Device Control
Device Control provides you with device information and allows you to control some device parameters.
General Information
Use Device User ID to enter a unique device name. This information is retained over power cycles.
Use Device Indicator Mode to control the status LED. The LED can be active, inactive, or in error mode.
Bandwidth
Information about the bandwidth usage and link speed is provided.
Use Device Link Throughput Limit to specify what bandwidth is used for the streaming of data. This affects the maximum frame rate. This must be less that the Device Max Throughput.
Timestamp
Use Timestamp Latch to capture the current timestamp of the device.
Power Supply
Use the Device Power Supply Selector to choose a power supply, either External or Sensor (Internal). External power is either through the device interface or through GPIO.
Device Reset
Use Device Reset to soft reboot the camera. Use Factory Reset to clear any user tables loaded and perform a soft reboot of the camera.
