10.18.1 Imaging Sensor Temperature
The camera is equipped with a temperature sensor mounted on the imaging sensor board. The
temperature sensor lets you read the current temperature of the camera’s imaging sensor board in
degrees C.
Reading the Imaging Sensor Temperature
You can use the pylon API to read the imaging sensor board temperature in degrees C from within
your application software. Reading the temperature using Basler pylon is a two step process:
 Select the imaging sensor board temperature sensor.
 Read the temperature.
The following code snippet illustrates using the API to read the temperature in degrees C:
// Select the imaging sensor board temperature sensor
Camera.TemperatureSelector.SetValue ( TemperatureSelector_Sensorboard );
// Read the imaging sensor board temperature
double imgSensorTemp = Camera.TemperatureAbs.GetValue();
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily read the temperature.
For more information about the pylon API and the pylon Viewer, see Section 3 on page 21.
