6.4 Extension Unit Menu
The See3CAM_CU51 camera has some additional controls and features and these not quite
common controls and hence they are not included in the standard UVC controls, but listed as
UVC Extension controls. The Extension Unit Menu is used to select these extended UVC controls
of See3CAM_CU51. It can be used to switch between Master and Trigger mode of operation.
This can be done by clicking the appropriate button of the Extension Menu. The
Firmware
Version
button can be used to see the current firmware version.
To select the Master mode, click on the
MASTER MODE
button and click OK. Similarly to select
the Trigger mode, click on the
TRIGGER MODE
button and click OK. For more information on
operating conditions of Master and Trigger modes, please refer to the sections below.
The exposure to be used in still image capture can be set in the textbox. The torch mode GPIO
can be enabled by selecting the ON or OFF radio button.
Note1:
The preview will be stopped when See3CAM_CU51 goes into trigger mode and it will
resume when it comes back to Master mode.
