Imaging Commands
Imaging Commands with their modifiers send imaging commands
to the imager on a single-use basis, and take effect for the next
subsequent image capture. Once that capture is complete, the
imager reverts to its imaging default settings. If you wish to
change a default setting, you must use the serial default command.
When the serial default command is used, that selection becomes
the new default setting for the imager.
Image Snap - IMGSNP
An image is taken whenever a trigger command is sent, or when
the Image Snap(IMGSNP) command is processed. Image Snap is
the command processor for image capture, or taking a picture.
The image snap command has many different modifiers that can
be used to change the look of the image in memory. Modifiers
always begin with numbers and end with a letter (case insensitive).
Any number of modifiers may be appended to the IMGSNP
command. For example, you can use the following command to
snap an image, increase the gain, and have the beeper sound once
the snap is complete:

IMGSNP Modifiers
P - Imaging Style: Sets the Image Snap style.
0P Decoding Style. This is similar to the current format for
decoding, however, this processing allows a few frames to be
taken until the exposure parameters are met. Then the last frame is
available for further use.
1P Photo Style (default). This attempts to mimic a simple digital
camera, and results in a visually optimized image.
2P Manual Style. This is an advanced style, and should not
normally be used. It allows you the most freedom to set up the
imager, and has no auto-exposure.
