Goldeye G/CL Technical Manual V4.2.0
Using a custom application
It is possible to access the Goldeye Camera Link camera without using the Vimba
configuration transport layer. In this case the custom application must open the
COM port of the grabber via the clallserial.dll (or clserXXX.dll) to establish a
communication channel between the host and the camera. The protocol used for
communication with the camera is GenICam GenCP.
