Davis346 configuration with dv-processing in Python.

[Yuhan Bao]

Hi,

I am developing with Davis346 and Python dv-processing1.7, and I am curious how I can adjust the configuration of the davis camera via the Python API of dv-processing, such as the "packet container interval" property  and the "On /off bn" properties that can be adjusted in dv-gui.

I noticed that there are "deviceConfigSet“” and "deviceConfigGet" functions under the CameraCapture class, but the exact values of their parameters "moduleAddress" and "parameterAddress "are not clear. Is it possible to provide a table of the corresponding addresses of the adjustable parameters in dv-gui?

Best,

Yuhan.

Correct, these functions are meant to configure any device settings, the module and parameter address are the ones from libcaer, so you can look up the codes here:

https://gitlab.com/inivation/dv/libcaer/-/blob/master/include/libcaer/devices/davis.h

For the packet container interval, as you would do:

libcaerHandle.configSet(CAER_HOST_CONFIG_PACKETS, CAER_HOST_CONFIG_PACKETS_MAX_CONTAINER_INTERVAL, 1000);

In dv-processing that becomes:

deviceHandle.deviceConfigSet(CAER_HOST_CONFIG_PACKETS, CAER_HOST_CONFIG_PACKETS_MAX_CONTAINER_INTERVAL, 1000);

In the C++ code. In the Python code the libcaer defines are not imported, so you'll have to look up the codes in the libcaer C header files and just use the integers directly, like:

pythonDeviceHandle.deviceConfigSet(-3, 1, 1000)

Hope this helps, have a nice day!
