How can you check whether your camera is affected? 1. Check the serial number of your camera. If it is less than 400 26 27000, your camera will not be compatible with driver versions > 3.10. 2. Please start the tool "uEyeHardwareCheck“ which is included in the setup. It will check the compatibility of your camera with driver versions > 3.10. To be able to use this tool, a uEye driver has to be installed on the system. If your camera is not compatible with driver versions > 3.10, you can of course continue to use your present driver (up to version 2.40). Please note: The correct firmware of a GigE uEye SE camera is automatically uploaded with driver versions >= 3.40. This process is only available if the firmware version on the camera is also >= 3.40. If not, The camera can not be opened and is labeled respectively in the uEye Camera Manager. The firmware must be uploaded manually over the button 'Upload starter firmware'. The firmware file is located in the installation directory in the folder 'GigE Firmware'. Once updated with the new firmware, the automatic upload is available for future updates. Please note: We recommend not to change the DHCP configuration of the network adapter while operating the uEye cameras. If you encounter difficulties, you should reboot your computer system with the desired configuration. ####################################################################### Notes on this release 3.70 - Support of the UI-124x and UI-524x camera models - Support of the new UI-1008XS-C functions: - is_ScenePreset() - is_Zoom() - is_Sharpness() - is_Saturation() - New API function to suppress disturbances in the trigger mode: - is_TriggerDebounce() - New API function to set a color temperature and color space: - is_ColorTemperature() - The uEyeCrosshair application is now also available as source code - The 64-Bit ActiveX control can now be integrated into Visual Studio projects (C++, C#, VB) ####################################################################### Notes on the additional interfaces 3.70 DirectShow (Interface version 1.10.1.1): - The function SetFormat() now generally accepts negative image heights.
