94 Basler racer GigE
You can set the Exposure Time Raw parameter value from within your application software by using
the pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set the parameter values:
Camera.ExposureMode.SetValue( ExposureMode_Timed );
Camera.ExposureTimeRaw.SetValue( 2 );
For detailed information about using the pylon API, refer to the Basler pylon Programmer’s Guide
and API Reference.
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the parameters.
For more information about the pylon Viewer, see Section 3.1 on page 23.
Setting the Exposure Time Using "Absolute" Settings
You can also set the exposure time with an "absolute" parameter. This is accomplished by setting
the camera’s Exposure Time Abs parameter. The unit for the Exposure Time Abs parameter is µs.
The increment for the Exposure Time Abs parameter is determined by the Exposure Time Base Abs
parameter value, i.e. 100 ns. For example, you can set the Exposure Time Abs parameter to
15.0 µs, 15.1 µs, 15.2 µs, etc.
Note that if you set the Exposure Time Abs parameter to a value that is not a multiple of the
Exposure Time Base parameter value (i.e., 100 ns), the camera will automatically change the
setting for the Exposure Time Abs parameter to the nearest multiple of 100 ns.
You should also be aware that if you change the exposure time using the raw settings, the Exposure
Time Abs parameter will automatically be updated to reflect the new exposure time.
You can set the Exposure Time Abs parameter value from within your application software by using
the pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set the parameter value:
Camera.ExposureTimeAbs.SetValue( 124.0 );
double resultingExpTime = Camera.ExposureTimeAbs.GetValue( );
For detailed information about using the pylon API, refer to the Basler pylon Programmer’s Guide
and API Reference.
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the parameters.
For more information about the pylon Viewer, see Section 3.1 on page 23.
The setting for the Exposure Time Abs parameter must be between the minimum
and the maximum allowed values (inclusive) shown in Table 8 on page 90.
