Using Genie TS with Sapera API
Genie_TS_Series GigE Vision Camera
Windows Embedded 7 Installation
Windows Embedded 7 is not officially supported by Teledyne DALSA due to the number of possible
configurations. However, Sapera LT and other Teledyne DALSA products should function properly
on the Windows Embedded 7 platform provided that the required components are installed.
Teledyne DALSA provides answer files (.xml) for use during Windows Embedded 7 installation that
install all necessary components for running Sapera LT 32-bit or 64-bit versions (SDK or Runtime),
Sapera Processing 32-bit or 64-bit versions (SDK or Runtime), Teledyne DALSA framegrabbers or
Genie GigE Vision devices.
For each platform (32 or 64-bit), the answer file is provided:
SaperaGenie.xml: Configuration for Sapera LT, Sapera Processing and Teledyne DALSA
Genie devices
These files are located in the following directories:
<Install Directory>\Sapera\Install\Win7_Embedded\Win32
<Install Directory>\Sapera\Install\Win7_Embedded\Win64
The OS footprint for these configurations is less than 1 GB. Alternatively, the Windows Thin Client
configuration template provided by Microsoft in the Windows Embedded 7 installation also provides
the necessary dependencies for Sapera LT, Teledyne DALSA framegrabbers and Genie devices
(with an OS footprint of approximately 1.5 GB).
If you are installing other applications on the Windows Embedded 7 platform, it is recommended
that you verify which components are required, and if necessary, create a corresponding Answer
File.
For more information on performing dependency analysis to enable your application on Windows
Embedded 7, refer to the Microsoft Windows Embedded 7 documentation.
