Page 3: 1Key Features
The benefits are: high speed data transfer rates up to 1GBit/s (based on 1000Base-T) connectible to every standard GigE Ethernet port and cable lengths up to 100m. Dewesoft uses Smartek GigE SDK for communication with cameras that support GigE Vision standard. IMPORTANT For best performance we recommended using a SSD for storing data. -

Page 7: 2Sirius Connection Example
Note: Even if the camera is connected, synching to other SIRIUS devices is still possible, because there are different pins used on the SYNC port for triggering/synching. Illustration 4: SIRIUS SBOX with 1 SIRIUS slice connected to the DS-CAM-88c (or DS-CAM-120c) (per cable H12f-L1B7m-L00B4m-3M) -

Page 13: 3Installation
3 Installation 3.1 DEWESoft Fullinstaller Usually all the drivers come with the DEWESoft Fullinstaller, if you select the option “GigE camera driver” during installation. To check if the drivers are installed, go to Settings → Hardware setup → Video and see if the checkbox “GigE” is visible. If not, execute the fullinstaller again, select Modify and reinstall the option. - Page 14 Connect the camera to the PC via Ethernet cable and Power/Trigger-cable. See connection example shown in 2.2.2. The DS-CAM-88c/120c supports DHCP, so just set your computer's IP address to automatic and wait until the IP is assigned. To test if the camera is working you can run Smartek GigEVisionClient.
- Page 15 Copy and replace your existing DEWESoftX.exe with the one downloaded. Start DEWESoft and go to Settings > Hardware setup > Analog. For triggered mode (DEWESoft is clocking the camera), check if your device (such as SIRIUS for example) is set to Standalone or Master: Illustration 13: Dewesoft >...
- Page 16 For the “File types for storing” you can chose between: “DVI”, which is uncompressed DEWESoft video format (takes a lot of disk space, ~35 Mbyte / s / camera @ 640x480 and 120fps, but no video size limit) – or “AVI”, the live compression will take CPU power, performance depends on the used...
- Page 17 This is done with the “USB Firmware Upgrade Utility” from http://www.dewesoft.com/download. Also the Firmware File can be downloaded there. Close DEWESoft, start the Upgrade Tool, select “DEWESoft USB” interface and firmware file and Start. After finished, it is very important to unplug power AND USB cable and reboot the SIRIUS device.

Page 19: 4Faq
Is the Trigger cable connected? Try decreasing the Shutter value Check in hardware setup if the DEWESoft USB device is set to Master or Standalone Disable Trigger in hardware setup and check if it’s working in free-run mode (cable problem?) - Page 20 If the cameras are found, close GigEVisionClient and start DEWESoft. Change IP address of the camera If you manually change the IP address, please close DEWESoft, start the GigEVisionClient, right-click on the camera and select “Set IP to device”; use the same subnet as the computer, example: PC: 192.168.1.100, Subnet 255.255.255.0...
- Page 21 DEWESoft™ DEWESoft™ DEWESoft™ Cameras not working in DEWESoft If you followed the step-by-step installation procedure, but still the camera is not working in DEWESoft, you can try to copy the used dll's manually: Copy the 32-bit dll’s from C:\Program Files\Smartek\GigEVisionSDK\bin\Win32 C:\Program Files\Smartek\GigEVisionSDK\GenICam\bin\Win32_i86 DEWESoft’s Addons folder.
- Page 22 DEWESoft™ DEWESoft™ Also an overloaded DEWESoft setup (many displays, e.g. high resolution FFT instruments) will take system power. Try at first only with camera video instruments. Press <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<P> in DEWESoft Measure mode. On the right side the performance monitor will appear.
