Initial parameters

Initial parameters are only set during capture start. To change parameters either restart the stream, or use appropriate Set/Get filters.

Camera identification

When there is only one Ensenso camera connected, the field inDeviceID can be set to Auto. In this situation, the first available camera will be used.

inDeviceID can be used to pick one of multiple cameras connected to the computer. inDeviceID should be set to camera ID.

Camera driver software

This filter is intended to cooperate with cameras using their vendor's SDK. In order to connect with the camera, it is required to install Ensenso SDK software, and uEye driver (same as in IDS camera filters)

Ensenso SDK can be downloaded from the following website: https://www.ensenso.com/support/sdk-download/
