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

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 Shad-o-Scan 3001/4501 detector please contact our
support team at the contact info listed on page 2 of this manual.

GigE Vision framework for Sapera LT installation

The GigE Vision framework installs the GigE Vision Module for Sapera and includes the
Network Imaging package which is required to access a GigE Vision detector.

Refer to the “GigE Vision Module for Sapera” user manual and “Network Imaging

Mo

dule for Sapera LT” user manual which are included in the installation.
