DCx Cameras
4 Programming (SDK)
In addition to the drivers, the uc480 software Development Kit (SDK) includes the uc480 Camera Manager , the
uc480 Viewer and the uc480 API programming interface for creating your own DCx programs under Windows
and Linux. Numerous demo applications make it easy for you to get started with programming. The uc480 API
offers you over 150 commands with which you can access all the parameters and functions of your DCx camera.
This chapter contains all the information you need to integrate the DCx camera in your own applications using the
uc480 API.
Note
Older Functions
We are continuously extending and enhancing the uc480 API. The resulting product upgrades sometimes require
replacing obsolete functions with new ones. If it is necessary to continue working with the older functions, it is
possible to add the uc480_deprecated.h header file additionally to the ueye.h header file. The
uc480_deprecated.h header file contains all obsolete function definitions and constants which are no longer
part of the ueye.h header file.
