CMOS Evaluation Hardware
Quick Start Guide
Before You Begin
Confirm that all of the required components are available:
•
Evaluation Hardware and Supported Image Sensor.
The Evaluation Hardware consists of an Imager/FPGA
board and a Lens Mount kit. A list of CMOS image
sensors supported by the Evaluation Hardware can be
found at
www.onsemi.com
.
•
Sensor Studio II Software.
The most recent version can be downloaded at
www.onsemi.com
.
•
Camera Link Frame Grabber (optional).
Camera Link provides an upload speed of 256 MB/sec.
The CMOS Evaluation kit supports the Imperx
FrameLink Express. This requires either an
ExpressCard54 slot (laptop) or PCIe x1 slot (desktop).
A PCIe to EC54 adapter can be used with desktops.
•
USB.
USB2 and USB3 are supported.
•
Computer.
Windows 7 and Windows 10 64 bit, 2+ GHz processor,
8 GB RAM, USB 3.0/2.0 connection.
•
Power Supply.
12 V DC, 2 A, with 2.1 mm center positive DC power
jack.
•
Cables.
For the Imperx Camera Link Frame Grabber two SDR
to SDR cables are required. For USB 3.0, a 2 meter
USB 3.0 cable with Type A on the host end and micro
3.0 on the hardware end is included.
•
Lens.
A C/CS mount lens holder is provided with the kit. For
larger optics, an F-mount is available in the optional
Lens Mount Kit.
•
Table

top Tripod. (recommended)
Install Software
Install Sensor Studio II software by running the
appropriate “setup.exe” file. Check the boxes for installing
the USB 2 and USB 3 drivers even if you want to use
CameraLink. USB is the only interface for firmware
updates.
Install Camera Link Frame Grabber (Optional)
With the computer turned off, install the optional
FrameLink Express Frame Grabber hardware. When the
computer is turned on, the new hardware will be detected.
Install the Imperx software from the CD provided with that
hardware. Run the file “FLExDvrManager.exe”, and disable
Camera Link status check for both Camera Link channels.
Assemble Evaluation Hardware
•
Sensor, Lens Mount and Lens.
The CMOS evaluation Kit comes with a C/CS lens
mount installed and a lens cover. If an appropriate C
mount optic is not available, then the optional Lens
Mount Kit F-mount adapter should be used.
•
Plug in power and communications cables.
With the Evaluation Kit powered off, insert the Camera
Link cables into the frame grabber or the USB cable
into your PC. Insert the power plug into the receptacle
on the Imager/FPGA board. Turn on the Power.
Use DeviceManager to verify “Truesense USB3” or
“FrameLink Express” is seen by the system.
Run Sensor Studio
•
Launch Program.
Double click the Sensor Studio II desktop icon
(Figure 1) to launch the software.
Figure 1.
•
Select Plugin.
Click the plugin button (Figure 2). Then choose
the KAC12040 plugin (Figure 3). An image display
window and the control GUI will appear on the screen.
