3. Determine which port will be used for communication between the computer and the camera.
Usually, this will be the port that is built into the frame grabber. For the port on the frame
grabber, you will typically see the name of the frame grabber manufacturer included as part of
the port name. In the example shown below, a frame grabber from the "Acme" company is
used and "Acme" is included as part of the port name.
Select the port that you want to use as shown below.
4. Click the Probe Enabled Ports to probe the selected port(s).
This will probe the selected port(s) to see if a camera is connected to the port. This may take
up to approximately one minute for each port.
During the probing, the CL Configurator will test whether data can be reliably transmitted from
the camera at the maximum possible baud rate supported by the frame grabber.
In the following step, you will be probing ports to see if cameras are attached.
Basler suggests only probing the port(s) that you will be using to communicate
with a Camera Link camera running with Basler pylon software.
Probing a port that has a device other than a Camera Link camera running with
Basler pylon connected to it may change the configuration of the port and may
cause the device to stop operating correctly.
You can also probe an individual port by right clicking on a port ID in the list
and clicking on Probe this port from the menu that appears.
