20.9.3.3 Programming the power down mode
You can set the power down mode via the Device Control (p. 108) :
#include <mvIMPACT_CPP/mvIMPACT_acquire.h>
#include <mvIMPACT_CPP/mvIMPACT_acquire_GenICam.h>
...
GenICam::DeviceControl device(pDev);
device.mvDevicePowerMode.writeS( "mvStandby" );
Or switch to the power down mode automatically via "mv Device Standby Timeout":
#include <mvIMPACT_CPP/mvIMPACT_acquire.h>
#include <mvIMPACT_CPP/mvIMPACT_acquire_GenICam.h>
...
GenICam::DeviceControl device(pDev);
device.mvDeviceStandbyTimeoutEnable.write( bTrue );
device.mvDeviceStandbyTimeout.write( 10 );
Note
If the power mode of the camera is set to "mvStandby" and the process which operates the camera stops for
any reason the next time a process detects the camera it will automatically wakr up again.
20.9.3.4 Changing the power down mode with wxPropView
Using the power down mode, you have to do the following step:
1. Start wxPropView (p. 74) and
2. connect to the camera.
3. Then in "Setting -> Base -> Camera -> GenICam -> Device Control" you can set the power mode "mv
Device Power Mode" to "mvActive" or "mvStandby".

Or switch to the power down mode automatically via "mv Device Standby Timeout":
1. Start wxPropView (p. 74) and
2. connect to the camera.
3. Then in "Setting -> Base -> Camera -> GenICam -> Device Control" you can enable the standy timeout
"mv Device Standby Timeout Enable" and
4. set the time in seconds via "mv Device Standby Timeout" after which the camera switches to standby if no
register was read.
