Programmer's Guide and API Reference for a BCON Adapter library used with pylon

Introduction

Unlike other camera interfaces, e.g. USB, the pylon BCON interface support requires an additional BCON Adapter dynamic link library that has to be created and maintained by the user. This is required because a BCON camera is typically used in a custom hardware design. Therefore the connection of the pylon libraries to the custom BCON host hardware has to be done in an additional BCON Adapter library. For this purpose pylon provides the BCON Adapter API that needs to be implemented. This document shows how to implement, install, and debug a BCON Adapter library.

Programmer's Guide The Programmer's Guide for a BCON Adapter used with pylon is a quick guide on how to build and debug a BCON Adapter dynamic link library. It can be used together with the BCON Adapter sample code in order to get started.
API Reference The API Reference provides documentation about the pylon BCON Adapter interface.
Sample Code The BCON Adapter sample code illustrates the implementation of the pylon BCON Adapter API.

Precautions

Caution: The code snippets provided in this manual are included as sample code only. Inappropriate code may cause your camera to function differently than expected and may compromise your application. To ensure that the snippets will work properly in your application, you must adapt them to meet your specific needs and you must test them thoroughly prior to use.
