PtpStatus node

• Access mode: Read Only
• Node type: Enumeration
• Example values:
  • Disabled: PTPMode is disabled.
  • Listening: PTPMode is enabled in the camera but doesn't have a lock on any incoming PTP clock.
  • Calibrating: PTP clock has been found and rate calibration is being performed if needed.
  • Slave: PTP clock has been acquired and the camera now has a valid and reliable PTP clock.

You can use the eSDK API functions to get the node’s current value.
