down the connection.<br />

In general, the FlyCapture API manages the heartbeat at a low level; however the following two features are<br />

controllable: Heartbeat Timeout and Heartbeat Disable.<br />

Heartbeat Timeout<br />

Heartbeat timeout is the time, in milliseconds, that the camera will wait between resets from the application.<br />

Heartbeat timeout can be set between 500 ms and 10 seconds. The default setting is 3000 ms (3 seconds). If there is<br />

no communication between the camera and the application for longer than the timeout value, the connection is shut<br />

down.<br />

Heartbeat timeout can be controlled using the GevHeartbeatTimeout GenICam feature (page 65) or the GigE<br />

Vision bootstrap registers (page 74) . The FlyCapture SDK also supports configuring heartbeat timeout. For more<br />

information, consult the FlyCapture SDK Help.<br />

Heartbeat Disable<br />

The heartbeat is enabled by default. Heartbeat disable allows the heartbeat function in the camera to be disabled.<br />

The heartbeat can be disabled using the GevGVCPHeartbeatDisable GenICam feature (page 65) or the GigE<br />

Vision bootstrap registers (page 74) . The FlyCapture SDK also supports configuring the heartbeat. For more<br />

information, consult the FlyCapture SDK Help.<br />
