Rad-icon 1520 Detector

Teledyne DALSA

Software installation

Operating Systems Support

The current released GigE Vision framework supports up to Windows 10.

For Linux the Teledyne DALSA GigE Vision Application Programmers Interface (API) for
Linux is available.

For additional support please contact our support team for the software and the latest
status.

Obtain software

CD
Check the CD that shipped with your detector for installation files for CamExpert, the
GigE driver and/or the ShadoCam software. To obtain the latest versions, or software for
a newer operation system, it may be necessary to go to the Teledyne DALSA website for
the latest updates.

Website
Visit the Teledyne DALSA website to download the latest free version of the Sapera LT
SDK, including the CamExpert image viewer:

http://www.teledynedalsa.com/imaging/products/software/sapera/lt/download/

The download is free after filling out the on-line registration form. Make sure to select
“Full SDK” as your download option.

Sapera LT and CamExpert Installation

A link to download the software will be emailed to you after submitting the application.
Complete the download process and run the installation file (e.g.
“SaperaLT80xSDKSetup.exe”).
CamExpert is an image viewer designed to evaluate your detector. The Sapera SDK is a
set of development tools and documentation for creating your own software for
interfacing to the product. Please download the appropriate materials and follow the
instructions that are part of that download.
The Sapera SDK installation also contains a large number of helpful example projects to
help you get started with integration the detector into your own application software. For
additional examples specific to the Rad-icon 1520 detector please contact our support
team at the contact info listed on page 2 of this manual.
