Linea SWIR GigE Series Camera
Acquisition and Transfer Control Feature Descriptions
The following table describes the parameters along with the view attribute and minimum camera
firmware version required. The Device Version column indicates which parameter is a member of
DALSA’s Features Naming Convention (denoted by DFNC), versus the GenICam Standard Features
Naming Convention (SFNC not shown).
The Device Version number represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware
revision number. As the Linea SWIR GigE camera’s capabilities evolve, the device version tag will
increase, identifying the supported function package. New features for a major device version
release will be indicated by
green text
for easy identification.
