The PCIe8 DV-FOX is a fiberoptic input frame grabber board for Camera Link and AIA digital cameras. One, two or potentially four cameras can be remotely located up to 300 meters from the host computer, up to 10 Kilometers with the Extended Range option.
The PCIe8 DV-FOX occupies one 8 or 16-lane PCI express slot of the host computer.
An EDT RCX module converts the Camera Link signals from most digital cameras to fiber optic cable. Alternately, this fiber optic interface may be incorporated in the camera -- contact EDT if you are interested in incorporating the fiber optic interface into the camera.
Each camera must have its own fiber optic interface through which it can communicate with the PCIe8 DV-FOX in the host computer.
The PCIe8 DV FOX can be used as an input board for RCX C-Link (Camera Link) fiberoptic modules, as in the following block diagrams:
The above are only some of the example configurations, others are possible including directly from a camera with fiber output. See the separate RCX C-Link datasheet for more details on on the modules and possible configurations.
Most camera link cameras are supported or supportable when using an RCX C-Link module at the camera end, see the module datasheet and camera link support for details.
Requirements
System must have a PCI Express bus (8 or 16 lanes) that is not dedicated to display use only. See bandwidth requirements.
EDT provides several levels of customer support, from phone consultation to custom design of hardware or software at hourly rates. Basic support for installation and initial configuration is included at no extra charge.
To order, contact our sales department or your distributor. Ask for the PCIe8 DV-FOX plus RCX C-Link module. Ordering options include:
- Number of modules needed
- Camera Link mode and clock speed
- Range option (standard or extended-range)
- Number of fiber optic inputs for FOX board (1, 2 or 4)
It is also helpful to know which camera is being interfaced to.
