Heartbeat

The heartbeat is a mandatory GigE Vision feature to monitor the connection between an application and the
camera. The application must continually reset the heartbeat timer, or the camera assumes an error has occurred
and shuts down the connection.
In general, the Spinnaker API manages the heartbeat at a low level; however the following two features are
controllable: Heartbeat Timeout and Heartbeat Disable.
Heartbeat Timeout
Heartbeat timeout is the time, in milliseconds, that the camera waits before closing the connection. Heartbeat
timeout can be set between 500 ms and 10 seconds. The default setting is 3000 ms (3 seconds). If there is no
communication between the camera and the application for longer than the timeout value, the connection is shut
down.
To control Heartbeat Timeout use:
GenICam—Under Transport Layer Control, GevHeartbeatTimeout.
n
Spinnaker API—The Spinnaker SDK supports configuring heartbeat timeout.
n
Heartbeat Disable
The heartbeat is enabled by default.
To disable Heartbeat use:
GenICam—Under Transport Layer Control GevGVCPHeartbeatDisable.
n
Spinnaker API—The Spinnaker SDK supports disabling heartbeat.
