A 10

A Brief Overview to DLL Communication (IPC)

The description of the initialization procedure as well as the necessary command list is provided on the

CD and in the TIM Connect software under

Help > SDK

2 SDK packages are available. These can be found on the included software CD:

- Connect SDK: requires the TIM Connect software

- Direct SDK: no TIM Connect software required, supports Linux and Windows

The communication to the process imager device is handled by the TIM Connect software (

Imager.exe

)

only. A dynamic link library (

ImagerIPC2.dll

) provides the interprocess communication (IPC) for other at-

tached processes. The DLL can be dynamically linked into the secondary application. Or it can be done static

by a lib file too. Both

Imager.exe

and

ImagerIPC2.dll

are designed for Windows Vista/ 7/ 8/ 10 only.

The application must support call-back functions and polling mode.
The ImagerIPC2.dll will export a bunch of functions that are responsible for initiating the communication,

retrieving data and setting some control parameters.
The main difference to the former Version 1 (

ImagerIPC.dll)

is the support of more than one TIM cameras

via multiple instances of TIM Connect.
