You can access the camera's NodeMap via the "Generic Data" dialog. Here, you can also adjust all settings, but in a GenICam-like way.

Click on icon-generic-parameters to open the "Generic parameters" dialog.

You have different options to navigate or search for parameters in this dialog .

At the top left is the drop-down list that you use to control the visibility and thus the number of nodes displayed. The following three user levels are selectable:

oBeginner: Only those nodes are visible that require little or no prior knowledge by the user.

oExpert: Advanced camera functions are visible. Using them requires an advanced knowledge of the camera's functionality.

oGuru: All camera functions are set visible, whose use requires a high level of technical knowledge about the functionality of the camera. If camera functions of this category are not set correctly, the camera may be put into a state where it will not function properly.

In addition, you can use the search field to search for specific nodes. The search is not case sensitive. You can search for multiple keywords by entering 'OR' or '|'. The wildcard '*' replaces one or more characters. Use "quotation marks" for an exact match.

At the bottom of the dialog, you switch between the sections "Remote Device", "Interface", "System", "Local Device" and "Data Stream".

To change the values click the corresponding node. You must stop the image acquisition to make nodes editable.

Click on icon-log-peak-errors to display descriptions of the selected nodes in the lower part of the window.

Click on icon-cameramanager-update to update the displayed values if you have disabled the "Camera parameter polling" option in the "Advanced" settings.

hint_info
