eGrabber Driver

The eGrabber Driver is a library of classes that provides an easy-to-use programming interface for image acquisition from Coaxlink and Grablink Duo frame grabbers. eGrabber features a high-level, object oriented, user-friendly API compatible with C++, C# and Python.

Frame Grabbers

• New “4-camera, line-scan” firmware variant for PC3625 Coaxlink QSFP+

This release of eGrabber adds the “4-camera, line-scan” firmware variant for PC3625 Coaxlink QSFP+.
The “4-camera, line-scan” firmware variant allows connecting up to four single-connection line-scan cameras to PC3625 Coaxlink QSFP+ via a breakout cable.

• Extended support for 1X_2YE TapGeometry
  

This release of eGrabber adds the support for 1X_2YE TapGeometry to the “1-camera” firmware variant of PC3622 Coaxlink Duo CXP-12 and PC3622-LH Coaxlink Duo CXP-12 LH frame grabbers.
The 1X_2YE tap geometry is a configuration used in CoaXPress for area-scan cameras that feature two zones across the vertical direction.

eGrabber Studio

• Opening multiple sources at the same time
  

This release of eGrabber adds the possibility to open multiple sources at the same time from the Welcome Tab.

• Multi-part display for GenDC
  

Added multi-part display support for buffers with GenDC payload type. Each GenDC part can now be enabled or disabled for display from the Buffer pane.

• Improvements on the Features Pane
  

This release of eGrabber brings the following improvements to the GenApi tree of the Features Pane:

– Added multi-bank support, which enables the tree view to adapt to the number of sub-grabbers and display all feature values in a merged tree.
– For string-based selectors, the tree view can show the selected features as selector children; the option can be enabled/disabled individually per selector from the context menu option “Show All Selector Values”.
– The GenApi feature values indicate the status of the pending operations (i.e. whether a feature value is currently being updated, read or written).
– The tooltips of GenApi feature now also include the access mode or the current operation status when applicable.
– Added Copy/Paste of tree item content (using the standard key sequences); this simplifies the configuration process of sub-grabbers by replicating values in multi-bank cases.
