Camera Information

Introduction

These functions are retrieving the information from the camera device.

VxGetUSBFirmwareVersion

Function:

C++

int VxGetUSBFirmwareVersion(std::shared_ptr<VxCamera> vxcam, std::string& fwVer)

Python

def VxGetUSBFirmwareVersion(vxcam)

Function Description:

• This function retrieves the firmware version of the connected USB camera.

Parameter Description:

• vxcam : A pointer shared ownership of a camera obtained from VxInitialCameraDevice().
• fwVer : A string to store the firmware version.
• Return:
  • C++ : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL
  • Python : tuple(return_code, fwVer)

    return_code : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL

Example:

C++

std::string fwVer;
// get the version of USB device firmware
VxGetUSBFirmwareVersion(vxcam, fwVer);

Python

# get the version of USB device firmware
result, fwVer = pyvizionsdk.VxGetUSBFirmwareVersion(vxcam)
print("USB firmware version:", fwVer)
print("Return code:", result)

VxGetTEVSFirmwareVersion

Function:

C++

int VxGetTEVSFirmwareVersion(std::shared_ptr<VxCamera> vxcam, std::string& fwVer)

Python

def VxGetTEVSFirmwareVersion(vxcam)

Function Description:

• This function retrieves the firmware version of the connected TEVS camera.

Parameter Description:

• vxcam : A pointer shared ownership of a camera obtained from VxInitialCameraDevice().
• fwVer : A string to store the firmware version.
• Return:
  • C++ : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL
  • Python : tuple(return_code, fwVer)

    return_code : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL

Example:

C++

std::string fwVer;
// get the version of TEVS device firmware
VxGetTEVSFirmwareVersion(vxcam, fwVer);

Python

# get the version of TEVS device firmware
result, fwVer = pyvizionsdk.VxGetTEVSFirmwareVersion(vxcam)
print("TEVS firmware version:", fwVer)
print("Return code:", result)

VxGetSensorUniqueID

Function:

C++

int VxGetSensorUniqueID(std::shared_ptr<VxCamera> vxcam, std::string& uniqueId)

Python

def VxGetSensorUniqueID(vxcam)

Function Description:

• This function is used to retrieve the unique ID from the sensor.

Parameter Description:

• vxcam : A pointer shared ownership of a camera obtained from VxInitialCameraDevice().
• uniqueId : A string to store the sensor ID.
• Return:
  • C++ : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL
  • Python : tuple(return_code, uniqueId)

    return_code : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL

Example:

C++

std::string uniqueId;
// get the sensor id
VxGetSensorUniqueID(vxcam, uniqueId);

Python

# get the sensor id
result, uniqueId = pyvizionsdk.VxGetSensorUniqueID(vxcam)
print("Sensor unique ID:", uniqueId)
print("Return code:", result)

VxGetSensorFirmwareVersion

Function:

C++

int VxGetSensorFirmwareVersion(std::shared_ptr<VxCamera> vxcam, std::string& fwVer)

Python

def VxGetSensorFirmwareVersion(vxcam)

Function Description:

• This function is used to retrieve the firmware version from the sensor.

Parameter Description:

• vxcam : A pointer shared ownership of a camera obtained from VxInitialCameraDevice().
• fwVer : A string to store the firmware version.
• Return:
  • C++ : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL
  • Python : tuple(return_code, fwVer)

    return_code : return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL

Example:

C++

std::string fwVer;
// get the firmware version
VxGetSensorFirmwareVersion(vxcam, fwVer);

Python

# get the sensor id
result, fwVer = pyvizionsdk.VxGetSensorFirmwareVersion(vxcam)
print("Sensor firmware version:", fwVer)
print("Return code:", result)
