Standard Features
Basler scout light 121
9.9 Acquisition Status
When controlling image acquisition with a software trigger you can use the acquisition staus feature
to detemine when the camera is ready to be triggered for an image acquisition. Using this feature,
you can avoid triggering the camera at a rate that exceeds the maximum allowed with the current
camera settings.
Determining the Acquisition Status
To determine the acquisition status of the camera:
Use the Acquisition Status Selector to select the Frame Trigger Wait status.
Read the value of the AcquisitionStatus parameter. If the value is set to "false", the camera is
not ready to receive a software trigger, if the value is set to "true", the camera is ready to
receive a software trigger.
You can set the Acquisition Status Selector and read the AcquisitionStatus parameter from within
your application software by using the pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the
API to set and read the parameter values:
// Set the Acquisition Status Selector
Camera.AcquisitionStatusSelector.SetValue(
AcquisitionStatusSelector_FrameTriggerWait );
// Read the acquisition status
bool IsWaitingForFrameTrigger = Camera.AcquisitionStatus.GetValue();
For detailed information about using the pylon API, refer to the Basler pylon Programmer’s Guide
and API Reference.
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the Acquisition Status Selector.
Note
It is not possible to monitor the status of the Acquisition Start command.
Therefore, you can not use the status of the Acquisition Start command to
determine when the camera is ready to be triggered for an image acquisition.
