[Reset] | Reset the sensor to its power-on state. Activated by the Reset button the DevWare toolbar. |
[Demo Initialization] | The recommended register settings for the sensor in the demo environment. Activated by the Init button on the DevWare toolbar. |
[DevWare Initialization] | Settings to initialize DevWare and the sensor for the demo environment. If this preset doesn't exist, Demo Initialization is used. |
[SensorDemo Initialization] | Settings to initialize SensorDemo (DevWare /DEMO) and the sensor. If this preset doesn't exist, SensorDemo will fall back to DevWare Initialization or Demo Initialization. |
[Monochrome Initialization] | Recommended register settings to use for the monochrome version of the sensor. |
| [Initialize] | Create a file called prescan.ini and put it in the apps_data directory of the installation directory. In the file have a preset called [Initialize]. Note: There aren't separate initialize preset names per base board type, but it's possible to distinguish between, for example, Demo3 and 3X, with an IF_SERIAL command in the [Initialize] preset. |
| [Startup Wizard] | DevWare will run that instead of the Startup Wizard dialog. Doing that is unconditional, though. There is no way to run Startup Wizard from ini script. |
[Viewfinder ON] | Switch into Preview mode. Activated by the Preview button on the DevWare toolbar. |
[Viewfinder OFF] | Switch out of Preview mode. Activated by the Preview button on the DevWare toolbar. |
[Video Capture ON] | Switch into Video Capture mode. Activated by the Record button on the DevWare toolbar unless Screen capture only (no register changes) is selected on Sensor Control, Video Capture dialog. |
[Video Capture OFF] | Switch out of Video Capture mode. Activated when video capture ends, unless Screen capture only (no register changes) is selected on Sensor Control, Video Capture dialog. |
[Color Processing ON] | Enable software color processing. Activated by the Auto button on the DevWare toolbar. |
[Color Processing OFF] | Disable software color processing. Activated by the Auto button on the DevWare toolbar. |
[Camera 1] | Select primary sensor on a two-sensor system. |
[Camera 2] | Select secondary sensor on a two-sensor system. |
[Pre Still Capture] | Activated before a still image capture, unless Current Image is selected on Sensor Control, Still Capture dialog. |
[Post Still Capture] | Activated after a still image capture, unless Current Image is selected on Sensor Control, Still Capture dialog. |
[Data Types] | Define data types for sensor registers and bitfields. Activated at DevWare startup. Deprecated since the .xsdat files contain this information now. |
| [Register Tabs] | Define the tabs, groups, and controls for the optional "Scripts" version of the Register Dialog. |
| [Python:] | Python code that will be executed automatically when the file is opened in a Presets dialog in DevWare. This is a good place to put import statements, function def statements and any other definitions that may be used by other presets in the file. |
| [Python: Unload] | Python code that will be executed automatically when the Presets dialog is closed (including when DevWare exits). |

...
Defines the icon image and button state for a User Toolbar button in DevWare. Only takes effect if the preset name begins with “Toolbar:” or “Toolbar2:”. If the <icon name> contains a dot “.” character, it's interpreted as a filename with a path relative to the ini file. The icon file can be a .ico or a .bmp (24x24 pixels, 32-bpp, R-G-B-alpha) file. Example: Load icon from file zoom.ico. Otherwise the name specifies a built-in icon image. The built-in images are different colored shapes. Specify the shape and color. The shapes are circle, square, triangle and star. The colors are black, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, gray and white. Example: Use a built-in icon image. |
