Key Features
The pylon Event Logger is an essential tool for configuring and monitoring interactions within machine vision systems. By using precise timestamps to sequentially trace individual processes and measure execution times, pEL enables accurate latency measurement, logical error detection and correction, and resolution of performance issues. It is particularly effective in identifying problems such as overflows, camera disconnections, and missed triggers, providing valuable insights when issues arise.
