Nano Series GigE Vision Camera Operational Reference • 207
Acquisition and Transfer Control Feature Descriptions
The following table describes these parameters along with their view attribute and minimum
camera firmware version required. Additionally the Device Version column will indicate which
parameter is a member of the DALSA Features Naming Convention (denoted by DFNC), versus the
GenICam Standard Features Naming Convention (SFNC tag is not shown).
The Device Version number represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware
revision number. As Genie Nano capabilities evolve the device version tag will increase, therefore
identifying the supported function package. New features for a major device version release will be
indicated by green text for easy identification.

Acquisition Status
Selector
AcquisitionStatusSelector Selects the internal acquisition signal to read
using AcquisitionStatus.

Acquisition Active AcquisitionActive Device is currently doing an acquisition of one or
many frames.
Acquisition Trigger
Wait
AcquisitionTriggerWait Device is currently waiting for a trigger to start
the acquisition. (Ver. 1.05)
Acquisition Status AcquisitionStatus Reads the state of the internal acquisition signal
selected using the Acquisition Status Selector
feature. (i.e. False / True)

Expert
Acquisition Mode AcquisitionMode Set the acquisition mode of the device. It defines
the number of frames to capture during an
acquisition and the way the acquisition stops.
Beginner
Single Frame SingleFrame One frame is captured for each AcquisitionStart
Command. An AcquisitionStop occurs at the end
of the Active Frame.
Multi-Frame MultiFrame A sequence of frames is captured for each
AcquisitionStart Command. The number of frames
is specified by AcquisitionFrameCount feature. An
AcquisitionStop occurs at the end of the Active
Frame(s)
Continuous Continuous Frames are captured continuously with
AcquisitionStart until stopped with the
AcquisitionStop command.
Acquisition Frame Count AcquisitionFrameCount Number of frames to be acquired in MultiFrame
acquisition mode.
Beginner
Internal Acquisition FPS internalAcquisitionFPS Specifies the camera internal frame rate, in Hz.
Use the AcquisitionFrameRate feature to control
this value.
Guru
Internal Acquisition
Frame Drop Count
internalAcquisitionFrameDropCount Number of acquired frames to drop internally
between each transmitted frame Note that
acquisition events will be generated for all
frames, even if they are subsequently dropped.
Guru
Resulting Frame Rate resultingTransferFPS Reports the transfer frame rate, based on the
current AcquisitionFrameRate and
internalAcquisitionFrameDropCount. This feature
does not take bandwidth limitations into account.
Guru
Acquisition Arm Cmd AcquisitionArm Arms the device before an AcquisitionStart
command. This optional command validates all
the current features for consistency and prepares
the device for a fast start of the acquisition. If not
used explicitly, this command is automatically
executed at the first AcquisitionStart but will not
be repeated for subsequent ones unless a data
transfer related feature is changed in the device.
Guru
Acquisition Start Cmd AcquisitionStart Start image capture using the currently selected
acquisition mode. The number of frames captured
is specified by AcquisitionMode feature.
