A3-4 PCO GigE Calibration Tool
Use this tool each time you connect a PCO camera to another NIC!
The PCO GigE Calibration Tool is part of the PCO software package and is
started automatically during the PCO GigE Driver installation or can be
opened by double-click on .
Start->Programs->Digital Camera Tools->pco.gige->Calib Tool
The purpose of this software is
•
to set network parameter (Packet-Delay-Time, Max-Speed-Mode),
•
to change the persistent IP of the camera (see chapter 1.1),
•
to find out which PCO GigE cameras are currently online,
•
to check, if the network is configured correctly.
How does it work?
First of all the camera is set to default. After that images of the PCO camera
are requested with a delay of 80µs between each UDP image packet. If the
image could be transferred (no lost packets), the delay is decreased and
again images are requested. This procedure will be repeated until a packet-
delay is found at which images can be transferred without loosing packets
or until the delay value is 0µs. If the image transfer succeeded at a delay of
0 µs, this transfer will be repeated at “Max-Speed-Modus”. If the image
transfer is successful, “Max-Speed-Modus” will be activated.
After the camera was successfully tested a respective message appears
and you are asked to quit the program.
If the PCO GigE Calibration Tool is opened it is connected to each detected
camera and will not allow any other program to open them.

Configuration Parameter
These parameters are necessary to set up the communication between
PCO GigE Cameras and a computer. It is recommended to always use the
“PCO GigE Calibration Tool” to set the GigE Configuration Parameters. If
the configuration succeeded, the parameters are saved to the windows
registry. If the configuration fails or the “PCO GigE Calibration Tool” is not
