Impact Acquire SDK Python
Supported Balluff Device Families

Impact Acquire is designed to offer extensive support for current Balluff/MATRIX VISION imaging and image capture products to customers.

Since some operating systems and processor architectures or programming languages were not supported until a certain version of Impact Acquire was released, the OS support varies among SDK versions for camera families or frame grabber families.

The following lists show the versions of Impact Acquire that introduced a change with respect to the supported device families for this particular programming language as a reference.

Note
These lists will vary across different programming languages as well! So in order to get accurate information make sure you look at these tables within the reference manual of the programming language you are actually working with!
