Using Fiber Modules
The Piranha XL camera is capable of supporting one or two “CX4 Active Optical” fiber modules,
which can have cable lengths up to 300 meters. The fiber module plugs directly into the camera
connectors, which provide both communication and power to the module. CX4 fiber modules
support four receiver lines, which results in only four image data lanes with one also carrying
command response data and being available from the camera to the frame grabber. CX4 also has
four transmit lines. One of which is used for the command channel from the frame grabber to the
camera. This results in reduced image data bandwidth when using fiber modules. See section
Camera Link HS for line rate performance with and without fiber modules.
Note that CX4 fiber modules must have jack screws to secure the module to the camera.
Saving & Restoring Camera Setup Configurations
See the section Camera Information Category in Appendix A for GenICam features associated with
this section and how to use them
Relevant Features: Power-up Configuration Selector, UserSet1 thru UserSet8, User Set Selector,
Power-on User Set, Current User Set
An inspection system may require several different illumination, resolution, and responsivity
configurations in order to cover the different types of inspection it is expected to perform. The
Piranha XL camera includes 8 user sets where camera setup information can be saved to and
restored from—either at power up, or dynamically during inspection. The camera’s active settings
can be derived from one of four settings:
1.
Set by GenICam command from host.
2.
User setting.
3.
Factory setting (read-only).
4.
Default setting.
The settings active during the current operation can be saved (and thereby become the user
setting) using the user set save parameter.
A previously saved user setting (User Set 1 to 8) or the factory settings can be restored using the
user set selector and user set load parameters.
Either the factory setting or one of the user settings can be saved as the default setting, by
selecting the set in the user set default selector. The set selected automatically saves as the default
setting and is the set that is loaded and that becomes active when the camera is reset or powered
up.
The relationship between these four settings is illustrated in Figure 11. Relationship between the
Camera Settings:
