operation by retrieving a test pattern and setting the camera’s trigger and exposure time.
Using Sapera CamExpert
CamExpert is the camera interfacing tool supported by the Sapera library. When used with a
Piranha4 camera, CamExpert allows a user to test all camera operating modes. Additionally
CamExpert saves the camera user settings configuration to the camera or saves multiple
configurations as individual camera parameter files on the host system (
*.ccf
). CamExpert
can also be used to upgrade the camera’s software.
An important component of CamExpert is its live acquisition display window which allows
immediate verification of timing or control parameters without the need to run a separate
acquisition program.
For context sensitive help, click on the
button then click on a camera configuration
parameter. A short description of the configuration parameter will be shown in a popup.
