Install & Configure Frame Grabber & Software
Because of the high bandwidth of these cameras, a compatible Teledyne DALSA frame grabber
(Xtium2-CLHS PX8 (OR-A8S0-PX870)), or equivalent, is recommended. The frame grabber
requirements for the 8K and 16K camera differ. Follow th
e manufacturer’s installation instructions.

A GenICam compliant XML device description file is embedded with the camera firmware. It allows
GenICam
compliant applications to recognize the camera’s capabilities
, once connected.
Installing Sapera LT gives you access to the CamExpert GUI, a GenICam compliant application.
Using Sapera CamExpert
CamExpert is the camera interfacing tool supported by the Sapera library. When used with the
camera, CamExpert allows a user to test all camera operating modes. In addition, CamExpert can
be used to save the camera’s user setting
s configurations to the camera or to save multiple
configurations as individual camera parameter files on the host system (
*.ccf
).
CamExpert can also be used to upgrade the camera’s software.
An important component of CamExpert is its live acquisition display window. This window allows
verification of timing or control parameters in real-time, without need for a separate acquisition
program.
The central section of CamExpert provides access to the camera features and parameters.
Note:
The availability of features depends on the CamExpert user setting. Not all
features are available to all users. The examples shown are for illustrative
purposes and may not entirely reflect the features and parameters available from
the camera model used in your application.
