•PixelFormat: "Mono10"
→ BrightnessAutoTarget: "600"
•PixelFormat: "Mono12"
→ BrightnessAutoTarget: "2400"

uEye cameras: This feature is only supported by UI-1007XS Rev. 1.1 and UI-1007XS. |
Code example
C++
// Determine the current BrightnessAutoTarget
int64_t value = nodeMapRemoteDevice->FindNode<peak::core::nodes::IntegerNode>("BrightnessAutoTarget")->Value();
// Set BrightnessAutoTarget to 150
nodeMapRemoteDevice->FindNode<peak::core::nodes::IntegerNode>("BrightnessAutoTarget")->SetValue(150);
C#
// Determine the current BrightnessAutoTarget
long value = nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode<peak.core.nodes.IntegerNode>("BrightnessAutoTarget").Value();
// Set BrightnessAutoTarget to 150
nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode<peak.core.nodes.IntegerNode>("BrightnessAutoTarget").SetValue(150);
Python
# Determine the current BrightnessAutoTarget (int)
value = nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode("BrightnessAutoTarget").Value()
# Set BrightnessAutoTarget to 150 (int)
nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode("BrightnessAutoTarget").SetValue(150)
