Private Sub Form_Load()
HScroll1.Value = ActiveGige1.BlackLevelAbs
HScroll1.Min = ActiveGige1.GetFeatureMin ("BlackLevelAbs")
HScroll1.Max = ActiveGige1.GetFeatureMax ("BlackLevelAbs")
ActiveGige1.Acquire=True
End Sub

Private Sub HScroll1_Scroll()
ActiveGige1.BlackLevelAbs = HScroll1.Value
End Sub

Remarks

This property changes the black level of the video by adding a constant amount of luminance to each pixel. The valid property range can be retrieved by the GetFeatureMin and GetFeatureMax methods.

Note that the property is available only if the currently selected camera supports the BlackLevelRaw feature per GenICam standard.
