problems with matching cables and creating interface files are eliminated.
The features/benefits of the driver and SDK include:
- Supports special features on Basler
cameras such as test images and shading correction - you have easy access to your camera's
complete functionality
- Includes an integrated camera viewer
program that lets you quickly start grabbing images
- Source code for the viewer program is
provided to serve as a reference for your programming tasks
- Fully documented with a programmers
guide, a reference guide, and extensive code samples to help minimize your learning time
- With the BCAM driver, you receive
integrated camera/driver support and avoid the problems normally associated with using a
device and a driver from different vendors
- Includes a high level and a low level
interface letting you match your level of driver access to the complexity of your needs
- C++ source code provided for the user
mode
The driver has been extensively
tested with a variety of 1394 interface boards to offer you a new level of reliability.
You can purchase a Basler 1394 camera and the BCAM 1394 Driver with confidence knowing
that they were designed to work together and that support for both is a single phone call

BCAM 1394 Driver Version History |
V1.0 - Initial release of the
driver. Designed for use with Windows 2000 (SP2) only.
V1.5 - Windows XP compatibility added. Various bug fixes were implemented. This
version of the driver works with Windows 2000 (SP3) or Windows XP (SP1).
V1.6 - New features were added including a bus topology viewer and a bus access
driver. Support for MS Visual Studio.Net was added to the SDK. The documentation was
improved significantly. Additional bug fixes were made. This version of the driver works
with Windows 2000 (SP3) or Windows XP (SP1).
Programs compiled against earlier versions of the driver must be recompiled against V1.6
to operate properly.
V1.7 - The driver installation package was updated so that the newest models of
Basler IEEE 1394 cameras (A102f, A102fc, A600fc, A600-HDR) will be recognized and properly
associated with the driver during installation. Small bugs in the BCAM viewer program were
fixed. This version of the driver works with Windows 2000 (SP3) or Windows XP (SP1).
This is the first version of the driver that will let you use the "smart
features" capabilities on Basler IEEE 1394 cameras that are equipped with smart
features. To use smart features, you must install the Smart Features
Framework (SFF) software on your computer in addition to the BCAM 1394 driver.
Programs compiled against earlier versions of the driver must be recompiled against V1.7
to operate properly.
V1.8 - Changes were made to buffer handling, bus reset behavior, error handling
during bus transactions and in structure and enumeration naming. The BCAM viewer white
balance behavior was changed. This version of the driver works with Windows 2000 (SP3 or
SP4) or Windows XP (SP1).
This version of the driver will let you use the "smart features" capabilities on
Basler IEEE 1394 cameras that are equipped with smart features. To use smart features, you
must install the Smart Features Framework (SFF) software on your computer in addition
to the BCAM 1394 driver.
Programs compiled against earlier versions of the driver must be recompiled against V1.8
to operate properly.
V1.8 SP1 - Support was added for Windows XP SP2. A DirectShow filter was added that
allows DirectShow applications to connect directly to our cameras. Support was added for
PCs equipped with multiple processors and hyper threading. Support for memory channels
according to the IIDC V1.31 standard was added. The MS Visual Studio.NET versions of the
samples and source code can now be compiled against versions 7.0, 7.1 and 7.5 of the
Windows Template Library. The driver installation package was updated so that the newest
models of Basler IEEE 1394 cameras will be recognized and properly associated with the
driver during installation. This version of the driver works with Windows 2000 (SP3 or
SP4) or Windows XP (SP1 or SP2).
This version of the driver will let you use the "smart features" capabilities on
Basler IEEE 1394 cameras that are equipped with smart features. To use smart features, you
must install the Smart Features Framework (SFF) software on your computer in addition
to the BCAM 1394 driver.
Programs compiled against earlier versions of the driver must be recompiled against V1.8
SP1 to operate properly.
