Metadata Control Category; Metadata Control Category Feature Descriptions - Teledyne m640 User Manual

Metadata Control Category

The Genie Nano Metadata controls, as shown by CamExpert, groups features to enable and select
inclusion of chunk data with the image payload (as specified by the specification GigE Vision 1.2).
Parameters in gray are read only, either always or due to another parameter being disabled.
Parameters in black are user set in CamExpert or programmable via an imaging application.
Note: Metadata and Turbo Drive feature availability are currently mutually exclusive with current
released camera firmware.
Features listed in the description table but tagged as Invisible are usually for Teledyne DALSA or
third party software usage—not typically needed by end user applications. Also important, Genie
Nano cameras are available in a number of models implementing different sensors and image
resolutions which may not support the full feature set defined in this category.

Metadata Control Category Feature Descriptions

The following table describes these parameters along with their view attribute and minimum
camera firmware version required. Additionally the Device Version column will indicate which
parameter is a member of the Teledyne DALSA Features Naming Convention (denoted by DFNC),
versus the GenICam Standard Features Naming Convention (SFNC not shown).
Teledyne DALSA provides header files for developers managing Genie Nano LUT data and chunk
payload data as supported by GigE Vision 1.2. Refer to section following the table of metadata
features.
The Device Version number represents the camera software functional group, not a firmware
revision number. As Genie capabilities evolve the device version tag will increase, therefore
identifying the supported function package. New features for a major device version release will be
indicated by green text for easy identification.
