1 Description
We have compiled the common problems encountered by secondary developers into a document for reference only.
2 SDK packages, Demos and Manuals
2.1 Download the SDK secondary development package
Q: Where can I download the SDK secondary development kit?
A: Please visit our official website(https://astronomy-imaging-camera.com/software-drivers). On the "Developers" page, you can download our SDK secondary development kit, as shown in the following figure
2.2 Demos and Manuals
Q: Where can I find help documents and Demos?
A: Please unzip our SDK package. You can see Demo and Manual in the following position
2.3 programming language of SDK API?
Q: What programming language interfaces does your SDK API provide?
A: We provide the C language API
3 Function Calling
3.1 Auto Exposure
Q: I want to use auto exposure mode. What should I do?
A: You only need to call the ASISetControlValue function in the following way
ASISetControlValue(iCameraID,ASI_EXPOSURE, theCurrentExposureTime, ASI_TRUE);
Note that the auto exposure mode is only effective in Video mode. That is, the auto exposure mode is only effective when you call ASIGetVideoData. It has no effect on the ASIGetDataAfterExp function
3.2 Alias
Q: When I use SDK v1.23 and earlier versions, I can get the camera name containing the alias through the ASIGetCameraProperty function. When I use SDK v1.24 and later versions, I get only the camera name through the ASIGetCameraProperty function, but no alias. How can I get an alias?
A: You can use ASISetID to set the alias. From SDK V1.24, the camera name output by ASIGetCameraProperty no longer contains alias. You need to obtain alias through ASIGetID function.
4 programing language
4.1 C #/MATLAB/Labview/Java… languages to develop
Q: I'm used to using C #/MATLAB/Labview/Java… languages. Can these languages call the SDK?
A: Our SDK provides the C language API. In general, as long as a programming language can call the C language DLL, it can call our SDK.
