Table 15: Function list memory handling
There is the possibility of new recording variations in combination with the memory
expansion module for the uEye camera family. New SDK functions have been provided for
control and the functionality of existing functions has been expanded.
Designations for the two recording modes depend on whether a trigger signal ends or starts the
recording
● Pre-Trigger and
● Post-Trigger Modus.
Pre-Trigger
The memory board records continuous images in this mode. When the trigger is released, the
recording is terminated and the n last images are available in the camera memory.
● Preparation
The function is_SetExternalTrigger activates the trigger input of the camera. The camera is
prepared for memory saving with the function is_SetMemoryMode.
The order of the functions is_SetMemoryMode and is_SetExternalTrigger is random.
If the trigger is deactivated with is_SetExternalTrigger(hCamera, IS_SET_TRIG_OFF) the recording
is terminated directly upon invoking is_StopLiveVideo.
