# Color Transformation Control

## Color Transformation Selector

| Name | ColorTransformationSelector | **Standard** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Description | Selects which Color Transformation module is controlled by the various color transformation features. |
| Interface | Enumeration |
| Access mode | Read/Write |
| Adjustable while grabbing | Yes |
| Value range | See enum entries table below. |
| Default value | **ColortoColor** |
| Availability | ALL (Not available for mono Cameras) |
| Notes | The transformations are defined as follows: **Color to Color** In case of RGB pixel format the fourth entry has no meaning. A could contain color component for some camera variants. **Color to Grey** *Attention: For current implementation color to grey is supported only for RGB. So the formula reduces to Gain0-2 and RGB!* Use Color Transformation Value Selector and Color Transformation Value to set the coefficients. |
| Error behavior | See the device error code documentation. |

Color Transformation Selector Enum Entries:

| Name | Description |
| --- | --- |
| ColortoColor | Color to color |
| ColortoGrey | Color to grey |

## Color Transformation Enable

| Name | ColorTransformationEnable[ColorTransformationSelector] | **Standard** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Description | Activates the selected Color Transformation module. |
| Interface | Boolean |
| Access mode | Read/Write |
| Adjustable while grabbing | No |
| Value range | **True** – Enables the selected color transformation module **False** – Disables the selected color transformation module |
| Default value | False |
| Availability | ALL (Not available for mono cameras) |
| Notes | If the **ColortoGrey** module is disabled, the pixel format internally is changed to RGB8. |
| Error behavior | See the device error code documentation. |

## Color Transformation Value Selector

| Name | ColorTransformationValueSelector | **Standard** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Description | Selects the Gain factor or Offset of the transformation matrix to access in the selected color transformation module. |
| Interface | Enumeration |
| Access mode | Read/Write |
| Adjustable while grabbing | Yes |
| Value range | See enum entries table below. |
| Default value | **Gain00** – For **ColortoColor** module **Gain0** – For **ColortoGrey** module |
| Availability | ALL (Not available for mono Cameras) |
| Notes | - |
| Error behavior | See the device error code documentation. |

| Gain3 | Gain 1, 2 of the transformation matrix. |

## Color Transformation Value

| Name | ColorTransformationValue[ColorTransformationValueSelector] | **Standard** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Description | Represents the value of the selected Gain factor or Offset inside the transformation matrix. |
| Interface | Float |
| Access mode | Read/Write |
| Adjustable while grabbing | No |
| Value range | [-2.0 , 2.0] – For Gain selector [-0.5, 0.5] – For Offset selector |
