The Piranha XL Camera
This method is not effective for CCD TDI cameras with many stages as there is insufficient
sensitivity. Area mode imaging is required. Single line cameras would be too sensitive.
However, the Piranha XL camera has the right number of rows to make this simple alignment
method practical.
Changing Output Configuration
Bit Resolution
See the section Image Format Control Category in Appendix A for GenICam features associated
with this section and how to use them
Relevant Features: Pixel Format
The Piranha XL camera can output video data as 8-bit or 12-bit format. 8-bit output allows for the
maximum specified line rate to be achieved. 12-bit data limits the maximum line rate to
approximately 2/3
rd
of the maximum specified line rate, when using a single Camera Link HS cable.
The maximum line rate can be restored if the image data is split equally across two Camera Link
HS cables.
Camera Link HS Lane Selection
See the section Image Format Control Category in Appendix A for GenICam features associated
with this section and how to use them
Relevant Features: Next CLHS Devise Configuration
Each Camera Link HS cable includes 8 lanes. One lane is used to send command data from the
frame grabber to the camera. Seven lanes are use to send camera data to the frame grabber, one
of which carries both image and command response data. The camera can also support the use of
only 4 lanes, which allows standard fiber modules to be plugged into the camera, or 1 lane which
may be useful for diagnostic purposes.
Use the ‘Next CLHS Devise Configuration’ to select the desired lane configuration. Ensure that the
acquisition is stopped when performing lane configuration selection. The frame grabber must also
have the same lane selection.
Note that this feature also controls the cable selection.
Using Two CLHS Cables
See the section Image Format Control Category in Appendix A for GenICam features associated
with this section and how to use them
Relevant Features: Next CLHS Devise Configuration
The camera has two CLHS compliant connectors. Control / Data1 is typically assigned as the master
with Data 2 connector as the slave. Use the ‘Next CLHS Devise Configuration’ to select the desired
number of cables.
Note that this feature also controls lane selection.
