    Visionscape PCIe Digital I/O Boards Visionscape PCIe Digital I/O Boards Extended discrete digital I/O is provided for GigE/PC based systems by two PCIe (PCI Express) add-in boards. These boards both provide 16 channels in and 16 channels out of optically isolated I/O at 24 volts nominal signal level.
  • Page 21 Chapter System Components Both DIO kits are supplied with a 1.5m cable (Shielded Cable with two 37-pin D-Sub Connectors) for connection to a 32 DIN rail mount terminal strip, the dimensions of which are shown below. Visionscape GigE Camera Guide 2-10...

  • Page 23 Chapter System Components Connector Pin Assignments are as shown below for each board. 98-000142-01 (Sourcing) 98-000130-01 (Sinking) Using Input Points for Triggering Acquisition Hardware input points located on the DIO board may be specified in the Visionscape Acquire Step to trigger acquisition. Acquisition can be specified on either the leading edge or trailing edge of a pulse.
  • Page 24 Visionscape PCIe Digital I/O Boards Digital I/O Input Response Time The response time of Visionscape to a change of an input signal is a combination of the hardware and software response times. The hardware response time for all inputs is within 200?s from voltage change on an external pin to go through the optical isolation and be received by the PC.
  • Page 25 Chapter System Components within 400?s this is calculated by taking the 200?s hardware response for inputs + 200?s software response of the two changes at 100?s each. The above diagram represents the scenario of 4 input triggers transitioning simultaneously. After the voltage goes from high to low on the pins 0-3, it can take up to 200?s for the computer to register the level of inputs 0-3 and be read as logic highs.
  • Page 26 Visionscape PCIe Digital I/O Boards Field Wiring for Current Sourcing Configurations Input Wiring The input circuits of interface blocks of the current sourcing DIO board is illustrated in the image below. The signal inputs are isolated by opto- couplers (ready to accept current sinking output signals). The board therefore requires an external power supply to drive the inputs.
  • Page 27 Chapter System Components Digital I/O Trigger Wiring As noted above, the event notification on input lines is mono-directional. Inputs 0 to 7 can be used as a low-to-high trigger only, while inputs 8 to 15 can be used as a high-to-low trigger. In cases where trigger events are needed from both edges of a signal, the signal needs to be simultaneously wired to a low-to-high sensitive input pin and a high-to-low sensitive pin as shown in the above diagram.

  • Page 28: Output Wiring

    Visionscape PCIe Digital I/O Boards Connecting a Switch Input Output Wiring Connect the output signals to a current-driven controlled device such as a relay or LED. The connection requires an external power supply to feed currents. The board controls turning on/off the current-driven controlled device using a digital value.
  • Page 29 Chapter System Components The output circuits of interface blocks of the DIO-1616RL-PE are illustrated above. The signal output section is an opto-coupler isolated output (current source type). Driving the output section requires an external power supply. The rated output current per channel is 100mA at maximum.
  • Page 30 Visionscape PCIe Digital I/O Boards Field Wiring for Current Sinking Configurations Input Wiring Connect the input signals to a device which can be current-driven, such as a switch or transistor output device. The connection requires an external power supply to feed current. The board inputs the ON/OFF state of the current-driven device as a digital value.

  • Page 33: External Strobe And Sensor

    Chapter System Components External Strobe and Sensor For continuous motion or high-speed indexing applications, an external strobe and sensor may be required to freeze each part before the image can be acquired. When choosing your part sensor, you must consider the time interval between the part passing into the sensing zone and an electrical signal being generated.

  • Page 34: Configuring Your Network Adapter For Gige Visionscape

    QoS Packet Scheduler Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Some systems split internet protocol into two separate entries: TCP/IP Rev 4 and Rev 6. All Omron Microscan cameras use TCP/IP Rev 4. There may also be anti-virus filters such as “McAfee NDIS Intermediate Filter”.
  • Page 35 Chapter System Components Important: If you are using a third-party camera and you have installed that manufacturer’s control software make sure that you disable it in the Properties dialog below. It will almost certainly conflict with the JAI software that Visionscape uses to receive images from the cameras.  ...
  • Page 36 Configuring Your Network Adapter for GigE Visionscape The filter driver requires no setup whatsoever. Clicking on the TCP/IP Properties button will bring up the following dialog:   There is usually no need for cameras to be on a DHCP network, so choose a static address that starts with 192.168.x.x.
  • Page 37 Chapter System Components Omron Microscan recommends that you set your NIC to end in .2. For instance 192.168.2.2. If you have more than one camera NIC then set the second one to 192.168.3.2, and so on. Optimizing the Network Adapter for use with GigE Cameras To reduce the load on the PC to a minimum you need to optimize the NIC.
  • Page 38 Configuring Your Network Adapter for GigE Visionscape Next, click on the Advanced tab and you should see a list of parameters that can be tuned by the user.   Look for Jumbo Frames (sometimes called Jumbo Packets). Set this to the maximum available –...
  • Page 39 Chapter System Components Then select Receive Descriptors (if available). This is sometimes grouped within Performance Options:   Click on the Properties button to bring up this view:   Visionscape GigE Camera Guide 2-28...
  • Page 40 Configuring Your Network Adapter for GigE Visionscape The default value for receive descriptors is 256. Set this to the maximum available - typically 2048. Save changes by clicking OK. The NIC is now enabled to handle larger packets. This means that, instead of sending image data from the camera in chunks of 1500 bytes they can now come in chunks of 8192.
  • Page 41 Chapter System Components When you open the tool you will see a dialog similar to this:   The camera here is set to use DHCP and the address is 192.168.254.3. However, a persistent IP address is preferable. Check the “Use persistent IP” box and uncheck the “Use DHCP” box. Enter 192.168.254.3 in the lower IP address box and 255.255.255.0.

  • Page 43 Chapter System Components Then go to: My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Visionscape\ GigEVision\Camera_0 Note: In newer builds of Visionscape there are more entries in these directories. Depending on how many cameras you have connected you may have Camera_0, Camera_1, Camera_2 and Camera_3 directories – these all have the same things inside.

  • Page 44: Setting The Inter-Packet Delay

    Configuring Your Network Adapter for GigE Visionscape Change Base to Decimal:   Now enter 8192 in the Value Data text box:   Click on OK and you are done for setting the packet size. You’ve told Visionscape to use jumbo packets but the camera is still going to be sending data at the same rate –...
  • Page 45 Chapter System Components The inter-packet delay is the parameter that will allow us to control the rate of data from the camera. Let’s assume that we are using a CMG03c camera transmitting bayer data. This camera is capable of running at 91 fps with an 8 millisecond exposure time.
  • Page 46 Configuring Your Network Adapter for GigE Visionscape – Add in the 2.59 milliseconds to actually send the data. 2.59 + 27.71 = 30.3 milliseconds per frame. – The camera could run at 33 fps. – Set the inter-packet delay in the registry in exactly the same way as you set the packet size.
  • Page 47 Chapter System Components per second. Furthermore, this was not when the packet size was minimized but when it was set to 9000. The rate shown in FrontRunner is the display rate. The camera itself is running at least twice as fast. The rate displayed on-screen when in live video is meaningless in terms of the application runtime performance.

    System Assignments Explaining and Modifying the dm.config file The first time you plug a Omron Microscan GigE camera into a PC and start FrontRunner, a new file is created. This file is called dm.config and it can be found in the C:\Vscape\DM directory. DM stands for Device Manager, and this file is intended to manage all GigE devices attached to the PC.
  • Page 49 Note that only cameras that are connected via gigabit ethernet will be listed. We do not recommend or even allow the use of 100baseT networks with Omron Microscan GigE cameras. If you look closely, you'll notice that the assignment uid listed in the device section is the same as that shown for the resource uid for the attached camera.
