Settings

• Number of images to average - This value dictates the size of the image queue. Initially, the values are limited to 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32. If this value is changed, the queue is empty before proceeding with the new queue size. Default is 16.

• Reset Image Accumulator - Clears the image queue and starts accumulating again from scratch. This is useful when environmental lighting changes significantly.

• Performance Level - Is either of the following:

• Maximum Speed - Snapshot images are kept in the buffer pool. This mode is faster for snapshots since the image data is not copied at runtime. However, Number of images to average is limited by the size of the Buffer Counts specified in the property page of the system step. The step will automatically use 'Minimum Size' mode when used for non-snapshot images or during tryout. (Default)

• Minimum Size - In this mode, a copy of the image data is made to perform the averaging operation. This does not require frames to be consumed from the buffer pool, but will slow runtime.
