Parameter Values

Enumeration: WEB, PAGE, LONGPAGE, HFR, SNAPSHOT, VIDEO

Table 1. WEB
MC_AcquisitionMode_WEB

Applicable product(s): 1191 Grablink Value, 1198 Grablink Avenue, 1621 Grablink Express, 1624 Grablink Base, 1623 Grablink DualBase, 1622 Grablink Full, 1626 Grablink Full XR.

Description

This mode is intended for image acquisition of a continuous object, like a web, from a line-scan camera.

A single sequence acquiring SeqLength_Ln contiguous lines is available within the channel activity period. The sequence is divided in contiguous phases, each phase acquiring PageLength_Ln lines.

In the case SeqLength_Ln is not a multiple of PageLength_Ln , the surface is partially filled during the last phase.

The sequence and the first acquisition phase are initiated according to TrigMode . Subsequent acquisition phases are automatically initiated without any line loss.

BreakEffect specifies the behavior in case of a user break.

Default value.

Table 2. PAGE
MC_AcquisitionMode_PAGE

Applicable product(s): 1191 Grablink Value, 1198 Grablink Avenue, 1621 Grablink Express, 1624 Grablink Base, 1623 Grablink DualBase, 1622 Grablink Full, 1626 Grablink Full XR.

Description

This mode is intended for image acquisition of discrete objects from a line-scan camera.

Each page is constituted of contiguous lines; the page length, expressed in lines, is specified by PageLength_Ln .

A single sequence is capable to acquire SeqLength_Pg pages within the channel activity period.

Table 3. LONGPAGE
MC_AcquisitionMode_LONGPAGE

Applicable product(s): 1198 Grablink Avenue, 1621 Grablink Express, 1624 Grablink Base, 1623 Grablink DualBase, 1622 Grablink Full, 1626 Grablink Full XR.

Description

This mode is intended for image acquisition of long or variable size discrete objects from a line-scan camera.

The parameter ActivityLength specifies the number of sequences within the channel activity period. Each sequence is capable to acquire SeqLength_Ln contiguous lines.

A sequence is divided in phases, each phase acquiring PageLength_Ln lines.

Table 4. HFR
MC_AcquisitionMode_HFR

Applicable product(s): 1198 Grablink Avenue, 1621 Grablink Express, 1624 Grablink Base, 1623 Grablink DualBase, 1622 Grablink Full, 1626 Grablink Full XR.

Description

This mode is intended for acquisition of snapshot images from high frame rate area-scan cameras.

A single sequence is capable to acquire SeqLength_Fr frames within the channel activity period. The sequence is divided into phases, each phase acquiring PhaseLength_Fr frames into a single destination surface.

Table 5. SNAPSHOT
MC_AcquisitionMode_SNAPSHOT

Applicable product(s): 1161 Domino Alpha 2, 1167 Domino Melody, 1168 Domino Harmony, 1601 Domino Symphony PCIe, 1191 Grablink Value, 1198 Grablink Avenue, 1621 Grablink Express, 1624 Grablink Base, 1623 Grablink DualBase, 1622 Grablink Full, 1626 Grablink Full XR.

Description

This mode is intended for acquisition of snapshot images from area-scan cameras.

The unique sequence is capable to acquire SeqLength_Fr frames within the channel activity period.
