GigE Network Adapter Overview
Calibir connects to a computer’s Gigabit Network Adapter (or NIC, for Network Interface
Card). If the computer is already connected to a network, the computer requires a second
network adapter, either onboard or an additional PCIe NIC adapter.
In general automatic IP configuration assignment (LLA/DHCP) is sufficient for most
Calibir GigE installations. Please refer to the Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging
Package manual for information on the Teledyne DALSA Network Configuration tool
and network optimization for GigE Vision cameras and devices.
PAUSE Frame Support
The Calibir supports the Gigabit Ethernet PAUSE Frame feature as per IEEE 802.3x.
PAUSE Frame is the Ethernet flow control mechanism to manage network traffic within
an Ethernet switch when multiple cameras are simultaneously used. This requires that
the flow control option in the NIC property settings and the Ethernet switch settings must
be enabled. Refer to the Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging manual.
Computer Requirements for Calibir GXM640
The following information is a guide to computer and networking equipment required to
support the Calibir GXM640 camera at maximum performance. The Calibir camera series
complies with the current IPv4 Internet Protocol, therefore current Gigabit Ethernet
(GigE) equipment should provide trouble free performance.
Host PC System
Operating Systems:
Windows 7, 8.0, 8.1, 10 (either 32-bit or 64-bit for all) are supported.
Teledyne DALSA GigE-V Framework
; for supported kernels and
platforms refer to the GigE-V Framework documentation.
Network Adapters For GigE Camera Version
GigE network adapter (either add on card or on motherboard). The Intel PRO/1000
MT adapter is an example of a high performance NIC. Typically a system will need
an Ethernet GigE adapter to supplement the single NIC on the motherboard.
PCI Express adapters will outperform PCI adapters.
Laptop Information for GigE Camera Version
Older laptop computers with built in GigE network adapters may still not be able
to stream full frame rates from Calibir. Thorough testing is required with any
laptop computer to determine the maximum frame rate possible (refer to the
Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging Package user's manual).
