Description

Camera control method.

The NC camera control method is to be used with free-run or asynchronous reset cameras not controlled by the frame grabber.

The RCcamera control method is to be used with asynchronous reset cameras having the camera cycle start controlled by the grabber CIC and the exposure time controlled by the camera.

The RG camera control method is to be used with asynchronous reset cameras having the camera cycle start and the exposure duration controlled by the grabber CIC.

The EXTERNAL camera control method is to be used with asynchronous reset cameras having the camera cycle start and the exposure duration controlled by a hardware signal applied by an external controller to any GPIO input port of the grabber.

The NC and the EXTERNAL camera control methods doesn't use the CIC.

Enumeration Values

  • NC: Not Controlled.
  • RC: Grabber-controlled cycle start, Camera-controlled exposure time.
  • RG: Grabber-controlled cycle start and exposure time.
  • EXTERNAL: Externally-controlled cycle start and exposure time.
