Property Value

Object
The image array variant.

Remarks

The application must inspect the Safearray parameters to determine the dimensions. Note: if NumX or NumY is changed after a call to StartExposure it will have no effect on the size of this array. This property should only be used from scripts due to the extremely high memory utilization on large image arrays (26 bytes per pixel). Pixels values should be in Short, int, or Double format.

For colour or multispectral cameras, will produce an array of NumX * NumY * NumPlanes. If the application cannot handle multispectral images, it should use just the first plane.

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException	If no image data is available.
NotConnectedException	When Connected is False.
DriverException	An error occurred that is not described by one of the more specific ASCOM exceptions. Include sufficient detail in the message text to enable the issue to be accurately diagnosed by someone other than yourself.
