Software trigger for GIGE camera #128

Is there a particular setting to set the trigger based on software?

I have gone through the cfg file provided with the ROS package. But I am not sure which setting is for the software delay or if it can be implemented.

Pointgrey says that asynchronous trigger can be set using software "All cameras that implement a software asynchronous trigger can be triggered via the SOFTWARE_TRIGGER register 0x62C".

Is this possible with the ros package?

Thanks!

@tonybaltovski I had the same need and updated the code to add software trigger support. What's the proper way of sending a PR for this?

@mjavault the way you did it is proper. The maintainer will review it when they get a chance.
