Camera Discovery Delay & Command Timeout Control
Last Updated 3 years ago
The Camera Discovery Delay and Camera Command Timeout can be configured for a particular camera.
The camera discovery delay sets the delay time before camera discovery is initiated. The discovery delay is set in milliseconds and waits for the specified time after the camera scan call is initiated. At the end of the specified period, the camera discovery process will start according to the configured camera discovery mode.
Before camera detection, the camera command timeout should be increased for cameras with longer initialization than the default value.
For multiple camera detection, the Camera Command Timeout should be modified for all the cameras, according to the camera with the longest initialization period, to ensure proper camera detection. This option is located in the Vision Point application under the Frame Grabber tab “Control” category, as shown in the image below.
