Hi all,

We're trying to set up a  Baumer TXG13 monochrome CCD camera using aravisGigE. EPICS connects successfully with the camera and we can read and set the parameters. When setting AcquisitionStart=1 the ArrayCounter starts increasing (but not the FrameCounter). With tcpdump we see also the image data is transmitted and we also see higher or lower values with or without lens cover and also increasing numbers with the test image enabled. Unfortunately we never where able to retrieve the image data from NDArray, ArrayData always delivers an array filled with 0s. We are not sure now if the problem is related with the camera configuration or with NDArray. Is it normal that the FrameCounter remains 0? In case the camera is properly configured, we will be missing some configuration of NDArray. We tried EnableCallbacks=1 and also tried setting the array dimensions according to the resolution 1392x1040, Mono8. We might be missing something very basic, any suggestions and example configur!
 ations are warmly welcome.

Regards,
Urs
