Installing the PC2-Comp Express
PC2-Comp Express
•
Important
:
Referring to the board's user manual (in the connectors and jumpers reference
section), identify the configuration switch location. The Boot Recovery Mode jumper for the
PC2-Comp Express
is J19 (see
"
J19: Boot Recovery Mode
" on page 39
).
•
Shut down Windows and power OFF the computer.
•
Remove jumper J19 for the boot recovery mode position.
•
Power on the computer. Windows will boot normally.
•
When Windows has started, do a manual firmware update procedure to update the firmware
again (see
"
Executing the Firmware Loader from the Start Menu
" on page 11
).
•
When the update is complete, shut down Windows and power off the computer.
•
Replace the jumper on J19 (i.e. default position) and power on the computer once again.
•
Verify that the frame grabber is functioning by running a Sapera application such as
CamExpert. The Sapera application will now be able to communicate with the PC2-Comp
Express
board.
Windows Event Viewer
Windows Event Viewer (
Computer Management • System Tools • Event Viewer
) lists various
events that have taken place during the OS boot sequence. If a driver generates an error it will
normally log an entry in the event list. The Computer Management utility is available by right-clicking
My Computer
in the Explorer window (or desktop icon) and selecting
Manage
in the pop-up menu.
DALSA Device Manager Program
The DALSA Device Manager program provides a convenient method of collecting information about
the installed PC2-Comp Express. System information, such as operating system, computer CPU,
system memory, PCI configuration space, as well as PC2-Comp Express firmware information can be
written to a text file (default file name:
BoardInfo.txt
).
Execute the program using the Windows Start Menu shortcut
Start • All Programs • DALSA
• PC2-
Comp Express Device Driver • Device Manager
. If the DALSA Device Manager program does not
run, it will exit with a message that the board was not found. Since the PC2-Comp Express board must
have been in the system to install the board driver, possible reasons for an error are:
•
Board was removed
•
Board driver did not start or was terminated
•
PCI conflict after some other device was installed
