Detailed Description

A class to control the HDR (High Dynamic Range) parameters of a device (Device specific interface layout only).

Note
Not every device will offer the features provided in this class. Before accessing properties call the function mvIMPACT.acquire.Component.isValid. Right now only the mvBlueFOX-x00wx, mvBlueFOX-x02dx and mvBlueCOUGAR-x00wx as well as mvBlueCOUGAR-x02dx types will support the features defined by this class.
Instances of these class can't be constructed directly. Its parameters can be accessed via an instance of the class mvIMPACT.acquire.CameraSettingsBlueFOX or mvIMPACT.acquire.CameraSettingsBlueCOUGAR.
This class will only be available if mvIMPACT.acquire.Device.interfaceLayout is set to mvIMPACT.acquire.dilDeviceSpecific before the device is opened.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ __init__()

__init__ ( self,
* args,
** kwargs )

Member Function Documentation

◆ getHDRKneePoint()

getHDRKneePoint ( self,
nr )

Returns a reference to a set of user definable parameters to configure a HDR (High Dynamic Range) knee point.

Use the property mvIMPACT.acquire.HDRControl.HDRKneePointCount to find out how many knee points are available or to change the number of knee points.

Returns
A reference to a set of user definable parameters to configure a HDR (High Dynamic Range) knee point.
Parameters
nr[in] The number of the knee point to be returned

◆ getIsAvailable()

getIsAvailable ( self)

This function should be called to check if this device offers HDR (High Dynamic Range) control parameters.

Returns
  • true if the device offers the features defined by this object.
  • false otherwise

◆ hObj()

hObj ( self)
inherited

Returns a unique identifier for the component collection referenced by this object.

This handle will always reference an object of type mvIMPACT.acquire.ComponentList.

Returns
A unique identifier for the component referenced by this object.

◆ restoreDefault()

restoreDefault ( self)
inherited

Restores the default for every component of this collection.

Calling this function will restore the default value for every component belonging to this collection.

Note
The caller must have the right to modify the component. Otherwise an exception will be thrown.
Returns
A const reference to the component.

Property Documentation

◆ HDREnable

HDREnable = property(lib_mvIMPACT_acquire.HDRControl_HDREnable_get, doc=)
static

An enumerated integer property which can be used to enable/disable HDR (High Dynamic Range) mode.

Valid values for this property may be: mvIMPACT.acquire.bFalse, mvIMPACT.acquire.bTrue.

◆ HDRKneePointCount

HDRKneePointCount = property(lib_mvIMPACT_acquire.HDRControl_HDRKneePointCount_get, doc=)
static

An integer property to define the number of knee points to work with when mvIMPACT.acquire.HDRControl.HDRMode is set to mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmUser.

◆ HDRMode

HDRMode = property(lib_mvIMPACT_acquire.HDRControl_HDRMode_get, doc=)
static

An enumerated integer property which can be used to configure the HDR (High Dynamic Range) mode to work with.

Valid values for this property may be: mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmFixed0, mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmFixed1, mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmFixed2, mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmFixed3, mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmFixed4, mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmFixed5, mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmFixed6, mvIMPACT.acquire.cHDRmUser.

◆ isAvailable

isAvailable = property(getIsAvailable, None, None, None)
static

A bool property (read-only) which checks if this device offers HDR (High Dynamic Range) parameters.

See mvIMPACT.acquire.HDRControl.getIsAvailable()

◆ thisown

thisown = property(lambda x: x.this.own(), lambda x, v: x.this.own(v), doc="The membership flag")
