Now enter 8192 in the Value Data text box: Click on OK and you are done for setting the packet size. You’ve told Visionscape to use jumbo packets but the camera is still going to be sending data at the same rate – as fast as possible. Setting the Inter-Packet Delay There is no reason to have a camera capable of sending data at 90 frames per second if your particular application only runs at 30 frames per second. It makes a lot more sense (and puts a lot less stress on the PC) to slow the camera down to the point where it is still fast enough to run faster than the inspection requirements but not much faster.
Let’s give the application 10% headroom and say that for our 30 frames per second application we feel safe with the camera running at 33 frames per second. In other words, we need to slow down the camera to make sure that the PC can handle the throughput. This is not an issue on PCs with dedicated PCIe x16 graphics cards but it most certainly is on slower devices.
