Camera Methods |
The Camera type exposes the following members.
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | AbortExposure |
Aborts the current exposure, if any, and returns the camera to Idle state.
|
| Action | Invokes the specified device-specific custom action. (Inherited from AscomDriver.) |
 | Choose |
The Choose() method returns the DriverID of the selected driver.
Choose() allows you to optionally pass the DriverID of a "current" driver,
and the corresponding camera type is pre-selected in the Chooser///s list.
In this case, the OK button starts out enabled (lit-up); the assumption is that the pre-selected driver has already been configured.
