SightLine Software Requirements  

See the 

camera configuration tables

 for specific OEM Sightline software version requirements for 

supported cameras.

 

Licensing:

 The 14 and 16-bit mode requires license for feature E High Depth + Temp. 

Superframe requirements: 

1500-OEM:  Version 2.22.06 and later for Superframe and FPGA firmware version 5 or 12. 

3000-OEM:  Version 2.22.13 and later for Superframe. (REV C) requires firmware 2.24.xx and higher. 

 

IMPORTANT:

 The Panel Plus software version should match the firmware version running on the 

board. Firmware and Panel Plus software versions are available on th

Software Download

 page. 

1.2.1

 

FPGA - 1500-OEM 

Version 5 of the FPGA driver firmware is required for the camera to operate correctly with the 1500-
OEM. Version information is located on the 

Connect

 tab under the 

Video Output

 section. See the

Safe Device Handling 

 

CAUTION:

 To prevent damage to hardware boards, disconnect all input power to OEMs and adapter boards before 

connecting or disconnecting cables including all FFC, FPC, KEL, HDMI, and round wire (Molex) cables.

 

 

CAUTION:  

To prevent damage to hardware boards, use a conductive wrist strap attached to a good earth ground. 

Before picking up an ESD sensitive electronic component, discharge built up static by touching a grounded bare 
metal surface or approved antistatic mat.
