IDS peak 2.8.0 / uEye+ firmware 3.33

Sets the acquisition mode of the camera. It defines the number of images to capture during an acquisition.

Values description

•SingleFrame: One image is captured.

•MultiFrame: The number of images specified by AcquisitionFrameCount is captured. This feature is only supported by uEye+ cameras (GV and U3 models).

•Continuous: Images are captured until stopped with the AcquisitionStop command.

Code example

C++

// Determine the current entry of AcquisitionMode
std::string value = nodeMapRemoteDevice->FindNode<peak::core::nodes::EnumerationNode>("AcquisitionMode")->CurrentEntry()->SymbolicValue();
// Get a list of all available entries of AcquisitionMode
auto allEntries = nodeMapRemoteDevice->FindNode<peak::core::nodes::EnumerationNode>("AcquisitionMode")->Entries();
std::vector<std::shared_ptr<peak::core::nodes::EnumerationEntryNode>> availableEntries;
for(const auto & entry : allEntries)
{
  if ((entry->AccessStatus()!=peak::core::nodes::NodeAccessStatus::NotAvailable)
          && (entry->AccessStatus()!=peak::core::nodes::NodeAccessStatus::NotImplemented))
  {
      availableEntries.emplace_back(entry);
  }
}
// Set AcquisitionMode to "SingleFrame"
nodeMapRemoteDevice->FindNode<peak::core::nodes::EnumerationNode>("AcquisitionMode")->SetCurrentEntry("SingleFrame");

C#

// Determine the current entry of AcquisitionMode
string value = nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode<peak.core.nodes.EnumerationNode>("AcquisitionMode").CurrentEntry().SymbolicValue();
// Get a list of all available entries of AcquisitionMode
allEntries = nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode<peak.core.nodes.EnumerationNode>("AcquisitionMode").Entries();
List<string> availableEntries = new List<string>();
for(int i = 0; i < allEntries.Count(); ++i)
{
  if ((allEntries[i].AccessStatus() != peak.core.nodes.NodeAccessStatus.NotAvailable)
          && (allEntries[i].AccessStatus() != peak.core.nodes.NodeAccessStatus.NotImplemented))
  {
      availableEntries.Add(allEntries[i].SymbolicValue());
  }
}
// Set AcquisitionMode to "SingleFrame"
nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode<peak.core.nodes.EnumerationNode>("AcquisitionMode").SetCurrentEntry("SingleFrame");

Python
