The CamExpert application uses panes to simplify choosing and configuring camera files or
acquisition parameters for the installed device.
Device Selector pane:
View and select from any installed Sapera acquisition device.
Once a device is selected CamExpert will only present acquisition parameters applicable
to that device. Optionally select a camera file included with the Sapera installation or
saved by the user.
Parameters pane:
Allows viewing or changing all acquisition parameters supported by
the acquisition device. CamExpert displays parameters only if those parameters are
supported by the installed device. This avoids confusion by eliminating parameter
choices when they do not apply to the hardware in use.
Display pane:
Provides a live or single frame acquisition display. Frame buffer
parameters are shown in an information bar above the image window.
Control Buttons:
The Display pane includes CamExpert control buttons. These are:
Acquisition control button:
Click once to start live grab, click again to stop.
Single frame grab:
Click to acquire one frame from device.
Software trigger button:
With the I/O control parameters set to Trigger Enabled / Software
Trigger type, click to send a single software trigger command.
