10 How to setup a GigE Vision camera Example

11 Gigabit Ethernet camera setup enhanced cable lengths up to 100 meters high bandwidth of up 100 MB/s cost-effective cables and components

12 Computer for acquisition and processing Minimum Requirements Operating System: Windows XP Windows 2000 Windows Vista (in preparation) 64-Bit drivers (in preparation) Hardware: PCI-Bus: ~ 100MB/s data rate PCI-Express Bus: ~ 250 MB/s data rate

13 Single port GigE network interface cards One port for one Gigabit Ethernet connection Can also be a Gigabit Ethernet port on motherboard Cards are available for PCI, PCI-X, PCI-Express Non-Intel cards cost about 10 Intel cards for use with performance driver are available for Single port cards are easy to integrate and cost-effective

14 Choosing Cables Cat5 old standard For (Gigabit-) Ethernet CAT5, CAT6 and CAT7 cables are used. Most of these cables are well known from consumer electronics and PC networking. - Cat5 is the most common cable category in the field - Suitable for all kinds of networks structures Cat5e old standard - Cat5e is a more detailed version of CAT5 (nearly all new installations now Cat5e) - Developed for longer cable lengths with 100 Base-T Cat6/7 - Developed for high speed multimedia, data and voice networks - Special design for Gigabit Ethernet

15 Choosing Cables EMI U/UTP (Unscreened Unshielded Twisted Pair) - Standard cable - lowest shielding class (no shielding) - recommended cable lengths: max. 10 meters S/UTP (Screened Unshielded Twisted Pair) - Additional copper netting inside the cable - medium shielding class - recommended cable lengths for more than 10 meters S/STP (Screened Shielded Twisted Pair) - Besides copper netting additional metal layers are in the cable - used in critical areas where influences have to be suspected - recommended to use it for distances higher 25 meters

16 Advances in Cabling High flex cables have been introduced A (de facto) screw mount standard has settled Basler scout and pioneer will be equipped with screw mount option beginning of 2008 Basler runner will be equipped with screw mount option initially

19 Question: CPU-Load GigE drivers create CPU-Load due to missing DMA A performance driver typically limits CPU-Load Intel Chipset % VGA, 60 fps % 5 % ~ 20 MB/S No Name Chipset % % VGA, 210 fps Intel Chipset % % 10 % ~ 70 MB/s No Name Chipset % Filter Driver Performance Driver Target-Line Pentium III 1 GB Memory

20 Question: Cycle Time Software Trigger takes double time with GigE Hardware Trigger similar Image to Memory is comparable Software Trigger sca640-70gm µs sca640-70fm µs Hardware Trigger sca640-70gm sca640-70fm 32 µs 32 µs Readout to Memory sca640-70gm sca640-70fm ms ms

21 Network vs. One-to-One connection What stays the same: Computer requirements Cable selection Driver selection What is different: Additional Hardware (e.g. switch) Management of cameras and devices

22 Multi-Camera Applications Active network componets Switch GigE allows the usage of switches Multiple connections are possible Ideal setup for multiple cameras Save PCI-Slots Multiport GigE network cards Network cards can handle 4 cameras Multiple connections are possible No bus sharing like IEEE1394 Ideal setup to replace analog cameras

31 4 camera setups in comparison II Direct comparison Non-Simultaneous Grab Analog, 4 cams (non simultaneous grab) GigE, 4 cams (non simultaneous grab), Switch Price Comment Digital and analog solution cost about the same price. The digital solutions allow more flexibility because more cameras (up to 16) can be used without further costs. nearlysameprice Betterperformanceratio Simultaneous Grab Analog, 4 cams (non simultaneous grab) GigE, 4 cams (simultaneous grab), network card GigE Vision solution has a cost advantage of 5%. All other advantages of the GigE Vision technology (cable lengths etc.) are Betterprice performanceratio available for the customer with that solution.

32 Conclusions GigE Vision has made its way to Machine Vision Analog solutions can be replaced Medium Camera Link solutions can be replaced Even standard Line Scan solutions can be replaced GigE Vision standardizes logical layer GigE Vision allows interchangeability Screw-Lock connectors and cables available CPU-Load can be calculated GigE Vision cameras have found thousands of friends See you on Vision 2008!
