Timeout Values for Image Capture
When you call is_FreezeVideo() or is_CaptureVideo() , the timeout value for the image
capture is determined from the Wait parameter. If no image arrives within this timeout period, a
timeout error message is issued. Under Windows, a dialogue box is displayed if you have enabled
error reports (see is_SetErrorReport() ). Information on the error cause can be queried using
is_GetCaptureErrorInfo() .
The following table shows the effect of the Wait parameter depending on the image capture mode:
