The starting point is the help file. There is a section with the title: "Setting IMAQ Device and Camera Properties". That section provide some explanations about the properties and options to configure your IMAQ cameras.
You can obtain more information by visiting the Developer Zone at the NI website. Look for the Vision section at the Resource Library. The exact address is:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/devzone.nsf/webproducts/7d6146d8c67a832e862567f1006c29ee?opendocument
You will find explanations, tutorials and examples about different topics in vision, including configuration descriptions.
Finally, a full understanding of some properties requires knowledge about vision and image processing. A good book about Image Processing in general should be of benefit.
