Others -> Direct Control opens the bidirectional asynchronous communication channel of
IEEE1394.
Read (quadlet) and Write (quadlet) read and write camera data according to the DCAM
specification. As this works in parallel to live display you may read and write whenever you
want it.
Make shure that you understand the registers before writing to them, so that the result is a
positive one!
Example: Writing 80000000 in F0F00614 starts ISO image transfer (ISO start),
Writing 00000000 in F0F00614 stops ISO transfer (ISO stop).
License Request reads out a unique camera identifying string. This string will be used for
licensing purposes.
If you want to buy the FIRESTACK OHCI license or API for one or more cameras, please
send this string to your local dealer.
The status line of the image displays the count of all displayed images as seen and the count
of all images which it could probably not display as skipped.
The following formula applies: #Seen + #Skipped = #Trigger
E.G. when you click with the mouse on the title bar of the display-window, WINDOWS ™ is
busy and cannot display images. This indicates that the (real time) driver put the images in
the memory , but the (non real time) view task did not get processing time to display them.
Rate displays a mean rate in frames/s.
