The PMC DV FOX is a long-range fiberoptic frame grabber that provides high-resolution image capture for Camera Link or AIA (LVDS/RS422) cameras. It supports one medium- or up to two base-mode cameras, at distances up to 10 kilometers from the host computer.
The board pairs with one or more EDT RCX C-Link or RCX adapter modules to convert data from most camera types to fiberoptic cable. Alternately, this fiberoptic interface can be incorporated in the camera.
The compact board fits in any PMC bus. Images are captured and displayed in real time, and camera speed, resolution, and number of buffers are limited only by host bandwidth and memory.
Below are some of the many possible FOX/RCX configurations.
Device drivers and SDK are included for Windows, Linux, Solaris, and MacOS. VxWorks drivers available for a per-platform support fee [more]. System must have a PMC bus, 66 MHz or faster (33 MHz will work, but at reduced data rates). See bandwidth requirements.
