Event Types
List of standard and custom GenTL event types
GenTL identifies the events according to their Type and their relevant object Module.
Standard Event Types
The Coaxlink Driver implements the following standard event type for registration by the GenTL Consumer application:
GenTL Standard Event Type | GenTL Module | Description |
---|---|---|
EVENT_NEW_BUFFER | Data Stream | Notification on newly filled buffers. |
Custom Event Types
Beside the standard event types, the GenTL specification provides room for custom event types. Custom event types are specific to the GenTL Producer implementation (Coaxlink Driver in this case).
The Coaxlink Driver implements the following custom event types for registration by the GenTL Consumer application:
Event Type | Module | Description |
---|---|---|
EVENT_CUSTOM_IO_TOOLBOX | Interface (Device) | Notification of I/O Toolbox events |
EVENT_CUSTOM_CXP_INTERFACE | Interface (Device) | Notification of CoaXPress Host Interface events |
EVENT_CUSTOM_CIC | Device | Notification of Camera and Illumination Control events |
EVENT_CUSTOM_DATASTREAM | Data Stream | Notification of CoaXPress data stream events |
Note: The EVENT_CUSTOM_IO_TOOLBOX and the EVENT_CUSTOM_CXP_INTERFACE event types can also be registered on a Device Module.
Note: The custom event types are generic; each one gathers multiple event sources.
