2-2 Getting Started Introduction http://www.leutron.com LEUTRON VISION

3. INTRODUCTION PentiCam is an ultra compact, mobile image processing system for industrial and machine vision, based on standard PC technology and Leutron's PicPort® framegrabbers. This innovative approach provides a single step to a final solution without the requirement for a development system.

3.1. PRODUCT OVERVIEW PentiCam is a complete PC integrated with a PicPort® frame grabber and is based on a combination of notebook PC technology and PMC-size modules. It offers the ultimate integrated vision system by providing image capture from standard and non-standard cameras, Pentium II processing power, an interface to all common PC peripherals, Ethernet link for networking and general purpose I/O. A built-in DC/DC converter board means the PentiCam requires only a single 24 Volt DC external power supply. It has 1 optional free PMC slot and as such can be extended with many 3rd party PMC modules such as I/O, CANbus, Profibus, etc or even a second PicPort® frame grabber. As the PentiCam is based on PC architecture it supports standard operating systems such as Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows 95/98, so the user is not restricted to using dedicated developing tools, often found with common «smart camera» devices. This also eliminates the need for difference between the development system and the target system - just simply connect keyboard, mouse and monitor and start working. Not only does this provide a big advantage during application development but also greatly reduces the risk associated with «field upgrades». Existing users of Leutron's PicPort® framegrabbers can take full advantage of PentiCam simply by transferring their applications for immediate use. PentiCam is provided in several basic configurations. The first option includes just the PC and the framegrabber, without built-in camera (dimensions of this model are 91×91×162 mm). The second includes a standard vision camera plus standard lens. Both of them may be further extended with a second framegrabber. All the versions may be configured by selecting between PicPort®-Mono, PicPort®-Stereo or PicPort®-Color framegrabbers, also by choosing the processor, memory size and hard disk capacity. In case of PentiCam with built-in camera, the customer can also select particular camera type and lens. Quantity OEMs can purchase the board set only.

4.1.1. PENTICAM PCI ARCHITECTURE The PentiCam is based on standard 32-bit PCI bus (3.3 V, rev. 2.1) with PMC form factor. To achieve the most possible compact design, PentiCam uses a specific PMC architecture. The main board with the Pentium Mobile Module and the chipset is realized as a PMC host. The PicPort® PMC or other PMC modules are stacked one on top of the other. Besides the standard JN1/PN1 and JN2/PN2 connectors (32- bit PCI interface), an additional JN4/PN4 connector is used (see Figure 4.1.3 and Figure 4.1.4). Its pin assignment is Leutron specific and includes transmission of the power supply, IDE interface and COM2 interface. This implies some additional requirements for the PMC module design (with exception of the top board). The most important differences are listed in chapter 4.5.1. Existing PMC modules may be added to PentiCam as extension boards (please contact Leutron Vision for help).

USB connector Type A 10. 100-pin connector for plugging the panel into the main board 4.2.2. PENTIUM II MOBILE MODULE The PentiCam system is built around Intel's compact, high-performance Pentium II Mobile Module MMC-2. Its main constituents are the Intel Pentium II processor (266 MHz/512 kB cache or 333 MHz/256 kB on-die cache) and the Intel 82443BX Northbridge (see chapter 4.2.3). An on-board voltage regulator converts and isolates the system DC voltage to the processor’s core and I/O voltage with efficiency above 80%. The system management bus (SMbus) is supported and allows temperature sensing. The thermal transfer plate on top of the 82433BX Northbridge and the CPU provides heat dissipation and a thermal attach point for the PentiCam case. The mobile module is plugged to the main board using a 400-pin Ball Grid Array (BGA) connector with a board to board distance of 8 mm. 4.2.3. CHIPSET Intel 440BX AGPset consists of two chips: 824473BX Host Bridge Controller (BX), also known as Northbridge, and 82371EB PCI-ISA-IDE Accelerator (PIIX4E), also known as Southbridge. The Northbridge chip is present directly on the MMC-2 Mobile Module (see chapter 4.2.2). It is responsible for controlling the basic CPU interfaces, especially to main memory, Level II cache, AGP bus, and PCI bus transactions. The Southbridge chip, mounted on the PentiCam's main board, is a multipurpose device connecting the PCI bus to the ISA bus as well as to other peripheral devices, such as IDE and USB. 4.2.4. MEMORY Any standard PC66 or PC100 SO-DIMM, 3.3V SDRAM module can be plugged into the 144-pin socket on the main board. The size may vary among 32, 64 or 128 MB. The speed for the Pentium II main board is 66 MHz.

PicPort Series 4-7 LEUTRON VISION http://www.leutron.com System Architecture

4.2.5. COMPACTFLASH CARD INTERFACE PentiCam provides an interface to IDE-compliant storage devices, such as CompactFlash Type I or II and IBM Microdrive. These devices (dimensions 36.4×42.8×3.3 mm for Type I, 5 mm for Type II) are plugged directly to the PentiCam main board. Typical capacity of these devices is 340 MB, 512 MB or 1 GB for Microdrive and 16–220 MB for CompactFlash. CompactFlash memory card may be used as a substitute of lower capacity hard disk especially in high vibrating environment. They offer faster seek and access times, higher reliability and data integrity – even when exposed to high shock or vibration. 4.2.6. VGA CONTROLLER The Silicon Motion SM710G4 (LynxEM4) is an AGP based VGA controller with 4 MB on-chip video memory. It provides high graphics performance, high data throughput, high refresh rates, low power consumption with dynamic power management, and other features. 4.2.7. ETHERNET CONTROLLER The Intel GD82559ER fast Ethernet PCI controller is a fully integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX LAN solution containing both the Media Access Controller (MAC) and physical layer (PHY) in one component. It supports full duplex or half duplex in both 10 and 100 Mbps modes. Other interesting features include improved dynamic transmit chaining, IEEE 802.3u auto-negotiation support, 3 kB transmit and receive FIFOs, fast back-to-back transmission support, IEEE 802.3x 100BASE-TX flow control support, low power consumption, and sophisticated power management. 4.2.8. SUPER I/O CONTROLLER The SMSC FDC37B77 Super I/O controller is a multipurpose ISA chip controlling various input/output devices: COM1, COM2, LPT1, PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse, floppy interface, IrDA interface. 4.2.9. OTHER CONTROLLERS Several other important chips of the PentiCam main board include: • Xilinx CPLD XC9536XL – chip for temperature, watchdog and fault control by means of software • Microchip PIC16C711 – microcontroller providing power up sequencing for the Mobile Module and the fan speed supervision 4.2.10. BIOS PentiCam uses General Software BIOS in 1 Mbit Flash Device. It assures a 100% compatibility to existing desktop PCs and a possibility of in-circuit BIOS upgrade (see chapter 6.1). PC and VGA BIOSes are combined on one chip. 4.2.11. BATTERY The PentiCam is provided with a 3 V “coin cell” lithium battery for RTC. Suitable batteries include the 200 mAh CR2032 of Renata.

IDE INTERFACE The power supply & hard disk carrier board provides additional IDE interface (2.5" and 3.5"), connected with the main board via the Leutron defined JN4/PN4 PMC connector (see chapter 4.1.1). The bottom side of the board is equipped with a standard 44-pin 2.5" IDE connector. The board also provides holes for mounting any 2.5" IDE hard disk with maximum thickness of 9.5 mm. Moreover, the board possesses a 3.5" IDE port (standard 40-pin 2.54 mm pinrow connector). This connector may be used e.g. for temporary connecting an externally powered CD drive. PentiCam is delivered with an additional 2.5" IDE to 3.5" IDE conversion adapter (see Figure Figure 5.3.6). Note: Please note that due to the IDE specification, only two IDE devices may be used at a time. It means that the three IDE interfaces (3.5", 2.5", and 1") may not be used all at once.

4-10 Getting Started System Architecture http://www.leutron.com LEUTRON VISION

4.3.2. POWER SUPPLY The power supply & hard disk carrier board accepts a 24 V nominal power input (18-36 V input is possible) interfaced via a 2-wire cable with the power input connector on the PentiCam's back panel (see Figure 4.6.2). The power supply may be used only for feeding standard PentiCam parts (plus the connected cameras). The external devices connected to PentiCam (like CD or Floppy drive) must be powered from an external source. Power consumption of PentiCam is dependent on number and type of PicPort® framegrabbers used in the system and on the connected cameras. 4.3.3. POWER INPUT PROTECTION The power input protection, made by means of a fuse F701 (removable Schurter SupraFuse Classic SFC 125 V/2 A), a voltage dependent resistor RVDR701 (Siemens CN1812K35G) and a Transil diode DTR701 (ST Microelectronics SMCJ33A-TR). This input protection circuit assures that no other parts of PentiCam should be damaged in case of improper power input. PentiCam series C and higher are delivered with a spare fuse on the power supply & hard disk carrier board. The circuit diagram is shown on Figure 4.3.3, the layout of individual components on the board is shown on Figure 4.3.4 (overall layout of the board is described e.g. on Figure 4.8.16). MAIN POWER INPUT DC/DC CO701 F701 DC-PWR-2P-H FUSE-SFC-2.0A converters PWR DC+ VDC IN+ for +5V RVDR701 VDR-S10K35-SO VDC IN- DTR701 DTR1.5KE33A-SO for +12V

Figure 4.3.4: Power input protection circuit, component layout

Note: Spare fuses may be ordered from Leutron Vision or directly from Schurter. 4.3.4. DC/DC CONVERTERS The onboard DC/DC converters accept the power input voltages within a range of 18-36 V (nominal input is 24 V) and provide isolated +5 V and +12 V DC voltages that are distributed within the PentiCam through the JN4/PN4 PMC connector. The +12 V power supply for a camera is available on the camera interface connector on the PentiCam's back panel. The nominal power output of the 5 V converter is 25 W/5A. The nominal power output of the 12 V converter is 4 W/330 mA (15 W/1250 mA or other options are available). The 12V DC/DC is used only for feeding the PicPort® framegrabbers and the connected cameras. The required power output of the 12 V DC/DC converter is dependent on number and type of the cameras connected to PentiCam. A variety of industrial proved DC/DC converters may be used. 4.3.5. ADDITIONAL CONNECTORS The board also provides two more connectors intended mainly for OEM use. The COM2 connector (5x2 male header) mounted on the host side of the HDP connects to standard RS232 DSUB to 10pin Flat conversion cables.

PicPort Series 4-11 LEUTRON VISION http://www.leutron.com System Architecture

The second additional connector is a 4-pin power output connector providing both the 12 V and 5 V power supply. However, this connector is intended just for testing and measurement purposes, e.g. for correct power supply control. The connector may not be used to supply an additional device (like a CD drive), because PentiCam does not provide enough power for such operation. Furthermore, the board also possesses a control diode for status control of 12 V power supply. 4.3.6. ADDITIONAL PMC BOARD ABOVE HDP When a 3rd party PMC board (see chapter 4.5) is used with PentiCam, it is usually mounted between the PicPort® framegrabber (PZM or PZC) and the HDP board. However, in some cases (especially in case of boards not originally designed for PentiCam) this is not possible and such boards must be mounted above the HDP board. Then the HDP design requires some changes. First, it must possess host PMC connectors (JN1, JN2, JN4) on its top side to allow plugging the 3rd party extension board. Second, even the DC/DC converters must be removed from the HDP board, because their height does not allow mounting additional PMC module. Please contact Leutron Vision for further details.

4.4.1. PICPORT-MONO, PICPORT-STEREO A brief overview of PicPort®-Mono and PicPort®-Stereo framegrabbers and their features are listed below. 4.4.1.1. Input Format In general PicPort® boards accept video resolutions up to 2048×2048, 2:1 interlaced or non-interlaced mode, pixel shape in accordance with CCIR601 or square. PicPort® analog models accept video sources compliant with CCIR or RS170 video standards. In addition many non-standard cameras, i.e. progressive scan, can also be interfaced by utilizing an easy to use Camera Editor. Single-channel and dual-channel cameras are supported in all operating modes. 4.4.1.2. Digitizers and Input LUT For the PicPort® range 8 bit, 20MHz, A/D converters are used to digitize the video input. The PicPort®-Mono has a single A to D and the PicPort®-Stereo has two. A programmable Input LUT can be used for real-time manipulation of brightness, contrast, gain and offset. 4.4.1.3. Image Preprocessing The digitized image may be scaled down (using fine mathematical interpolation algorithms), mirrored, or overlaid by arbitrary graphics. Finally, it is converted to desired target color model (RGB or monochrome with different bit depths). For display on 8-bit VGA card, the 20 Windows system colors are preserved by means of LUT; 236 grayscale values are represented on the card. 4.4.1.4. Data Transfer The digitized and conditioned data is transferred using two independent DMA channels directly to the CPU and/or video memory without on board intermediate storage and with minimal CPU intervention. The board acts as a PCI bus master allowing transfers at peak rates of up to 132 MB/s i.e. real time transfer for all acquisition modes. The two independent DMA channels provide many modes of operation including simultaneous transfer of video data from a single image source to main memory for processing and to video memory for display. A dual channel camera, that outputs two fields of the same frame simultaneously, can be combined to build up a complete image in real time. Transfer of images from two synchronized cameras to two independent memory windows. 4.4.1.5. Synchronization PicPort® framegrabbers are able to work in the «slave» synchronization mode (accepting CVBS, H/V or pixel clock synchronizing signals from the camera) or in the «master» mode (controlling camera timing by providing H/V or pixel clock synchronization). Furthermore, they are able to work in asynchronous (triggered) mode. 4.4.1.6. Input/Output Camera Connector Configurations All the PMC based PicPort®-Mono/Stereo framegrabbers are equipped with a single D-sub connector for interfacing the camera. In addition to the video inputs the PMC models are all capable of H/V and pixel clock I/O, 8 programmable opto-isolated general purpose I/O lines and are complete with a 12 VDC power supply for the camera. The video interface is model specific: PicPort®-Mono-44S-PMC features 4 video inputs, where only one each input may be digitized at a time via a single digitizer. PicPort®-Stereo-44S-PMC has also 4 video inputs, but two of them may be digitized simultaneously via two digitizers. Finally, PicPort®-Stereo-44D-PMC has 4 video inputs as well, but is intended for dual-channel cameras where only one dual-channel camera can be digitized at a time. 4.4.1.7. Digital Control I/O All the PMC based PicPort®-Mono/Stereo or Color framegrabbers are equipped with a 40-pin flatcable connector for interfacing the 8 programmable opto-isolated general purpose inputs and the 8 programmable opto-isolated general purpose outputs.

PicPort Series 4-15 LEUTRON VISION http://www.leutron.com System Architecture

4.4.2. PICPORT-COLOR Contact Leutron Vision for detailed description. 4.4.3. TWO PICPORT FRAMEGRABBERS IN THE SYSTEM PentiCam may be optionally extended with a second PicPort® framegrabber. Such system requires a different (higher) case with two video input connectors, one for each PicPort®, on the back panel (see Figure 4.6.2). 4.4.4. OPTOCOUPLER INTERFACE For synchronization of events like start/stop, trigger, good/bad, input/output etc. PicPort® PMC boards offer 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs, which can be controlled by software. For use in industrial environment, the signals are isolated by the use of optocouplers. To take full profit of this signal isolation, you have to connect the optocoupler to an external power supply. As you see in the Figure 4.4.3, the optocoupler input is prepared for input signals of 5 V or 24 V with the appropriate onboard serial resistors. For other signal levels an additional serial resistor has to be added to guarantee the proper forward current. The optocoupler output is prepared for external voltage of 5 V or 24 V. Pin description of the digital I/O interface is listed in chapter 4.8.2.4. Schematics of the digital I/O interface are provided in Figure 4.4.5 and Figure 4.4.6.

Figure 4.4.3: Optocoupler In- and Output

See the following examples (Figure 4.4.4). In industrial environment, signal levels of 24 V are usually needed.

4.5. THIRD PARTY EXTENSION BOARDS The PentiCam system may be optionally extended with one 3rd party PMC board (I/O, Profibus, CANbus, etc.). However, this solution requires a higher PentiCam case (similarly as when a second framegrabber is used) and the extension board must also fulfill several other requirements. 4.5.1. REQUIREMENTS FOR THIRD PARTY BOARDS When considering extending PentiCam with a 3rd party PMC board, please always contact Leutron Vision for an advice before installation. The basic requirements for PMC boards used in PentiCam are listed hereafter: • the board must fulfill mechanical requirements according to IEEE1101.10 • besides the holes defined by the PMC standard, four additional holes for assembling the boardset must be present (see Figure 4.4.1 and Figure 4.5.1); the holes should be designed for M2.5 fixing screws • besides the PN1 and PN2 PMC module connectors (standard 32-bit PCI), the additional PN4 connector is also used (see chapter 4.1.1); recommended connector model is AMP 120527-1 • to enable board stacking, the module PN1, PN2, and PN4 connectors must be repeated on the top side of the board as host connectors JN1, JN2, and JN4. The PN4/JN4 connectors has to be fed through 1:1. On the JN1/PN1 and JN2/PN2 connectors all pins must be connected according to Leutron Vision specification – contact manufacturer; recommended host connector model is AMP 120524-1 • distance between individual boards (stacking height) is 15 mm • no user-defined signals on the PMC connectors are supported (all are reserved, please contact Leutron Vision for more information) • PentiCam does not provide -12 V power supply If using a 3rd party PMC board not originally designed for PentiCam, some further modifications of PentiCam would probably be needed. Please contact Leutron Vision for help.

4.6. CASE AND COOLING The PentiCam case consists of the front panel, back panel, side panels with fan and ventilation holes, and finally of two heatsink panels. The overall dimensions of the standard PentiCam case are 91×91×162 mm. Please contact Leutron Vision for information about dimensions of the other versions of PentiCam (the version with built-in vision camera or the version with the second PicPort® framegrabber). 4.6.1. FRONT PANEL

The front panel provides all the PC-related PentiCam interface provided by the main board and by the main front panel board (see chapter 4.2). Pin description of all the connectors is described in chapter 4.8.1. 4.6.2. BACK PANEL

Figure 4.6.2: PentiCam case, back panel

PicPort Series 4-21 LEUTRON VISION http://www.leutron.com System Architecture

The back panel provides a 24 VDC power input connector (4-pin male Binder 711 2 09-0081-00-04) that is connected to the 2-pin power input on the power supply & hard disk carrier board (see chapter 4.3). The back panel provides also all the vision-related interface of the PicPort® framegrabbers (see chapter 4.4). The camera interface connector (44-pin or 25-pin D-sub) is mounted directly on the framegrabber, the opto- isolated digital I/O control connector (40-pin pinrow) is connected with framegrabber by a flatcable. In case of two framegrabbers in the system, the second camera interface appears on the back panel. Pin description of all the connectors is described in chapter 4.8.2. 4.6.3. INTERFACING THE POWER INPUT CONNECTOR Customers with their own power supply need to interface the PentiCam's power input connector (4-pin Binder, see chapter 4.6.2). They can either purchase a 4-pin Binder to 5-pin DIN conversion cable (20 cm by default) from Leutron Vision or buy proper connector (www.binder-connector.de) and make the cable themselves. The connector should be female Binder 711 2 99-0080-00-04 that relates to the 4-pin male Binder power input connector described in chapter 4.6.2. Table 4.6.1 shows wiring of such 2-wire conversion cable. Pin description of the two connectors featured by the conversion cable (i.e. 5-pin female DIN and 4-pin female Binder) is shown on Figure 4.6.3. Please use appropriate cable diameter for power input of up to 2.5 A.

The fan specifications include: dimensions 40×40×10 mm, MTBF 80000 hrs at 25 °C, power in 5 VDC, power consumption 0.65 W, speed 5500 rot/min, airflow 5.5 CFM (ft3/min), polarity protection, open collector control output delivering 2 pulses per rotation. The speed of the fan is controlled in an onboard microcontroller, which generates a FAULT signal when the speed decreases to less than 70 % of normal speed. This fault signal will be checked by a software utility delivered by Leutron Vision. The fan is connected with main board via a 3-wire cable delivering the power input (5 VDC), the control signal output (2 pulses per rotation, used for the fan speed control), and the ground. However, the fan connector on the PentiCam's front panel may eventually be used for external fan control. Note: If a customer wants to mount a different fan model, it should be a fan with high MTBF, air flow at least 5.5 CFM, 5500 rot/min speed, and with 5 VDC power in (12 V fans must be powered externally). 4.6.5. HEATSINK PANELS The top and bottom panels of PentiCam's case are realized as a heatsink so that no external fan is needed. The heat from the most critical parts is conducted directly to case through low resistance heatpath material. The mobile module's thermal transfer plate is attached to the bottom heatsink using a metallic (Al) plate and Raychem GTQ2500-T1.5 heatpath. The DC/DC converters are attached to the top heatsink using Raychem GTQ2100-T3.0 heatpath.

Note 1: Never run the PentiCam without the heatsink and the fan. Note 2: If a customer is looking for his own heatsink solution, we can recommend the Fischer elektronik Sepa MFB 40 B 05 designed especially for Intel Pentium II Mobile Module.

5. HARDWARE INSTALLATION AND UPDATES 5.1. GENERAL NOTES All the operations and changes on the PentiCam system must be carried out by sufficiently skilled operator only. The electronic boards are sensitive to static electricity. Therefore, when working with PentiCam hardware, be sure that antistatic standards are respected. If the boards are manipulated on conductive surfaces, a serious damage may be caused. The boards should be manipulated carefully as they are fragile and could be damaged when exposed to inappropriate force or torsion. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not open the case when the system is under power. When performing tests on the PentiCam, never run the system without proper cooling. Finally, please refer to chapter 7.1 to check the known restrictions of current PentiCam series.

5.3.4. BUILDING UP THE SYSTEM To build up the PentiCam system from scratch, please follow the steps listed hereafter. Please note that some of the steps may not be necessary, depending on the status from which you start building up the system. • Fix the three metallic M2×8 distance holders to the main board. Use M2×5 metallic screws and metallic underlays on both sides (i.e. under the screw and under the distance holder). All the distance holders, screws and underlays must be made from a well conductive material because they serve also for grounding the mobile module (please be sure they do not cause any short circuit with other parts of the board). • To the other side of the main board fix the four isolating M2.5×15 distance holders, two of them with additional screw thread. Use M2.5×6 screws and isolating underlays. The underlays should be positioned carefully under the screws to prevent any short circuits.

Plug it by pressing against the white marks drawn by sides of the Mobile Module (see also Figure 5.4.3). Be sure that the Mobile Module is fully plugged in the connector, otherwise the system will not work. Finally, fix it to the metallic distance holders using well conductive metallic screws and underlays. Size of the screws is M2×6 for the one near the memory module, resp. M2×4 for the two on the opposite side. • Put the heatpath material on top of the Mobile Module's thermal transfer plate. The lower surface with the two heatsink attach points should be covered with the square aluminous plate 40.2×40.2×2 mm with proper holes, the higher surface then with Raychem GTQ2500-T1.5 heatpath material.

Figure 5.3.13: Mounted memory and mobile module with heatpath

6. SOFTWARE INSTALLATION AND UPDATES 6.1. BIOS UPGRADE The flash BIOS may be upgraded to a newer version using the DOS-based PIICPROG utility delivered with PentiCam. The PIICPROG.COM executable file is located in directory C:\driver\dosutil\ba1_168. To upgrade the BIOS, please boot the MS-DOS system and run the utility from command line: PIICPROG Here is the path to the directory with PIICPROG.COM (usually C:\driver\dosutil\ba1_168) and is name of the data file with the new BIOS definition provided by Leutron Vision (currently the file is called ba1v168.bin). Please verify first if the new BIOS file you want to upgrade to really exists. Note: This procedure should be performed only when it is actually necessary. In case of improper usage of the PIICPROG utility (e.g. when incorrect BIOS definition file is used), the system BIOS may be irrecoverably damaged, what could result e.g. in unusable system, that will not boot without a new BIOS chip. 6.2. BIOS SETUP ADJUSTMENTS When using different IDE devices (CompactFlash or Microdrive vs. 2.5" hard disk), certain adjustments must be performed in the BIOS Setup program. The "IDE DRIVE GEOMETRY" item in the BIOS Setup must be set to the "Phoenix" mode if a CompactFlash card or a Microdrive device is used. On the other side, when the system uses a 2.5" hard disk, the "IDE DRIVE GEOMETRY" should be set to the "LBA" mode. 6.3. OPERATING SYSTEM Following operating systems are currently supported for use with PentiCam: • Windows NT4.0, Windows 2000, Windows NT Embedded • Linux SuSE 6.2, Red Hat Linux 6.0 and 6.1, Slackware 7 • contact manufacturer for information about other operating systems Please refer to the documentation of your operating system for installation notes. 6.3.1. WINDOWS NT4 Customers purchasing PentiCam including Microsoft Windows NT4 receive system with installed English version of Windows NT4 with service pack 5 (see chapter 6.4.1 for details). This chapter covers some notes needed for customers, who want to install their version of Windows NT4: • Source installation files of the operating system (as well as of other software) could be copied to the DOS partition of PentiCam's disk either via network or using temporarily connected CD drive. The installation can be then run from local disk and the source files remain accessible for possible future use. Keeping the DOS partition on the PentiCam disk is useful also because of certain DOS-based utilities coming with PentiCam. See chapter 6.4.1 with description of the directory structure on the DOS disk partition and chapter 5.4.12 describing how to connect a CD drive. • Do not install the network support during basic Windows NT4 setup, Microsoft default drivers could cause crash of the system. Use the original Intel drivers instead and install them afterwards. Chapter 6.5.3.2 covers details concerning installation of the network drivers under Windows NT4. • Install the original Silicon Motion video driver only when the service pack 5 is already installed. Chapter 6.5.1.2 covers details concerning installation of the video drivers under Windows NT4. • Windows NT installation may be run with the /B option, that starts installation without generating boot floppy diskettes (and thus the floppy interface is not needed).

6.4. PENTICAM WITH PREINSTALLED SOFTWARE 6.4.1. PREINSTALLED WINDOWS 2000/NT4 The PentiCam hard disk is divided into two partitions (their size varies with the size of the disk). The first (C:) partition, formatted for FAT file system, contains MS DOS (required for OEM specific tools, such as flash BIOS upgrade utility). It also contains various utilities and drivers needed for PentiCam maintenance, LV-SDS, or further vision-related software (Halcon, Vision Blox). The second, NTFS partition (D:) contains the Windows system. The Figure 6.4.1 shows accordant directory structure: • Dos folder: MS-DOS operating system. • driver folder: device drivers for PentiCam (lan82559 subfolder for the network adapter, sm710 subfolder for the video adapter) and setup files for installing LV-SDS under different operating systems (e.g. Dsy188 subfolder for LV-SDS 1.88). • i386 folder: a copy of Windows 2000/NT4 source and current service pack (because no CD drive is connected to the system) • lv_doc folder: contains PentiCam related documentation, especially a PDF file containing this manual. • Lvsds_nt folder: contains files of the LV-SDS package (see chapter 6.6.4). • Util folder: Leutron internal utility folder containing various DOS utilities required for maintaining PentiCam

6.5.2. ADJUSTING DISPLAY PROPERTIES UNDER WINDOWS Before you start using the LV-SDS Daisy support for the framegrabber, you have to check the settings of your display adapter. 6.5.2.1. Resolution We recommend a resolution of 800×600 or higher. It is possible to work with a resolution of 640×480 only, but you have to scale down the live camera image what will decrease the image quality. 6.5.2.2. Bits per Pixel (Color Resolution) Daisy will not work with 4 bits per pixel (bpp), i.e.16 colors. At least 8 bpp (i.e. 256 colors) is required. Select the appropriate recommended setting from the Table 3.1: 4 bpp or 8 bpp or 15 bpp or 16 bpp or 24/32 bpp or 16colors 256 colors 32k colors 64k colors true color PicPort®-Color No converts to OK OK recommended monochrome PicPort®-Mono No recommended OK OK OK PicPort®-Stereo Table 6.5.1: Recommended Settings for Color Resolution

Note: The "OK" in the table indicates that the frame grabber is capable to work in this format properly, but this format may not be suitable for further real-time processing, as time-consuming format conversion would have to be made. For example, if you have a monochrome camera and 32k colors set on your display adapter, the framegrabber will work properly and you will be able to access the image in memory as a bitmap in RGB format with 5 bits for each color. However this format may not be suitable for further image processing, which usually requires 8-bit grayscale representation of the image. 6.5.2.3. Setting up the Color Resolution in Windows 2000 To setup a display in Windows 2000, run Start→Settings→Control panel, click on the Display icon and select the Settings card on the Display Properties dialog box (see the Figure 6.5.18 to Figure 6.5.20). If you do not have installed support for your display adapter yet, press the Advanced… button; in the next dialog box click the Adapter tab and then the Properties button and finally in the last dialog box click the Driver tab and the Update Driver... button. For the best performance we recommend you to use the original driver provided with the graphic adapter, not the generic one available in Windows. Select the appropriate settings for Colors (i.e. color resolution) and Screen Area (i.e. screen resolution) according to Table 6.5.1.

Figure 6.6.3: Selecting LV-SDS Components for Windows NT

Note 1: During installation several folders with LV-SDS files are created in the destination you specified in step 2, and some shortcuts are added to the Start→Programs menu. Please refer to Chapter 6.6.4 for more details. Note 2: Please proceed with testing the installation as described in Chapter 6.6.5. 6.6.4. INSTALLATION RESULTS A new LV-SDS menu is added to the Start→Programs menu in Windows. It contains shortcuts for the Camera Editor application, for the LV-SDS manual, as well as for several compiled sample programs. In the location, specified during installation (default is C:\), the folder structure with LV-SDS files is created. The main folder is named LVSDS_NT in Windows 2000/NT4.

Figure 6.6.4: Folder structure in Windows 2000/NT4

Under the destination folder the LV-SDS Setup program creates the • 3rdParty folder: supporting software for use of 3rd party vision tools with our PicPort boards (e.g. OCX for VisionBlox of Integral Vision, support libraries for HALCON of MVTec). • Backup folder: when you install a new version of LV-SDS, the last version of LVCamera.dat file (containing camera definitions, including user-created ones) is saved here. User thus can carry on using camera definitions created in previous installation. • Bin folder, containing DLLs, executables (Camera Editor, sample programs) and various data files belonging to Daisy/DirectCapture (camera definition files, real time application libraries etc.). • Drivers folder, including setup programs of further multimedia drivers, e.g. MCI. • Help folder, containing documentation to LV-SDS in form of a PDF file. • Include folder, containing C++ header files for Daisy/DirectCapture.

PicPort Series 6-23 LEUTRON VISION http://www.leutron.com Software Installation and Updates

• Lib folder, containing import libraries for Daisy/DirectCapture DLLs in versions for Borland C++ and Microsoft Visual C++. • Samples folder, containing the source code of various samples of the SDK usage. • The Twain_32 folder is created (if it did not exist) in Winnt folder (for Windows 2000/NT4). The Daisy folder is created in it and all appropriate files for TWAIN support are placed there.

The device driver for Leutron framegrabbers is also installed to Windows. 6.6.5. TESTING THE INSTALLATION Make sure that the Leutron Vision PicPort® PCI framegrabber is installed and the camera is connected with the appropriate cable to one of the video input connectors. Start the PicPort® Demo sample program from the Start→Programs→LV-SDS menu. The PicPort® Demo main control window appears (Figure 6.6.5).

Figure 6.6.5: PicPort® Demo, main window

First you should define the grabber/camera connections to be used for acquisition. Clicking on the Connections... button displays the Connections dialog box (Figure 6.6.6). If you run the demo for the first time, the list of connections will be empty.

Figure 6.6.6: PicPort® Demo, adding a connection

6-24 Getting Started Software Installation and Updates http://www.leutron.com LEUTRON VISION

Click the Add new... button to create a connection. In the next dialog box (Figure 6.6.7) you should see all the Leutron PCI framegrabbers which are installed in your system.

Figure 6.6.7: PicPort® Demo, selecting connection components

After selecting the grabber the Camera list box is updated. Select the camera type, which you have connected to your framegrabber. After selecting the camera, the possible connectors for this camera are displayed in the Connector box. Select the connector currently used for your camera connection and confirm the selection by pressing the OK button. The connection will appear in the list in Connection dialog box.

Figure 6.6.8: PicPort® Demo, testing new connection

Pressing the Test button (see Figure 6.6.8), you can test, whether the selected connection will work well. PicPort® Demo attempts to activate the video transfer. If it succeeds, the O.K. string is displayed in the Status column of the connection list. Otherwise it shows a message box informing about the actual problem (Figure 6.6.9). If such or similar error message appears, first check if the camera is switched on and properly connected to the connector, which you chose in the camera selection box. Verify if the camera type you selected corresponds with your actual camera device. Note: because the test is in fact performed by checking for the proper synchronization signals, no problems will be announced for a slave camera even if it is not properly connected to the grabber.
