How to use GigE Vision Action Commands
The Action Control Function is a function that executes the pre-configured action when the camera
receives action commands. Action commands can send both unicast and broadcast messages and
give instructions for actions to multiple cameras simultaneously by broadcasting them. A camera that
has this function can even give instructions for actions to different types of multiple cameras. Although
this function includes jitter and delays, it is useful for controlling multiple cameras simultaneously.
Actions are performed when the following three conditions are met.
1. ActionDeviceKey set to the camera and ActionDeviceKey in the action command match.
2. ActionGroupKey set to the camera and ActionGroupKey in the action command match.
3. ActionGroupMask set to the camera and GroupMask in the action command perform AND
operation, and the result is not 0.
How to Configure
1. Specify ActionDeviceKey.
2. Then, specify two actions that can be configured on the camera.
a. Action1
1. Select 1 in ActionSelector.
2. Specify ActionGroupMask [ActionSelector].
3. Specify ActionGroupKey [ActionSelector].
b. Action2
1. Select 2 in ActionSelector.
2. Specify ActionGroupMask [ActionSelector].
3. Specify ActionGroupKey [ActionSelector].
3. Set triggers (AcquisitionStart, AcquisitionEnd, FrameStart, AcquisitionTransferStart) to Action1
and Action2.
