9.12 Configuration Sets

A configuration set is a group of values that contains all

of the parameter settings needed to control the camera.

There are three basic types of configuration sets: the

active configuration set, the default configuration set,

and user configuration sets.

Active Configuration Set

The active configuration set contains the camera’s

current parameter settings and thus determines the

camera’s performance, that is, what your image

currently looks like. When you change parameter

settings using the pylon API or the pylon Viewer, you are

making changes to the active configuration set. The

active configuration set is located in the camera’s volatile memory and the settings are lost if the

camera is reset or if power is switched off. The active configuration set is usually called the "active

set" for short.

Default Configuration Set

When a camera is manufactured, numerous tests are performed on the camera and two factory

optimized setups are determined. The two factory optimized setups are:

 The Standard Factory Setup - is optimized for average conditions and will provide good

camera performance in many common applications. In the standard factory setup, the gain is

set to a low value, and all auto functions are set to off.

 The High Gain Factory Setup - is similar to the standard factory setup, but the gain is set to

+6dB.

The factory setups are saved in permanent files in the camera’s non-volatile memory. They are not

lost when the camera is reset or switched off and they cannot be changed.

You can select one of the two factory setups to be the camera’s "default configuration set".

Instructions for selecting which factory setup will be used as the default set appear below. Note that

your selection of which factory setup will serve as the default set will not be lost when the camera

is reset or switched off.

The default configuration set can be loaded into the active set. The default configuration set can

also be selected as the camera’s startup set. Instructions for loading the default set into the active

set and for selecting the startup set appear below.

User Configuration Sets

As mentioned above, the active configuration set is stored in the camera’s volatile memory and the

settings are lost if the camera is reset or if power is switched off. The camera can save most of the
