    2329 detector. A NIC with Jumbo packet support up to 9014 bytes is required to receive streaming video, preferably with a PCI Express slot. Teledyne DALSA advises to use the Intel Gigabit CT adapter Network Interface Card (NIC) which is a low cost but high performance and reliable adapter with a PCI Express slot.
  • Page 17: Software Installation

    Check the CD that shipped with your detector for installation files for CamExpert, the GigE driver and/or the ShadoCam software. To obtain the latest versions, or software for a newer operation system, it may be necessary to go to the Teledyne DALSA website for the latest updates.

    Some system and network card configurations may have difficulty streaming and handling jumbo packet data. If the system is having issues than it is advisable to disable the Jumbo Packet setting, and use standard size packets of 1500 bytes for your application.

    There should be enough pause for the detector to process the last frame from the previous operation. The pause duration required could be up to 500ms during summing modes. Please consult Teledyne Dalsa for more details on read out and trigger mode changing on the fly.
  • Page 33: Trigger Mode

    This read out method is called “butterfly read out”. The read out time in full resolution is 125msec. In 2x2 binning mode and 1x2 binning mode the read out time is reduced by a factor of 2, thus 62.5msec. Teledyne DALSA Rad-icon 2329 GigE Detector...
  • Page 34 To allow sufficient time for the sensor reset, the delay between rising edge of the trigger input and when the detector is exposed to x-ray should equal or higher to the reset or read out time (125ms) of the sensor. Rad-icon 2329 GigE Detector Teledyne DALSA...
  • Page 35 (reset) is initiated. When the dummy read is finished, trigger out will be active. The integration time is programmed by the Extended Exposure setting. When the integration-timer is finished, trigger out will become inactive and the detector read out starts. See figure below. Teledyne DALSA Rad-icon 2329 GigE Detector...
