IDS peak 2.15.0 / uEye+ firmware 3.50

IDS Peak comfortSDK, genericSDK, IPL, and AFL developer manuals are external documents. Please contact us if you need them.

The UART functionality is only available for cameras that support UART communication on the hardware. This feature is only supported by the following uEye+ cameras.

•USB 3 uEye+ XCP Rev. 1.2

•USB 3 uEye+ XLE Rev. 1.2

•USB 3 uEye+ XLS Rev. 1.2

The hardware must be Rev. 1.2 (or higher), as UART support is included from this hardware on. The description of the GPIO (General Purpose I/O) can be found in the camera manual of the respective camera family.

Specifies the number of bytes that make up a packet under UART. When you start reception, the camera expects a complete packet with the specified number of bytes on the UART Rx line. Only when the package is complete is it copied to UartRxBuffer.

Use UartRxStop to stop a running receive command and retrieve the data, even if the packet has not been completely received.

Code example

C++

// Determine the current UartRxPacketLength
int64_t value = nodeMapRemoteDevice->FindNode<peak::core::nodes::IntegerNode>("UartRxPacketLength")->Value();
// Set UartRxPacketLength to 10
nodeMapRemoteDevice->FindNode<peak::core::nodes::IntegerNode>("UartRxPacketLength")->SetValue(10);

C#

// Determine the current UartRxPacketLength
long value = nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode<peak.core.nodes.IntegerNode>("UartRxPacketLength").Value();
// Set UartRxPacketLength to 10
nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode<peak.core.nodes.IntegerNode>("UartRxPacketLength").SetValue(10);

Python

# Determine the current UartRxPacketLength (int)
value = nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode("UartRxPacketLength").Value()
# Set UartRxPacketLength to 10 (int)
nodeMapRemoteDevice.FindNode("UartRxPacketLength").SetValue(10)
