The system requirements for IPC systems are similar to those for desktop PC systems; for reasons of
the 'tougher' use conditions, more exclusive components may occasionally have to be chosen. For
configuring an IPC system, just contact a systems house of your choice.
With the exception of the real-time recording of large image data streams (e.g. AVI captures in full
frame and at full frame rate), normal operation of the camera will be basically possible also with a
minimum host system configuration, however, some difficulties might occur.
In view of the numerous existing PC/IPC system configurations it is impossible to guarantee that the
full scope of camera system functions can be used in every configuration. In any case, a sound basis
of a successful start-up and trouble-free operation is a minimally equipped host system (only the
graphics and framegrabber cards are installed) that meets the above-mentioned requirements and has
a newly installed operating system.
Installation of the CameraLink
™
PC plug-in card MATRIX Vision MVtitan-CL
The type MVtitan-CL CameraLink
™
PC plug-in
card is a universally applicable and powerful
framegrabbing card for any application. Its
main components are an integral image
processor (TM1300), a large memory for the
software and data (8MB standard, optional:
<=32MB), and two plug connectors for two
base and one medium CameraLink
™
ports.
Please consult the manufacturer's manual
when installing the PC plug-in card.
Note: You need to have administrator
rights for the respective PC if you want to
install hardware or software components!
