7. FRAME GRABBER AND SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
7.1 Computer/Laptop System Requirements
The basic requirement is that the PCIe bus of the system must provide sufficient bandwidth
to handle video rate transfers. The amount of bandwidth required depends on the camera in-
hand. The Falcon III uses a Base Camera Link interface which can be handled with a x1
PCIe bus and PIXCI EB1, providing roughly 200MB/sec maximum bandwidth. Contact EPIX
Inc. for further information regarding minimum computer/laptop specification requirements to
run the XCAP Imaging Software.
7.2 Frame Grabber Requirements
If using a computer, it is a minimum requirement to use an PIXCI EB1 frame grabber. If
using a frame grabber from another company, the specification requirements of this frame
grabber must meet those supplied by the PIXCI EB1 model.
If using a laptop, EPIX offers base Camera Link frame grabbers for a laptop system, such as
the ECB1/ECB1-34.
