Frame Rate Control

The speed of the camera is measured in fps (frames per second). The value means the
number of frames (images) given by the camera per second. In the SMX-M8X Camera
Software
the option of controlling the current number of frames per second is called
Frame Rate Control.

You can see the frame rate value in the right corner of the status bar in the main window
of the SMX-M8X Camera Application.

To open the Frame Rate Control window, click the Frame Rate… button in the Device
Settings
window. The Frame Rate Control window will open (

see Figure 7-3 Frame Rate

Control window

).

The Set Default button sets the default value of frame rate for the camera with current
settings. The default value is flashed in every camera and is applying automatically
when the camera's settings are changed.

Note:

The Set Maximum button sets the maximal possible value of frame rate for the camera

1.

2.

3.

Frame Rate Control window. Check it when running video: the frame rate value will be

Note:

The real frame rate value may vary in the range of 2-3 steps and even lower if you use a low-speed computer

To restore the maximal or default value of frame rate, do the following:
