Introduction

MIKROTRON GmbH

2 - 5

System Requirements

In order to use the MC128x camera you need:

•

an image processing system, e.g.: PC and operating system 
according to the requirements of the frame grabber

•

a completely installed frame grabber with device driver and 
software 

Tip: 

Read more about frame

grabbers that were tested

with MIKROTRON cameras

in the Application Note

AN0036.

•

CoaXPress cable with DIN 1.0/2.3 connector

Note

All cables, connectors and the frame grabber have to be
CoaXPress V1.1 compliant.
