Acquisition and Transfer Control Feature Descriptions
The following table describes these parameters along with their view attribute and minimum
camera firmware version required. Additionally the Device Version column will indicate which
parameter is a member of the DALSA Features Naming Convention (denoted by DFNC), versus the
GenICam Standard Features Naming Convention (SFNC tag is not shown).
The Device Version number represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware
revision number. As Genie Nano capabilities evolve the device version tag will increase, therefore
identifying the supported function package. New features for a major device version release will be
indicated by
green text
for easy identification.

Acquisition Arm Cmd
AcquisitionArm
Arms the device before an AcquisitionStart command.
This optional command validates all the current
features for consistency and prepares the device for a
fast start of the acquisition. If not used explicitly, this
command is automatically executed at the first
AcquisitionStart but will not be repeated for
subsequent ones unless a data transfer related
feature is changed in the device.
