2.4 Device Information
Device Information provides description of the camera and its sensor. The device specific
information shown below for configuration attributes is for a MEGAPLUS EC11000 Color
camera and single-head GigE Vision controller as of 07/07/09. The intent is to provide examples
of what the user would see. Actual information will vary based on the camera and controller that
is being used.
AppVersion: (Read) Retrievesthe firmware version of the application software. In this case, the
value is 504 which represents version 5.04#.
NOTE: The firmware version is expressed as an integer and should be divided by 100
to express the major and minor versions of the firmware.
DeviceID: (Read) 1100015
DeviceManufacturerInfo: (Read) Release-1.2 (00080602)
DeviceModelName: (Read) MEGAPLUS EC11000 Color
DeviceScanType: (R/W) This feature specifies the scan type of the sensor. Typically, this
feature is not writable. But some cameras might allow switching between linescan and
areascan. DeviceScanType can take any of the following values:
• Areascan: 2D sensor
• Linescan: 1D sensor
DeviceUserID: (R/W) User-programmable ID
DeviceVendorName: (Read) Princeton Instruments
DeviceVersion: (Read) Version 1.6 (02.00.03)
FpgaVersion: (Read) Retrieves the firmware version of the Fpga firmware.1268
NOTE: The version is expressed as an integer and should be divided by 100 to
express the major and minor versions of the firmware.
HeadSerialNumber: (Read) Camera serial number. 110358
SerialVersion: (Read) Retrieves the firmware version of the Serial port communications
software. 143
NOTE: The version is expressed as an integer and should be divided by 100 to
express the major and minor versions of the firmware.
2.5 Image Size Control
Image Size Control lists all features controlling the size of the transmitted image.
BinningHorizontal: (R/W) This feature represents the number of horizontal photo-sensitive
cells that must be combined (added) together. This has the net effect of increasing the
intensity (or signal to noise ratio) of the pixel and reducing the horizontal resolution (width) of
the image. A value of 1 indicates that no horizontal binning is performed by the camera.
BinningVertical: (R/W) This feature represents the number of vertical photo-sensitive cells that
must be combined (added) together. This has the net effect of increasing the intensity (or
signal to noise ratio) of the pixel and reducing the vertical resolution (height) of the image. A
value of 1 indicates that no vertical binning is performed by the camera.
