For automatic device detection you can use

```auto
[SYSTEM]
CreateAutoIni=1

After loading the driver you can query the number of devices via `CS2GetNumPorts`. But for this you need to be able to load the GenICam.vin. But be careful if you are automatically discovering devices: the _GenICam.vin_ will detect GigE Vision cameras twice on _Windows_ operating systems:
