Loading the CamFile

The loading of a CamFile into a MultiCam channel is a matter of setting the CamFile parameter of a MultiCam channel to the value of the CamFile name (without the .cam extension)

When a CamFile is loaded, it is simply interpreted by the MultiCam driver as a series of "set parameter" function calls.

Examples

The following lines of code implement possible CamFile parameter assignment to a MultiCam channel defined in a Domino board (depends of the camera).

MCSTATUS Status = McSetParamStr(MyChannel, MC_CamFile, "VCC-870A_P15RA");
MCSTATUS Status = McSetParamStr(MyChannel, MC_CamFile, "KP-F3_I60SM");
MCSTATUS Status = McSetParamStr(MyChannel, MC_CamFile, "XC-ES30CE_I50SM_R");

The following lines of code implement possible camera assignment to a MultiCam channel defined in a Grablink board (depends of the camera).

MCSTATUS Status = McSetParamStr(MyChannel, MC_CamFile, "4000m_P16RG");
MCSTATUS Status = McSetParamStr(MyChannel, MC_CamFile, "Colibri2048CL_L2048RG");
