Standby

uEye cameras can be set to a power-saving standby mode. Standby mode switches off the sensor of CMOS cameras and the timing board of CCD cameras. The camera remains open in the software.

In standby mode, the camera cools down and the number of hot pixels visible when longer exposure times are used is reduced.

When you open the camera or switch to a different mode (freerun or trigger mode), the camera wakes up from standby mode.

In standby mode, you can continue to use the camera's digital inputs or outputs.
