Configuring the Camera AW00097209000
8 Basler IP Fixed Box Cameras
Controls, Streaming, Motion Detection, Alarm Handling, etc. Except for the Streaming group, the
parameters in each group can be adjusted while the camera is in normal mode.
The parameters in the Streaming group can only be adjusted when the camera is in "configuration"
mode. When you open the Streaming parameters group in the web client, the camera will
automatically be placed in the configuration mode. Any changes you make to the parameters in the
Streaming group will not take effect until you close the group. The camera will apply any changes
and will automatically return to normal mode when you close the Streaming group.
Capture Frame Rate and Stream Frame Rate
An image that has been captured by the camera is commonly called a "frame", and the rate at which
the camera captures images is referred to as the "frame rate". Normally, the camera will attempt to
encode and stream frames at the same rate at which they are being captured by the imaging
sensor.
Note that there is an easy way to determine the current rate at which an encoder is encoding and
streaming images. If you simply add the $fps$ expression to the text overlay setup for the stream,
the text overlay on the streamed images will display the current rate at which the images are being
encoded and streamed. For example, if you added the $fps$ expression to the text overlay setup
for encoder stream 0, the images in stream 0 would display the current rate in the text overlay. See
Section 3.4.1 on page 20 for more information about setting text overlays.
The camera will continue to capture and stream images normally while it is in
configuration mode.
If you change the Live Buffer Size parameter setting or the Alarm Buffer Size
parameter setting for any stream, the setting changes will be applied when you
switch back to the normal mode and all streams will be stopped and restarted.
If you change the Encoder Type parameter setting, the Output Scaling parameter
setting, the AOI Width parameter setting, or the AOI Height parameter setting for
any one of the streams, the setting changes will be applied when you switch back
to normal mode and that stream will be stopped and restarted.
(Keep in mind that if you change the sensor AOI Width and AOI Height settings to
values that are smaller than the current stream AOI Width and AOI Height
settings, the camera will automatically make the stream AOI Width and AOI Height
settings smaller.)
