34 Chapter 3: Using multiple Matrox Solios eV-CL boards
Multiple board installation
You can install and use multiple Matrox Solios eV-CL boards in one computer.
Install each additional Matrox Solios eV-CL board as you installed the first board
(refer to
Chapter 2: Hardware installation
). Theoretically, you can have as many as
16 Matrox Solios eV-CL boards installed in your computer; however, this number
is computer-dependent.
Using MIL-Lite, you have to allocate a MIL system for each board and allocate
the resources of each MIL system. For more information, see
MsysAlloc()
in the
MIL Reference.
Simultaneous image capture from different
boards
You can simultaneously capture images from video sources attached to different
Matrox Solios eV-CL boards; however, the number of video sources from which
you can simultaneously capture images is computer-dependent.
The use of a high performance PCIe chipset is necessary to sustain PCIe transfers
to Host memory. The list of platforms that are known to be compatible with
Matrox Solios eV-CL are available on the Matrox web site, under the board’s
compatibility list.
To measure the effective, available bandwidth of the PCIe interface used by your
Matrox Solios eV-CL board, you can use the SoliosBench tool integrated in the
MILConfig utility. As a reference point, capturing from a 1K x 1K, 8-bit,
60 frames/sec video source will require a minimum bandwidth of 63 Mbytes/sec,
plus an additional bandwidth margin of approximately 20%, for a bandwidth of
75 Mbytes/sec.
