Install & Configure Frame Grabber & Software The camera requires a Teledyne DALSA frame grabber due to high-bandwidth and custom patent- pending pixel processing; currently the camera is supported exclusively by Xtium2-CLHS PX8 HR (OR-A8S0-HX870). A GenICam compliant XML device description file is embedded with the camera firmware. It allows GenICam compliant applications to recognize the camera’s capabilities, once connected.
