Using CamExpert
The Sapera CamExpert tool is the interfacing tool for GenCP compliant Camera Link cameras, and is
supported by the Sapera library and hardware. When used with a CLHS camera, CamExpert allows
a user to test most of the operating modes. Additionally, CamExpert is able to save and reload the
FG configuration to simplify repeated power-up system configuration. Similarly, the camera is able
to store the selected camera configuration in a user set which can be recalled each time the camera
is repowered.
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.
Click on any parameter and a short description is displayed below the Category pane. The same
context sensitive help is available by clicking on the
button then click on a camera
configuration parameter. Click on the
button to open the help file for more descriptive
information on CamExpert.
