Events
Genie supports a number of events that a control application can monitor. Events provide real time
notification on various stages of the acquisition sequence and of error conditions. A Sapera application
registers callbacks for those events that need monitoring.
Two types a callbacks can be registered for events when using the Genie:
• Transfer events concerning host system buffers.
• Use the Sapera Transfer Module
• In the Sapera C library: see CorXferRegisterCallback
• In the Sapera++ library: see SapXferCallbackInfo class
• Acquisition events concerning the acquisition device, specifically the Genie camera.
• Use the Sapera Acquisition Module
• In the Sapera C library: see CorAcqRegisterCallback
• In the Sapera++ library: see SapAcqDeviceCallbackInfo class
