Make Your Own Camera Definition Files For GigE

Say you have a 1392x1080 GigE camera and you don't need all the 1080 in the Y direction plus you need it to be faster. Editing the standard camera definition file and creating a new one for that camera may work.
You can change the parameters by the arrows in the image to fit your application.

This example starts at row 180 and goes to row 380 and gives us an image that's 1392 x 200 pixels.

Label Verification Solution

Using a Microscan GigE camera and the Visionscape .NET tool set, we were able to come up with a high speed method of grading 2D and Linear bar codes.


email us for a link to a brief video of it running.

Customize GigE Camera Names

It is possible - thanks to Microscan Visionsupport for this tip to rename the GigE camera to something more meaningful than GigEVision1.

In the c:\vscape\DM folder there is a file called DM.config. Open it in Notepad or something and change the device name where shown on the image and save it.
This assumes you've already connected to the camera previously.
