Description
The PCI-1409 is a high-performance frame grabber with the part number 186914B-01 (778200-01) designed for image acquisition and processing applications. This model falls under the category of Frame Grabbers, specifically engineered to capture high-quality images with precision and speed.
At its core, the PCI-1409 boasts a 10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), ensuring detailed image capture with a wide dynamic range. It is equipped with 16 MB of onboard memory, facilitating the processing and storage of large images or sequences of images without compromising performance.
This device features 4-Channel Image Acquisition capability, allowing it to handle multiple video sources simultaneously. It supports up to 4 nonstandard or standard video sources, providing flexibility in connecting different types of cameras for various applications.
For enhanced control and synchronization with external devices, it includes 4 external Digital I/O or External Trigger Lines and 4 Digital Outputs for Camera Control. This feature set makes it exceptionally versatile for integrated systems requiring precise timing and external device interaction.
The PCI-1409 is compatible with double-speed progressive scan cameras, and supports a range of camera standards including RS-170/NTSC, CCIR/PAL, VGA, and other progressive scan cameras. This wide compatibility ensures that users can leverage the frame grabber across various deployment scenarios without worrying about camera interoperability.
It offers an impressive dynamic range of up to 60 dB and incorporates Antichrominance Filters for NTSC and PAL color-coded signals, enhancing image quality by reducing chrominance (color) noise in captured images.
The included NI-IMAQ driver software simplifies configuration and integration, providing a robust set of tools for developing custom image acquisition and processing solutions. Additionally, it is compatible with Vision Builder for Automated Inspection and Vision Development platforms, offering powerful options for building sophisticated vision-based applications.
