RuntimeFreeze Property

Applies To
Vision Sequence

Description
Defines whether to freeze the display of an image acquired during a vision sequence.

Usage

VGet  Sequence.RuntimeFreeze, var
VSet  Sequence.RuntimeFreeze, value
Sequence
Name of a sequence or string variable containing a sequence name.
var
Boolean variable that will contain the value of the property
value
Boolean value or expression for the new value of the property.

Values

  • 0 - False: Do not freeze the image. (Image display area will show live image)
  • -1 - True: Freeze the image. (Image display area will show frozen image)

Default: True

Remarks
The RuntimeFreeze property lets you choose whether to show the image acquired during a sequence, or show live video after the sequence runs.

Note that when RuntimeFreeze is “False” and live video is displayed until the next sequence runs, it can slow down vision processing, because when a sequence needs to grab an image, it must wait for the current live grab to complete. For fastest processing, use RuntimeFreeze = “False” only when necessary.
