The Grasshopper line of IEEE-1394 cameras complies with the IIDC 1394-based Digital Camera
(DCAM) Specification Version v1.31.
To determine the specific DCAM v1.31 features implemented in a particular Grasshopper model,
consult the following sections of the PGR IEEE-1394 Digital Camera Register Reference.
Inquiry Registers for Basic Functions
Inquiry Registers for Feature Presence
Inquiry Registers for Feature Elements
You can query the registers described in these sections to identify whether specific features have
been implemented. For a complete description of the Camera Control Command Registers
implemented on the Grasshopper, please refer to the PGR IEEE-1394 Digital Camera Register
Reference, included with the PGR FlyCapture SDK and downloadable from
