BlueCougar-S has jerky image with lines across

We have bought camera to try for Vision Applications: BlueCougar-S made by matrix-vision.de.

In description it says that it is compliant with GigE vision and Genicam.

When we have tried to run it in MAX we have found that the picture is looking very strange it has lines across image all over the picture.

It was working fine in its own software but when it started in MAX the image is filled with some strange lines and after exit from MAX in its own software it stays the same(with lines). Only rebooting camera helps.

We are using standart Gigabit Ethernet network card.

Can somebody explain what is the reason of this behaviour?

I could later post some screenshots.

Posting screen shot will help. I am getting a feeling that Max is operating in a different setting compared to te software that comes with the camera.Can you check the settings of max?

I do not think that it is because it has different settings for camera in MAX than in its own software.

When you run it in its own software and after that in MAX it passes most or all of the settings like exposure gain etc.

Thanks,

I think we found what was causing it: it is the packet size if it is 8000Bytes it is Jerky if it is 7000Bytes it works OK if it is 7500Bytes it Jerky again(but with the less number of lines).

IS it because of the packet sizes? or ODD or even frame capture?
