Figure 1: wxPropView - Setting the sample
Note:
Be aware of the drift of the individual timestamps.
The timestamp is generated via FPGA in the camera which itself is clocked by a crystal
oscillator. This is done independently in each camera and by default not synchronized
among cameras or the host system.
Typical stability of crystal oscillators is in the range 100ppm (parts per million).
I.e. for longer operation times (say in excess of hours) there is a tendency that timestamps
of individual cameras drift against each other and against the time in the operating system of
the host.
Customers wishing to use the individual camera timestamps for synchronization and
identification of images via timestamps for multi-camera systems will have in the meantime
- to reset all timestamps either by hardware signal or by command and regularly
resynchronize or check the drift algorithmically
- in order to make sure that the drift is less half an image frame time.
