Description
The product with the Part Number 185652B-01 is designed to interface seamlessly with cameras that support the RS422 interface, specifically the camera with the part number 777959-01. It boasts an impressive Pixel Clock Rate of 40 MHz, facilitating fast and efficient data processing. The Acquisition Rate can reach up to 80 MB/s, ensuring that high-speed image capture is smooth and uninterrupted.
This device operates at a Bit Depth of 16-Bit, which allows for a wide range of color and grayscale depth, making it suitable for applications requiring high-detail imaging. Additionally, it comes with Onboard Frame Memory, enhancing its capability to store images temporarily for processing.
With 4 External I/O Lines, which are configurable for triggers or high-speed digital I/O, this device offers flexibility in handling various input/output operations. The Camera Control Signals can be either differential-level or TTL, providing versatility in camera control. It uses a 100-pin SCSI-type connector, ensuring a reliable and secure connection to compatible devices.
The Lookup Table (LUT) is a notable feature, with a size of 64 KB x 16-bit. This can be configured for 2 x 256 KB by 8-bit LUT operations or 1 x 64 KB by 16-bit LUT, offering flexibility in image processing tasks. The device also supports Multiple-Tap Data Formatting, allowing for the reordering of data from up to two 8-bit taps, which is critical for applications requiring data from multiple sources to be synchronized and processed efficiently.
Compatibility with software is crucial for seamless operation, and this device is compatible with the NI-MAQ driver, NI Vision Builder for Automated Inspection, and the NI Vision Development Module. Despite its Obsolete Status, as announced by National Instruments, it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring that users can continue to leverage its powerful features in their applications.
