I/O Control Feature Descriptions
The following table describes these features 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 (indicated by DFNC), versus the GenICam
Standard Features Naming Convention (SFNC not shown).
The Device Version number represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware
revision number. As Genie TS 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.
