Buffer Management

The CWIMAQ control uses the CWIMAQImage object in a CWIMAQImage collection as the image buffer when performing an acquisition. You can access this collection using the Images property on the CWIMAQ control. Set the count property of the collection to the number of buffers that your application requires.

You also can set the number of buffers during design time by setting the value of Image Count on the Acquisition property page for the CWIMAQ control. When you start the acquisition, the CWIMAQ control automatically manages the image type and the size of the images in the collection.
