# This is a summary of the IronPython scripting commands for a ToupTek ATR2600M cooled APS-C CMOS camera 
# To discover SharpCap IronPython commands, start by typing SharpCap. in the console
# As soon as you type the"." you will get a list for completion, for example "SelectedCamera".
# Click that extension once for an explanation, twice to insert it into your command. 
# Then type a "." to get a further list and continue...
# If the control doesn't exist, you will get an error, so use an "if (SharpCap.etc)" to check first
# For controls that have a value, type ".value" at the end to show the value, or set the value with " = " 
# But first you have to select a camera, either from the GUI or from the script "SharpCap.Cameras.Find"
#
