ICogAcqLineScan UseSingleChannelRemarks
If UseSingleChannel is set to true, it might be possible to connect only a single encoder channel as input instead of using a quadrature dual channel type encoder. The channel that is used depends upon the setting of AcquireDirectionPositive. If AcquireDirectionPositive is true, channel A is used.If false, channel B is used. One advantage of using a single channel encoder input is in some cases it might be desirable to acquire without considering the direction of motion of the encoder.
Note that the L4000 hardware will count encoder pulses like a 2x encoder resolution while other platforms will count pulses like it is a 1x resolution.
The default value is false indicating both encoder channels A and B are considered for acquisition on platforms supporting this functionality.See Also
