Parameter Levels

With MultiCam, any hardware or software feature that could profitably benefit of some user controllability is associated to a parameter.

Some of these features are related to the fundamental behavior of the system. There are controlled by high-level parameters. As a general rule, the user acts on these high-level parameters in order to implement the expected behavior.

Other features are controlled by low-level parameters. These parameters will be exercised by the experienced user to fine-tune some functional aspects of the application.

Any parameter possesses one of the following three levels.

Parameter level

Definition

Select

The parameter addresses a fundamental feature of the hardware or software behavior.

Adjust

The parameter addresses an operative mode for the fundamental feature specified by the select-level parameters.

Expert

The parameter can be used by experienced users to modify the operative mode of the fundamental feature ruled by the higher-level parameters.

An application is able to change the value of any parameter regardless to its level.
