2. Calculate the base transmission time (T
b
) using these formulas:
(round the result up to the nearest integer)
T
b
= Packets per frame x 125 µs
3. Compare the results:
If T
b
≤ T
r
, then T
e
= T
r
+ 250 µs
If T
b
> T
r
, then T
e
= T
b
+ 250 µs
You can determine the value of the Payload Size and Packet Size parameters from within your
application software by using the pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to
work with the parameter values:
// Get payload size
int64_t payloadSize = Camera.PayloadSize.GetValue();
// Set packet size
Camera.PacketSizeSize.SetValue( 4096 );
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 43.
