Parameter Levels

With MultiCam, any hardware or software feature that could profitably benefit of some user controllability is associated to a parameter.

Some of these features are related to the fundamental behavior of the system. There are controlled by high-level parameters. As a general rule, the user acts on these high-level parameters in order to implement the expected behavior.

Other features are controlled by low-level parameters. These parameters will be exercised by the experienced user to fine-tune some functional aspects of the application.

Any parameter possesses one of the following three levels.

Parameter level

Definition

Select

The parameter addresses a fundamental feature of the hardware or software behavior.

Adjust

The parameter addresses an operative mode for the fundamental feature specified by the select-level parameters.

Expert

The parameter can be used by experienced users to modify the operative mode of the fundamental feature ruled by the higher level parameters.

An application is able to change the value of any parameter regardless to its level.
