Creating the Channel

A channel object is implemented with a special creation function provided by the MultiCam API.

The created channel is defined by a creation model specific to a given frame grabber. For detailed information about these channel creation models, refer to Channel Creation.

The designation of the location where the camera is connected is entered at the creation through the model argument.

Based on the information provided by the topology parameter and by the creation model, the MultiCam system is able to locate the needed grabber resources owned by the frame grabber.
