Roper PXD1000 manual Relationship to various pins

Page 13

i.Pulse Width: in number of clocks

ii.Output polarity: Low or High true

iii.Strobe#l wire: Output the HDrive signal to strobe1 and strobe1 ++1 wires in addition to the HDrive wire

iv.Clocks from Data to Hsync: number of clocks from last pixel on the line to following horizontal sync.

v.For cameras that use Vertical Drive, the frame grabber generates a V drive pulse and the camera synchronizes to it. The camera then generates an FDV (Frame Data Valid) signal and sends it back to the frame grabber. The frame grabber uses the FDV to detect the starting line of each frame from the camera.

Pulse Width: in number of clocks

Output polarity: Low or High true

Strobe#O wire: Output the VDrive signal to strobe#O and strobe#O++l wires in addition to the VDrive wire

Clocks from Data to V sync: number of lines from last line to fol- lowing vertical sync.

b)If your camera is an interlaced camera, enter the appropriate information under Interlace Control.

Starting Field: either O or 1

First Line Length: Length of the first line on field 0 and field 1. Both fields are usually set to the width of the image size.

Vdrive offset: Number of pixel clocks after the edge of the Hdrive that

Vdrive goes active.

c)If your camera requires a clock from the PXDl000 set the Clocks per Pixel. Most cameras require one clock per pixel, but some require two. Refer to your camera manual for the correct setting.

d)Set the Strobe/Drive Signal. This is the type of output signals generated by the frame grabber (either RS422 or TTL), for HDrive, VDrive, strobeO, and strobel.

Relationship to various pins

Camera Control 0,1,2 general purpose control pins can be used to control camera modes. For example the Dalsa CA-D7 camera has features, which cause the camera to output only half the resolution but at faster frame rate. The control pin can be used to control this feature on this camera. (Refer to page 43 of the user guide).

Troubleshooting tips and hints when using the PXD Configuration Application.

Shape edges or ring around the images:

Shape edges or rings around the image on the screen may indicate that the pixel clock lines need to be swapped. Swap the lines in the cable to the pixel clock CAMCLK(-) - pin 65 & CAMCLK(+) - pin 15 and see if the problem goes away.
