Solved Issues History

Unable to start Memento

Fixed an issue that prevented Memento from starting on some Asian versions of Windows.

Stream packet FIFO overflow error

Fixed an issue that could stop the acquisition from line-scan cameras with the following error message: Error: Stream packet FIFO overflow.

Red/Blue Component Swapping

Fixed an issue that prevented to turn off the Red/Blue component swapping of RGB color pixels in all line-scan firmware variants.

samples/cPP/live EGRABBER Sample Program

post-build step also copies Euresys configuration file (config.js) to the project directory so that application running or debugging is possible from the Visual Studio environment

samples/cs/live EGRABBER Sample Program

added explicit cleanup of native Euresys.RGBConverter object before native Euresys.GenTL object

Linux Installation

Fixed installation on Linux kernels 4.9.x and 4.10.x

Unicode characters in Memento messages

Fixed memento builtin object of Euresys GenICam scripts to allow messages containing Unicode characters

EventGetData

Fixed crash that occurred when EventGetData was called with a null pointer for the buffer size argument (piSize)

IFOpenDevice

Fixed return value of IFOpenDevice to GC_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER when called with invalid open flags (was GC_ERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED)

Wait Acknowledgement Messages

Fixed handling of wait acknowledgment messages.

EventNotificationContext for multi-camera variants

Fixed EventNotificationContext for multi-camera variants.

When EventNotificationContext was set to a device or data stream event counter, the context value reported with the notification was the value of the counter for the first device on the card (e.g., with EventNotificationContext1 set to CameraTriggerRisingEdgeEventCount, EVENT_DATA_CUSTOM_CONTEXT_1 reported the number of camera trigger rising edge events on Device0, even for notifications related to Device1)

2-camera Line-scan Acquisition

Fixed issues in "2-camera, line-scan" firmware variant.

GenTL

Fixed an error that occurred with some cameras when setting a string feature to a value shorter than the length of the register used by that feature

Coaxlink

Fixed a race condition in the handling of device interrupts

GenApi

Removed misleading warnings (Cycle trigger skipped or Cycle trigger violation) when CameraControlMethod is EXTERNAL

Coaxlink Quad G3 DF – Line-scan acquisition

Fixed an issue on the master and slave cards of a Coaxlink Quad G3 Data Forwarding chain that prevents the acquisition to stop on execution of a DSStopAcquisition() command when no Cycle Triggers has occurred since the previous DSStartAcquisition() command.

Coaxlink for Linux

Fixed Coaxlinks for running on Linux kernels 4.8 or higher

Fixed an issue that caused third-party drivers to wait forever when they called the Linux kernel function flush_scheduled_work().

GenTL functions

Fixed a few crashes that occurred when some GenTL functions were called with null pointers.

Linux Installation

Fixed installation on Linux kernels 4.6.x for Coaxlink and Memento.

GenICam Browser (Deprecated)

Fixed an issue that caused crashes when the image width or height is null.

Fixed an issue that caused enumeration feature with invalid values to be treated as read-only.

Events

Fixed an issue that sometimes prevented the EventSelector value from being set correctly.

GenICam Browser (Deprecated)

Fixed and issue that caused the 'buffer count' setting to be ignored

Camera and Illumination Controller

Fixed an issue that sometimes caused the camera and illumination controller to allow exposure/readout overlap even when ExposureReadoutOverlap was set to False

Memento

Fixed an issue with user filters based on the verbosity level

EGrabber

EGrabber C++ headers (and EGrabber sample programs) now support clang++

Write-only features treated as read-only in GenICam Browser (Deprecated)

Fixed a bug that caused write-only features to be treated as read-only

Unexpected display of "Cannot start DMA transfers..." traces

Fixed a bug that caused the unexpected display of "Cannot start DMA transfers because the input pool is empty" traces

Missing file from the gentl report archive

Fixed a bug that caused the reg.power.txt file to be missing from the gentl report archive

Missing files in a sample program

Added files that were missing in the amdDirectGMA sample program

Unable to handle kernel paging request (Linux only)

Fixed "BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request" that were observed on some Linux systems.

Broken DSStartAcquisition behavior with line-scan variants

Fixed broken DSStartAcquisition behavior with line-scan variants when iNumToAcquire is finite (i.e. "grab N" scenario).

Cannot start DMA transfers

Fixed a bug that caused the display of "Cannot start DMA transfers because the input pool is empty" traces when the data stream was idle (and there was no reason to start a DMA transfer).

Broken image display in GenICam Browser (Deprecated)

Fixed broken image display after changing pixel format.

Unable to handle one-pixel-high images in GenICam Browser (Deprecated)

Fixed handling of one-pixel-high (one line) images with area-scan variants.

EGrabber C++ classes now belong to Euresys name space

Euresys was defined as an alias of EuresysNative. This caused conflicts when including Open eVision header files.

Fixed delivered image height buffer information

Prior to release 4.4.2, delivered image height BUFFER_INFO_DELIVERED_IMAGEHEIGHT was incorrect.

Fixed a bug that caused "legacy" and "advanced" Bayer decoding methods to be swapped

Prior to release 4.4.1, the IMAGE_CONVERT_OUTPUT_CONFIG_DEFAULT and IMAGE_CONVERT_OUTPUT_CONFIG_BAYER_ADVANCED Bayer decoding methods were swapped.

Fixed display of 10-/12-/14-/16-bit RGBa images in GenICam Browser (Deprecated) and gentl

Prior to release 4.4.1, GenICam Browser (Deprecated) and gentl.exe were unable to display RGBa10/RGBa12/RGBa14/RGBa16 images

Fixed Notification of Write Access Failures to Camera

Prior to release 4.3.1, failing write accesses to the camera were not notified.

Fixed Memento Message Reporting

Prior to release 4.3.1, Memento messages were disabled in line-scan firmware variants

Fixed CoaXPress Test Mode

Prior to release 4.3.1, the CoaXPress connection test (gentl run cxptest) was not operating correctly.

Fixed Memento Message Decoding – Data Packet Numbering

Prior to release 4.3.1, the message indicating a discontinuity in the stream data packet numbering (packet tag) was not properly decoded.

Fixed Memento Message Decoding – Internal Memory Read/Write Error

Prior to release 4.3.1, the message indicating a read/write access error in the Coaxlink internal memory (MIG AXI read/write error) was not properly decoded.

Fixed CycleLostTriggerCount

Prior to release 4.3, the first cycle trigger lost by the Camera and Illumination controller was not taken into account.

Fixed GenICam Browser (Deprecated) crash

Prior to release 4.3, genicam-browser.exe crashes when different camera models are connected.

Fixed BUFFER_INFO_PIXELFORMAT and BUFFER_INFO_PIXELFORMAT_NAMESPACE by taking UnpackingMode into account

Prior to release 4.2, the 16-bit pixel format reported in the CoaXPress image header was reported as is in BUFFER_INFO_PIXELFORMAT. In release 4.2, this pixel format is corrected according to the selected pixel transformation settings (UnpackingMode and RedBlueSwap).

For example: Mono10pmsb is transformed to Mono10 (when UnpackingMode is LSB) or Mono16 (when UnpackingMode is MSB).

Camera and Illumination Controller Stops sending Camera Triggers

With releases prior to 4.2, the Camera and Illumination controller stopped sending Camera Triggers if CameraControlMethod is RG, ExposureReadoutOverlap is Off, and the data stream is stopped during a camera readout.

Compatibility issue between GenApi XML files and GenApi reference implementation

The Coaxlink GenApi XML files delivered with the Coaxlink 4.1 were incompatible with the GenApi reference implementation.

Stream packet FIFO overflow

With releases prior to 4.2 and firmware version prior to 168, "Stream packet FIFO overflow" errors were encountered when using the VC-4MX camera in full resolution.

Stopping acquisitions

With releases prior to 4.1, timeout issues were observed when stopping acquisitions.

Stopping a data stream

With releases prior to 4.0, stopping a data stream was not reliable.

Handling of "bad enum values" retrieved from the camera in gentl.exe

With releases prior to 3.2, the "bad enum values" retrieved from the camera were incorrectly handled.
