Parameters

stepsPerLine: Type: System Int32
The number of encoder steps per line.

step16thsPerLine: Type: System Int32
The number fractional steps per line as 1/16th steps that can be added to stepsPerLine to make up a single line.

Remarks

Set the number of encoder steps per image line. The number of steps is stepsPerLine + step16thsPerLine/16.

When using the test encoder with the test line scan camera ("Test LS 2048x2048"), the minimum steps per line you can use without getting e_CogAcq_EncoderOverrun errors is:

minStepsPerLine = (width + xROI) / 64 + 2

Where width is the width of the CogAcqROI and xROI is the x-coordinate of the region of interest. If xROI is zero, the smallest value you can use with the test encoder without getting e_CogAcq_EncoderOverrun errors is 34 for 2048-pixel-wide images and 18 for 1024-pixel-wide images.

See How to Set Steps per Line for Linescan Cameras for additional information about choosing appropriate values.

Note: steps16thsPerLine is ignored on MVS-8600.
