c. Verify that the inspection area (meaning the area that the camera is viewing) is correctly
illuminated.
d. Verify that the camera and camera port match. The VA61 was configured before shipping
from Teledyne DALSA, with the cameras ordered with the VA61. The cameras cannot be
swapped between the two ports.
e. Verify that all cameras are successfully configured and available, by hovering over the
camera icon in the System tray (by the time display in the lower right corner).
f. Verify the Camera Selector has GigE camera selected. Installing a new software version
defaults to the analog cameras. Click the bubble beside GigE, then click the "Set" button
at the bottom of the Camera Configurator window.
2. Your iNspect Solution file does not load. There are no measurements displayed.
If the camera type used in the saved solution does not match the current attached camera, the solu-
tion will not load. iNspect will start a New Solution.
a. Use the Report Generator utility to create a report of your Solution file. This will specify
the cameras in use when the Solution was created.
3. You have launched Sherlock, but the Sherlock application fails to open.
This problem is usually caused by either a mismatch in the available hardware and the configura-
tion files, or an incompatibility in the configuration file and the camera.
a. Verify all cameras are available, by hovering over the camera icon in the System tray, or
Start–Programs–DALSA–Sapera Network Imaging Package–Teledyne DALSA GigE
Vision Device Status. If Sherlock is running the cameras should be "Connected". If Sher-
lock is closed, the cameras should be "Available". If the Status windows says "IP Error"
the addresses are not correctly set. Refer to Appendix E. If the Status window says "GVSP
Unavailable" there is a problem with the GigE port driver. Refer to the document "Solv-
ing GVSP Unavailable" on your VA61 in \Install Files\VAGenie, or on the Sherlock CD,
in the directory \VAGenie.
b. Examine the file \Sherlock\Drivers\SaperaLTDrv.ini, and determine which Camera Con-
figuration files are in use, and how many cameras are called out.
c. Open the Sapera CamExpert utility from a desktop icon or from the Start menu: Start–
Programs–DALSA–Sapera
d. Select a Camera from the "Device" drop down. Select the camera configuration file
called out by the SaperaLTDrv.ini file. Notice if the message pane contains any errors. If
there are error messages, the camera firmware is not compatible with some parameter(s)
in the file.
