Acquiring with GigE Vision Cameras

This section provides information about using GigE Vision cameras with CVL. GigE Vision cameras do not use a frame grabber, but rather connect to a gigabit ethernet adapter board that you plug into your computer’s PCI Express bus.

To the CVL acquisition system and to the vision tools, a GigE Vision camera appears to be a frame grabber.

Note: Be sure to read the GigE Vision Cameras User’s Guide included with your CVL distribution to learn how to create a camera network, how to connect your camera to the network, and how to assign IP addresses to cameras.
