Image Aquisition -GevSCPSPacketsize in Matlab 2015 - 2019

14 次查看(过去 30 天)
Sometimes it is necessary, to adjust the PacketSize of GigE cameras.
In the Camera XML File is the Minimum, Maximum and Increment defined.
After camera start and open, mostly the Minimum ist set automatically by Matlab.
When I will set a higher value, there are sometimes some errors.
Example: Minimum: 1444 Maximum: 8228 Increment 128
increment means, that the (value - minimum ) must be divisible by icrement -->Example (8228 - 1444 ) / 128 = 53
Test in Matlab:
>> g.GevSCPSPacketSize= 8228
GevSCPSPacketSize can only be changed in increments of 128.
Another Test with 8100
>> g.GevSCPSPacketSize= 8100
GevSCPSPacketSize can only be changed in increments of 128.
It seems, that malab divides the value by 128 and not the difference from value and minimum:
Example 8192 / 128 = 64
>> g.GevSCPSPacketSize= 8192
The GevSCPSPacketSize property could not be set. Check the current value before continuing your work.
This example do not meet the condition of the camera, but matlab allows it.
Is there a problem in the GigE implementation of the Image Acquisition Toolbox?
Thanks a lot
Richard

To trobleshoot that issue get the camera XML file, as cached on the local drive. The folder location for the camera GenICam XML file can be found in the output of IMAQSUPPORT command (GENICAM section -- GENICAM_CACHE_V2_3 path)
Here is an example of the GENICAM section in IMAQSUPPORT output -- the folder location for the camera XML file(s) in this example is "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2014b\GenICamXMLCache":
Clear the cache and try again.

Thank you for answering.
From my side of view the problem is not located in the xml file.
The cache is clear, but that bings no benefit.
The problem is, that MATLAB not accept packet sizes grater than minimum if they are not dividable by the increment value.
This problem occurs when the packet size minumum value itself is not dividable by the increment value.
It seems that MATLAB handles this wrong. Because the difference between packet size and minimum packet size must be dividable by the increment, not the packet size itself.
In all other camera tools there a no problems
Perhaps somebody of the mathworks team could check, how matlab internally proofe the packet size value. I think it is possible that there is something wrong.
Thank you very much

Could you please provide the following information
- Camera manufacturer and model
- The output of imaqsupport command
- Compare behavior when using videoinput with gige adaptor and setting the PacketSize

The camera is a custom model.
The textfile of imaqsupport i have attached
The following command
>> src = getselectedsource(vid);
>> src.PacketSize=8228
src =

Thank you for your response. It appears that setting the PacketSize works with videoinput gige adaptor. Could you please use videoinput gige as a workaround (instead of gigecam).

We have several cameras and a very complex and big matlab script, so this would be a large effort for us to change this.
