Driver installation
Related to models: all
For proper installation of the uEye Capture Device Filter, the uEye Interface
for Microsoft Direct Show, please make sure that you have installed the uEye
device driver beforehand.
The Capture Device Filter can be installed using the main setup application.
For manual installation purpose run the Install.bat batch file delivered with
this installation package. Run the installation prior connecting the camera.
The interface library will register itself for usage with Direct Show.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
The current Interface version 1.03.0007 requires a uEye device driver version
2.00.0010 or higher. It is strongly recommended to update your uEye device
driver to this version or a newer one.
TRIGGERED IMAGE CAPTURE:
To enable the triggered mode, call the SetMode function of the filters
IAMVideoControl Interface with the ExternalTrigger flag set.
Make sure you disable it before stopping the stream, or provide an extra
trigger signal when stopping, otherwise the capture thread wont end until it
runs into a timeout.
Note that triggered capture is not available for all uEye models.
