Acquisition and Transfer Control Category
This category contains invisible registers that support feature streaming. Feature streaming
is the process where feature values are read from or written to the camera in a batch.
Validation of the data is postponed until the streaming is ended. See figure below.
Figure 11 Streaming Feature Data to the Camera
Feature Validation is turned off in this mode so that the order in which the feature values
are set is irrelevant. For example, if validation was on during this process
Acquis
i
tionFrameRate
would have to be set before ExposureTime because the maximum ExposureTime can be
limited by the camera’s frame rate.
CamExpert uses feature streaming when saving or loading the camera’s ccf file. This file can
be used to clone cameras so that they have the same settings. Most GUIs and SDKs will
hide this functionality.
