Transfer Mode
TransferOperationMode
Sets the operation mode of the transfer.
Expert
Continuous
Continuous
Blocks are transferred continuously until stopped with the
TransferStop command.
Multi Block
MultiBlock
The transfer terminates after the transition on
TransferBlockCount or before on a user request.
Transfer Block Count
TransferBlockCount
Specifies the number of Data Blocks the device must
stream during the next transfer.
Expert
Transfer Queue Mode
TransferQueueMode
Specifies the operation mode of the transfer queue.
Beginner
First In First Out
FirstInFirstOut
First blocks (images) in are transferred out first. Frame
can accumulating in the queue until it is full at which point
the newest new frames will be discarded.
Circular When Stopped FirstInFirstOut_CircularWhenStopped
While the transfer module is streaming blocks (images),
the first blocks in are transferred out first. Frames in the
queue are not removed until they are transferred out or
the transfer function is aborted. When the transfer module
is stopped and the queue fills by continuing acquisitions,
the oldest frames in the queue are then overwritten by
new frames.
Transfer Queue Current
Block Count
transferQueueCurrentBlockCount
Returns the current number of blocks in the transfer
queue.
Expert
Transfer Queue
Memory Size
transferQueueMemorySize
Indicates the amount of device memory (in Mbytes)
available for internal image frame accumulation in the
transfer queue. Increasing or decreasing memory reserved
by devicePacketResendBufferSize will affect total memory
available here.
Expert
Transferred Image Max
Data Size (in MB)
transferMaxBlockSize
Biggest image (GEV blocks) data size sent on the GigE
cable. The value is displayed in Megabytes. Use this value
to calculate the frame rate transferred on the GigE cable.
5GigE Link speed (~115 MB) divided by Biggest Image
(value) = Max fps transferred.
(Note: This statistic is reset when acquisitions are
stopped.)
DFNC
Beginner
Transferred Image Min
Data Size (in MB)
transferMinBlockSize
Smallest image (GEV blocks) data size sent on the GigE
cable. The value is displayed in Megabytes.
(Note: This statistic is reset when acquisitions are
stopped.)
DFNC
Beginner
Transferred Image
Average Data Size
(in MB)
transferAverageBlockSize
Average size of the last 16 images (GEV blocks) of data
sent on the GigE cable. The value is displayed in
Megabytes. Use this value to calculate the sustained frame
rate transferred on the GigE cable.
GigE Link speed (~115 MB) divided by Average size
(value) = Max fps transferred. When TurboDrive is
enabled, this feature allows monitoring the average
throughput.

Beginner
Transfer Start
TransferStart
Starts the streaming of data Block(s) to another device.
Expert
Transfer Stop
TransferStop
Stops the streaming of data Block(s) to another device.
Expert
Transfer Abort
TransferAbort
Aborts the streaming of data Block(s)to another device.
Expert
Acquisition Buffering
Acquisitions are internally buffered then transferred to the host system. This internal buffer allows
uninterrupted acquisitions without transfer delays. When the internal buffer is full an Image Lost
Event will be generated.
The camera has 1 block of 256 MB. A portion of the memory could be reserved for packet resends
but at the loss of accumulating frames.
