Syntax

INT is_GetCameraInfo (HIDS hCam, CAMINFO* pInfo)

Description

is_GetCameraInfo() reads out the data hard-coded in the EEPROM and writes it to the data structure that pInfo points to.

Hinweis

The information from this data structure should not be used to find a specific camera (e.g. in order to control this specific camera). Instead, we recommend identifying a camera by a fixed camera ID or by the sensor ID (see is_GetCameraList()).

Achtung

For technical reasons, the following values for CAMINFO::Type are internally redirected to the same value:

IS_CAMERA_TYPE_UEYE_USB_SE and IS_CAMERA_TYPE_UEYE_USB_RE

as well as

IS_CAMERA_TYPE_UEYE_ETH_SE and IS_CAMERA_TYPE_UEYE_ETH_RE

You can use the parameter strSensorName of the is_GetSensorInfo() function to discern the camera models USB uEye SE and RE.
