10.19.3 Loading a Saved User Set or the Default Set into
the Active Set
If you have saved a configuration set into one of the user sets in the camera’s non-volatile memory,
you can load the saved user set into the camera’s active set. When you do this, the parameters
stored in the user set overwrite the parameters in the active set. Since the settings in the active set
control the current operation of the camera, the settings from the loaded user set will now be
controlling the camera.
You can also load the default set into the camera’s active set.
Loading a saved user set or the default set from the camera’s non-volatile memory into the active
set using Basler pylon is a two step process:
Set the User Set Selector to User Set 1, User Set 2, User Set 3, or Default as desired.
Execute a User Set Load command to load the selected set into the active set.
You can use the pylon API to set the User Set Selector and to execute the User Set Load command
from within your application software. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set the
selector and execute the command:
// Load user set 2 into the active set
Camera.UserSetSelector.SetValue( UserSetSelector_UserSet2 );
Camera.UserSetLoad.Execute( );
// Load the default set into the active set
Camera.UserSetSelector.SetValue( UserSetSelector_Default );
Camera.UserSetLoad.Execute( );
For more information about the pylon API and the pylon Viewer, see Section 3 on page 21.
Loading a user set or the default set into the active set is only allowed when the
camera is idle, i.e. when it is not acquiring an image.
Assuming that you have selected the standard factory setup as the default set,
loading the default set into the active set is a good course of action if you have
grossly misadjusted the settings in the camera and you are not sure how to
recover. The standard factory setup is optimized for use in typical situations and
will provide good camera performance in most cases.
