Description
Below are the camera properties type definitions.
| Value | Description |
| CAMERA_PROPERTY_MONITOR_ACCESS_ONLY | Another application has control (read and write access) of the camera, and therefore may only be initialized for read-only access. See PxLInitializeEx. |
| CAMERA_PROPERTY_NOT_ACCESSIBLE | Another application has exclusive access to the camera. No other access is permitted. |
| CAMERA_PROPERTY_IP_UNREACHABLE | This camera cannot be accessed because the camera and the NIC are on different subnets. |
Usage
The CameraProperties field of CAMERA_ID_INFO returned by PxLGetNumberCamerasEx can be used to determine IP-specific properties of the camera.
PxLInitializeEx can be used to acquire either read-write or read-only access to the camera.
The Pixelink API currently does not support acquiring exclusive access to a camera. The property CAMERA_PROPERTY_NOT_ACCESSIBLE can only be seen when querying a camera which is being controlled by a GEV application which has exclusive access.
