SetExposureTime

Syntax

DOUBLE SetExposureTime (DOUBLE dExp)

Description

SetExposureTime() sets the indicated exposure time in ms. Since the exposure time is adjustable only in multiples of an image line duration, the actually used time can deviate from the desired value. The return value of the function is the effective adjusted exposure time.

Achtung

With changing the window size or the timing readout (pixel clock and frame rate) the exposure time will change also. Therefore SetExposureTime() must be called again after the following functions:

•SetAOI()

•SetPixelClock()

•SetOptimalCameraTiming()

•SetFrameRate()

Hinweis

The minimum and maximum values for the exposure time are dependent on the different types of camera models.

Parameters

dExp	Exposure time in milliseconds.

Return values

Actually used exposure time
IS_NO_SUCCESS	General error message
