Software reboot for VC20xx, VC4xxx and VCSBC4xxx Smart Cameras
Is there a possibility to reset VC Smart Cameras (TI series) via software?
This is dependant from the version of the operating system.
With VCRT < 5.23:
The only way to software-reset VC20xx and VC4xxx cameras is to try to execute a file that doesn't exist or a non-executable file. Just use
exec("anything");
in your program, an error occurs and the camera reboots.
With VCRT > 5.23:
Since VCRT 5.23, a reset function is included in the operating system. Simply use
reset();
and your camera will do a software-reboot.
