26 Operational Reference Falcon™ 4-CLHS Series
Camera Feature Categories
The following sections describe the available categories and their features in detail.
Many of the features shown in CamExpert may be changed directly in CamExpert or
programmatically via an imaging application. Their availability may depend on other feature
settings, and while some features are read only, others may be changed during acquisition. Note
that features shown by CamExpert may change with different Falcon4 models implementing
different sensors and image resolutions; that is, a specific camera model may not support the full
feature set defined in a category.
The tables found in each category describe the features and their possible values, along with their
view attribute (beginner, expert, guru) and the device version in which the feature was introduced.
A device version number represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware revision
number. As Falcon4 capabilities evolve, the device version increases, identifying the supported
function package. New features for a major device version release are indicated by green text for
easy identification. For each feature, the device version may differ for each camera sensor
available.
The last column also indicates whether the parameter is a member of the DALSA Features Naming
Convention (DFNC), or of the GenICam Standard Features Naming Convention (SFNC–tag not
shown). Features tagged as Invisible are usually for Teledyne DALSA or third party software
usage—not typically needed by end user applications.
