Support of Two Base or Lite Camera Link® Configuration Cameras |
|
|
Monochrome, Bayer CFA, and color RGB progressive-scan cameras supported |
|
Full pixel clock range: from 20 MHz up to 85 MHz |
|
Serial control of Camera Link cameras: |
|
The Grablink series supports the Camera Link serial communication line. The application software can use the Camera Link API functions to control the camera. Alternatively, the serial line can be configured as an additional PC COM port ensuring interoperability with existing camera control software. |
|
PoCL SafePower compliant |
|
Compatible with PoCL Lite cameras to interface the smallest and lightest Camera Link cameras on the market |
|

On-Board Pre-Processing |
|
|
3 Look-up table (LUT) operators |
|
- |
Monochrome operation with selectable output bit depth: 8 bits, 10 bits, 12 bits or 16 bits |
|
- |
RGB and Bayer color operations with output bit depth: 3 x 8 bits |
|
Bayer CFA decoder computes the R, G and B components of the image |
|
Pixel formatting in the following formats: |
|
- |
Monochrome formats: Y8, Y10, Y12, Y14 and Y16 |
|
- |
Bayer CFA formats: BAYER8, BAYER10, BAYER12, BAYER14 and BAYER16 |
|
- |
Three packed RGB components format: RGB24 |
|
- |
Three planar RGB components formats: RGB24PL, RGB30PL, RGB36PL, RGB42PL and RGB48PL |
|
- |
Four packed RGB plus alpha components format: RGB32 and ARGB32 |
|
Image reconstruction: tap re-ordering, H/V flipping |
|
High-performance DMA transfers into user allocated memory with 64-bit addressing capability and image cropping capability |
|
20 digital I/O Lines Compatible with a Wide Range of Sensors and Encoders |
|
|
It forms two rich sets of I/O lines with, per camera: |
|
- |
2 high-speed differential RS-422 inputs |
|
- |
4 individually-isolated wide-voltage-range inputs |
|
- |
4 individually-isolated contact outputs |
|
Moreover, +5V and +12V power outputs with electronic fuse protection are provided. |
|
The set of I/O lines and the power output are available from an I/O connector on the bracket. |
|
These I/O lines can be used as general-purpose I/O lines. They also have specific usages as trigger, strobe or quadrature encoder input lines. |
