Related Parameters
You can set the Trigger Mode and Trigger Source parameter values for the acquisition start trigger
and the Acquisition Frame Count parameter value from within your application software by using
the pylon API.
The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set the acquisition start Trigger Mode to on,
the Trigger Source to software, and the Acquisition Frame Count to 5:
// Select the acquisition start trigger
Camera.TriggerSelector.SetValue( TriggerSelector_AcquisitionStart );
// Set the mode for the selected trigger
Camera.TriggerMode.SetValue( TriggerMode_On );
// Set the source for the selected trigger
Camera.TriggerSource.SetValue ( TriggerSource_Software );
// Set the acquisition frame count
Camera.AcquisitionFrameCount.SetValue( 5 );
The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set the Trigger Mode to on, the Trigger
Source to line 1, the Trigger Activation to rising edge, and the Acquisition Frame Count to 5:
// Select the acquisition start trigger
Camera.TriggerSelector.SetValue( TriggerSelector_AcquisitionStart );
// Set the mode for the selected trigger
Camera.TriggerMode.SetValue( TriggerMode_On );
// Set the source for the selected trigger
Camera.TriggerSource.SetValue ( TriggerSource_Line1 );
// Set the activation mode for the selected trigger to rising edge
Camera.TriggerActivation.SetValue( TriggerActivation_RisingEdge );
// Set the acquisition frame count
Camera.AcquisitionFrameCount.SetValue( 5 );
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the parameters.
