The install and setup guide includes extensive information about how to install both hardware and
software and how to begin capturing images. It also describes the recommended network adapters,
describes the recommended architecture for the network to which your camera is attached, and
deals with the IP configuration of your camera and network adapter.
After completing your camera installation, refer to the "Basler Network Drivers and Parameters" and
"Network Related Camera Parameters and Managing Bandwidth" sections of this camera User’s
Manual for information about improving your camera’s performance in a network and about using
multiple cameras.
After the camera is powered on, pylon software processes a camera description
file included in the camera to make the camera features available for use.
The following camera description files are available and are used alternatively:
The "Full" camera description file providing all features.
The "Basic" camera description file providing most features.
Processing the "Full" camera description file takes more time than processing the
"Basic" camera description file. Accordingly, processing the "Basic" camera
description file requires a shorter period to elapse until the camera features are
available for use.
After the initial start of the camera, the Basler aviator GigE camera is configured
by the factory to process the "Full" camera description file.
If you do not require all features, and if you want to make the camera features
sooner available, you must activate the "Basic" camera description file.
For more information, particularly about activating a camera description file and
about the features not provided by the smaller camera description file, see
Section 10.20 on page 260.
