After assigning the bank state status to the appropriate output, pick the
button to exit back to the
Acquisition System Settings panel.
The Camera Type scrolling list, as shown in Figure 3.23, appears in two
places: the Acquisition Editor panel, and all of the Camera panels.
Figure 3.23 Example: Camera Type Scrolling List Panel
This list shows all of the “standard” cameras that the Allen–Bradley
Company supports, along with any number of non–standard cameras (such
as “
Camera XYZ ” in the example) that a user has configured for use with
the CVIM2 system.
The highlighted camera name in the scrolling list is the currently selected
camera type (
2801 YC in the example). To select another name, just pick the
name. When you do, the new name is highlighted and the previous name is
unhighlighted.
In the Acquisition Editor panel, you can edit some of the selected camera’s
timing parameters, and you can copy a listed camera type to create a new
non–standard camera type under a different name.
In a Camera panel, the selected camera type should correspond to the type
that will be connected to the camera port whose number is shown in the
Camera panel title bar (such as “Camera 1” ). In addition, you can edit
some of the selected camera’s timing parameters.
Camera Type Edit Panel
The Camera Type edit panel contains several parameter selection boxes and
fields pertaining to the camera timing and scan modes for each camera type.
For the standard Allen–Bradley cameras (2801–YC, –YD, YE, and YF),
most of these parameters are inaccessible –– they cannot be changed. For
non–standard camera types, however, most of the parameters are accessible
and can be changed to whatever values are appropriate for a particular
non–standard camera.
