11.21 Configuration Sets
A configuration set is a group of values that contains all
of the parameter settings needed to control the camera.
There are three basic types of configuration sets: the
active configuration set, the default configuration set,
and user configuration sets.
Active Configuration Set
The active configuration set contains the camera’s
current parameter settings and thus determines the
camera’s performance, that is, what your image
currently looks like. When you change parameter
settings using the pylon API or the pylon Viewer, you are
making changes to the active configuration set. The
active configuration set is located in the camera’s
volatile memory and the settings are lost if the camera
is reset or if power is switched off. The active
configuration set is usually called the "active set" for short.
Default Configuration Set
When a camera is manufactured, numerous tests are performed on the camera and three factory
optimized setups are determined. The three factory optimized setups are:
The Standard Factory Setup - is optimized for average conditions and will provide good
camera performance in many common applications. In the standard factory setup, the gain is
set to a low value, and all auto functions are set to off.
The High Gain Factory Setup - is similar to the standard factory setup, but the gain is set to
+6dB.
The Auto Functions Factory Setup - is similar to the standard factory setup, but the Gain Auto
and the Exposure Auto auto functions are both enabled and are set to the continuous mode of
operation. During automatic parameter adjustment, gain will be kept to a minimum.
The factory setups are saved in permanent files in the camera’s non-volatile memory. They are not
lost when the camera is reset or switched off and they cannot be changed.
You can select one of the three factory setups to be the camera’s "default configuration set".
Instructions for selecting which factory setup will be used as the default set appear below. Note that
your selection of which factory setup will serve as the default set will not be lost when the camera
is reset or switched off.
The default configuration set can be loaded into the active set. The default configuration set can
also be selected as the camera’s startup set. Instructions for loading the default set into the active
set and for selecting the startup set appear below.
