Remarks

Camera driver software

This filter is intended to cooperate with camera using its vendor Hikvision SDK. To be able to connect to camera it is required to install Hikvision Machine Vision Software with camera dedicated drivers. Currently Adaptive Vision Studio uses Hikvision SDK version 3.2.0 (DLL version 3.2.0.3).

Hikvision SDK can be downloaded from the following website: http://en.hikrobotics.com/service/soft.htm?type=1

Setting bandwidth for GigEVision cameras

Bandwidth of Hikvision GigEVision cameras needs to be configured before use, otherwise packet loss and image artifacts may occur.

Open MVS software from Hikvision and connect to the camera. Open Settings / Options menu and go to Network tab. Bandwidth Control slider will be shown. To preserve new value of bandwidth after disconnecting power from the camera, you will need to save it using User Set Control parameters in Features tab.
