ParityDetection

C, C++

MC_ParityDetection

.NET

MC.ParityDetection

Numerical

1721

This parameter applies to interlaced area-scan Camera Link cameras.

It declares how to detect the parity of acquired fields.

Possible values

Name

Identifier

Description

NONE

MC_ParityDetection_NONE

For progressive camera, field parity is irrelevant.

FIXEDFRAME

MC_ParityDetection_FIXEDFRAME

The camera sends the two fields while FVAL is high: up field, then down field.

FIXEDFRAME_INV

MC_ParityDetection_FIXEDFRAME_INV

The camera sends the two fields while FVAL is high: down field, then up field.

FI_SPARE

MC_ParityDetection_FI_SPARE

The camera gives the parity of fields using SPARE signal.

FI_SPARE_INV

MC_ParityDetection_FI_SPARE_INV

The camera gives the parity of fields using SPARE active low signal.

FI_LVAL

MC_ParityDetection_FI_LVAL

The camera gives the parity of fields using LVAL signal.

FI_LVAL_INV

MC_ParityDetection_FI_LVAL_INV

The camera gives the parity of fields using LVAL active low signal.

FI_DVAL

MC_ParityDetection_FI_DVAL

The camera gives the parity of fields using DVAL signal.

FI_DVAL_INV

MC_ParityDetection_FI_DVAL_INV

The camera gives the parity of fields using DVAL active low signal.

Set ParityDetection to FIXEDFRAME if camera has previous timing

Set ParityDetection to FIXEDFRAME_INV if camera has previous timing

Set ParityDetection to FI_SPARE, FI_LVAL or FI_DVAL if camera has previous timing.
Frame grabber detects logic level at rising edge of FVAL.

Set ParityDetection to FI_SPARE_INV, FI_LVAL_INV or FI_DVAL_INV if camera has previous timing.
Frame grabber detects logic level at rising edge of FVAL.
