Linea CLHS Series Camera 

Camera Operation 

CamExpert for Linea CLHS Cameras  

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 camera, CamExpert allows a 

user to test most of the operating modes. Additionally CamExpert saves the camera’s user settings 

configuration to the camera or saves multiple configurations as individual camera parameter files 

on the host system (*.ccf).  
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. 
 

 

Note

: The examples shown may not entirely reflect the features and parameters available from 

the camera model and camera mode used in your application.  

CamExpert Panes 

The various areas of the CamExpert tool are described in the figure below. Device categories and 

parameter features are displayed as per the device’s XML description file. The number of 

parameters shown is dependent on the View mode selected (Beginner, Expert, Guru – see 

description below).
