Counter and Timer Control Feature Description
The following Counter and Timer Block Diagram describes the parameters along with their view
attributes and minimum camera firmware version required. The Device Version column indicates
which parameter is a member of the DALSA Features Naming Convention (indicated by DFNC),
versus the GenICam Standard Features Naming Convention (SFNC not shown).
The Device Version number represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware
revision number. As Linea SWIR GigE capabilities evolve the device version will increase,
identifying the supported function package. New features for a major device version release will be
indicated by green text for easy identification.
