Event 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.
Display Name Feature & Values Description
Device
Version
& View
Timestamp Latch Cmd timestampControlLatch Latch the current timestamp internal counter value
in the timestampValue feature.
Expert
Timestamp Value timestampValue Returns the 64-bit value of the timestamp, which
is the internal Clock timer or the PTP clock timer,
depending on the Timestamp Source selection.
Expert
DFNC
TimeStamp Source timestampSource Specifies the source used as the incrementing
signal for the Timestamp register.
Expert
Internal Clock InternalClock The timestamp source is generated by the camera
internal clock. Refer to the
timestampTickFrequency feature for the time
base.
IEEE1588 IEEE1588 The timestamp source is controlled by the network
IEEE1588 protocol. This source is automatically
selected when PTP mode is enabled.
Timestamp Tick Frequency timestampTickFrequency Indicates the number of timestamp ticks (or
increments) during 1 second (frequency in Hz).
This feature changes depending on the TimeStamp
Source.
Expert
DFNC
Timestamp Latch Source timestampLatchSource Specifies the internal event or signal that will latch
the timestamp counter into the timestamp buffer.
Expert
Frame Start FrameStart The timestamp is latched on frame start.
Timestamp Reset Cmd timestampControlReset Resets the timestamp counter to 0. This Feature
resets both the internal Clock timer and the PTP
clock timer. Note that the PTP Mode must be
disabled first to reset the PTP clock timer.
Expert
DFNC
Event Selector EventSelector Select the Event to enable/disable with the
EventNotification feature.
Expert
Start of Frame FrameStart Event sent on control channel on an Active Frame.
This occurs with the start of the exposure delay.
Start of Exposure ExposureStart Event sent on control channel on start of
exposure.
End of Exposure ExposureEnd Event sent on control channel on end of exposure.
(N/A for C4900 – 1.06)
Start of Readout ReadoutStart Event sent on control channel on start of sensor
readout. (supported only for C4900)
End of Readout ReadoutEnd Event sent on control channel on end of sensor
readout. (supported only for C4900)
Acquisition Start Next
Valid
AcquisitionStartNextValid Event sent on control channel when the
AcquisitionStart command can be used again.
Valid Frame Trigger ValidFrameTrigger Event sent on control channel when a valid frame
trigger is generated.
