Camera Information

Introduction

These functions are retrieving the information from the camera device.

VxGetUSBFirmwareVersion

• Function:

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

def VxGetUSBFirmwareVersion(vxcam)

• Function Description:

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

• Parameter Description:

1. vxcam: A pointer shared ownership of a camera obtained from VxInitialCameraDevice().

2. fwVer: A string to store the firmware version.

3. Return:

   1. C++: return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL

   2. Python: tuple(return_code, fwVer)

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

• Example:

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

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

VxGetTEVSFirmwareVersion

• Function:

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

def VxGetTEVSFirmwareVersion(vxcam)

• Function Description:

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

• Parameter Description:

1. vxcam: A pointer shared ownership of a camera obtained from VxInitialCameraDevice().

2. fwVer: A string to store the firmware version.

3. Return:

   1. C++: return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL

   2. Python: tuple(return_code, fwVer)

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

• Example:

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

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

VxGetSensorUniqueID

• Function:

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

def VxGetSensorUniqueID(vxcam)

• Function Description:

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

• Parameter Description:

1. vxcam: A pointer shared ownership of a camera obtained from VxInitialCameraDevice().

2. uniqueId: A string to store the sensor ID.

3. Return:

   1. C++: return 0 = PASS, return -1 = FAIL

   2. Python: tuple(return_code, uniqueId)

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

• Example:

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

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