Do IMAQdx and NI GigE Vision 2.0 material support?

Hello

From my brief research, GigE Vision 2.0 has features very nice that I'm at the end which are not supported by previous GigE Vision 1.x standards:

  • Compression on the side of the camera

  • Timestamp and sync IEEE 1588 (PTP)

OR those taking? If not, are there any plans to add support in the near future?

Thank you!

Hi again,

Thanks for the extra frame.

Assuming that your only using the camera is saving JPEG images on the disk, and you are concerned about the performance of the acquisition system, I think that an IP camera might be a better choice. These cameras acquire images compressed, so you can very well save the direct-to-disk with no extra charge. This will save time and bandwidth of the network processor. The bandwidth would be nice because you could probably just run 6 cameras in a gigabit switch and connect to a port on the PXI chassis instead of several 8234 ports. This is possible because not only if bandwidth is reduced, but the IP cameras can use TCP and sharing bandwidth much more enjoyable that can cameras GigE vision. To save the raw images on the disk, you can use the IMAQdx VI "Get Image Data", which is a JPEG file that you can save directly to an IP camera.

Regarding the time stamp data, depends on the accuracy required. Since you recorded all the time after that image returned, is quite imprecise because it is not really correlate with the acquisition time. You might get a more exact time in two ways: record IMAQdx a CPU timestamp on receipt of driver that you can use (useful if the CPU is synchronized to GPS/NTP or similar) or you can use a timestamp saved in the image itself in the form of metadata (GigE Vision and IP cameras can do that). I think the Basler IP cameras can use NTP and testify to the time stamp for metadata EXIF JPEG images that you can extract. This mechanism is of course much more precise because it eliminates the delay/jitter of transmission at the time. If you have a few requirements of precision (microsec, milliseconds, seconds?), it would probably give a better idea of what your options are.

I suggest you take a look at the range of cameras from Basler IP. You can not control the parameters of the image directly in the IMAQdx driver (you must use their web interface, or write additional HTTP code), but once you have the configured device it will keep these settings.

It is likely that the cameras will be more expensive that some cheaper GigE Vision cameras can be, but I suspect that you could save enough on other system costs will in this way to make up for it. In my opinion, doing compression JPEG on-the-fly with 350 + MB/sec of camera raw data could be difficult, unless you had a tough multi-core system.

  • GigE Vision all-in-package

    Hello

    I am looking for a solution to a simple problem. I designed the camera IRLS, work GVCP, camera stream UDP packets on request from Max NOR, but these packets are not acknowledged as data and Timeout 0xBFF6901B mistake.

    Linus

    Hi Linus,

    This feature is new to 2.0, GigE Vision and not yet supported by IMAQdx. By specifying, this mode is optional on both sides and the application software is needed to activate it (SCCFGx) until the device is allowed to use this mode. As IMAQdx never allows it, the camera is required to use the transmission of standard packages.

  • XML file for GigE Vision camera

    Hello

    I'm working on a model of GigE Vision camera. It should be very simple linescan camera. I put in place the necessary set of registers GigE Vision, can communicate with the camera in MAX. The problem is that I need creata this XML file for the camera. There is this here XML file:

    http://www.EMVA.org/CMS/upload/standards/GenICam_Downloads/SFNC_Reference_Version_2_0_0_Schema_1_1.x...

    What should I do with it? My first version of the camera will have 2 functions: turn on and off I'm confused, because the model xml file has many functions, I don't really have. Should I remove them? Or leave it inside with default values? That she needs a configuration minimum XML file?

    Kind regards

    Linus

    Hi Linus,

    If you look at the GigE Vision specification, you will see that there is a minimal subset of functionality that must be present for the camera be declared compliant. That's all what IMAQdx will need for the camera works fine. All other functions in the XML file that you downloaded are part of the SFNC (features Standard Naming Convention) defines the names/behavior for common characteristics that are often found on machine vision cameras. As a general rule, cameras implement a subset of these features. You should not let any features that are not implemented in the XML because it would be just confused because they would do nothing.

  • Connection of the GigE Vision camera

    Hello

    I develop a GigE Vision camera.

    I want to connect GigE Vision Camera to NIMAX.

    When you first connect GigE Vision camera, I can see the NOR-IMAQdx list devices. ("cam0:mycamera")

    When I click on "cam0:mycamera", a the IMAQ error has occurred.

    Error message is "cannot load the XML of the camera.

    Attached file is the package that was the problem.

    MAX OR send command "Read memory" to retrieve the device XML configuration file.

    (Package no. 11, 13: address 0x200, 0 x 400 memory read command)

    GigE Vision camera send response.

    (No. 12, 14 package: XML URL first choice, second choice of URL)

    I think the number of package 12 and 14 are erroneous data, but I can't find the point of evil.

    Advice me please on this issue.

    I would be greateful to receive the sample package.

    Thank you.

    Hi hkgige,

    These questions can be better adapted to the Committee mailing list GigE Vision standard, I suppose that your company would be a member to develop a device with the GigE Vision standard.

    However, I take a look at your track of package and I don't see anything that looks obviously incorrect. One of the reasons why the software could stop after reading the two URLS, is that he thinks he has already downloaded the file previously. These are cached in a directory on your local system (usually C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQdx\Data\XML on Vista and Windows 7). Check if you have the XML file for your camera.

    The error you get usually indicates GenICam has some difficulty in parsing the XML of your camera. If you join the XML itself, I could see if this is the problem.

  • GigE vision on OR cRIO-9068

    Hello:

    We are planning a project in which we intend to use embedded vision and transformation of vision GigE cameras. Our client is interested in the cRIO-9068 embedded platform.

    The question is: is there support for GigE Vision on the cRIO-9068?

    I can't find a document that says, so I guess that no public support is granted. If this is the case, I would like to know why.  I think that the VxWorks targets do not GigE support, but this cRIO running Linux. From the outside, I think it would be possible to provide a GigE for Linux support.  The only devices that seem to favor GigE run Phar Lap ETS.

    Thanks in advance for your kind reply.

    Just to answer he question, the 9068 does not support GigE Vision. Layer MAC Ethernet embedded on the chip of architecting it uses does not meet the requirements of GigE Vision (similar to the old cRIOs VxWorks/PPC).

    The 9068 does support USB3 Vision cameras via its USB 2.0 port well and a lot of GigE Vision cameras have identical models in variants of the USB.

    Since there is no drivers, you can create your own, request one, use the Instrument i/o Assistant, or hope that someone has one and he posts here. On the creation of a help or to ask one, see the main page of the Instrument Driver Network . As long as you're familiar with the instrument and the manual, creating a driver is not so difficult.
