Camera Link Camera Control Signal Overview
Four LVDS pairs are for general-purpose camera control, defined as camera inputs / frame grabber outputs by the Camera Link Base camera specification. These controls are on J1 (X64-CL iPro and
X64-CL iPro\Lite) and also on J2 for the second Base camera input of the X64-CL iPro in two Base configuration.
• Camera Control 1 (CC1)
• Camera Control 2 (CC2)
• Camera Control 3 (CC3)
• Camera Control 4 (CC4)
Each camera manufacture is free to define the signals input on any one or all four control signals. These control signals are used either as camera control pulses or as a static logic state. Control signals not required by the camera are simply assigned as not used. Refer to your camera's user manual for information on what control signals are required.
Note: The X64-CL iPro pulse controller has a minimum resolution of 1 us. When configuring the
Camera Link control signals, such as exposure control, etc. use values in increments of 1 us.
The X64-CL iPro can assign any camera control signal to the appropriate Camera Link control. The following screen shot shows the Sapera CamExpert dialog where Camera Link controls are assigned.

J4: External Signals Connector
Warning: Proceed with caution when connecting external devices or other computers to the signals
available on J4. Grounds should connect first and devices should be power up at the same time. External signal sources must not have voltage spikes or transients, else damage may occur on the X64-CL iPro.
A recommended solution is to use the optional X-I/O module which provides opto-coupled I/O
(see "
Appendix: X-I/O Module Option " on page 109
). All inputs or outputs provide a more electrically robust interface to outside devices offering better protection against real-world conditions.

X64-CL iPro: External Signals Connector Bracket Assembly
The External Signals bracket (OC-64CC-0TIO1) provides a simple way to bring out the signals from the
X64-CL iPro External Signals Connector J4 to a bracket mounted DB25. Install the bracket assembly into an adjacent PC expansion slot and connect the free cable end to the X64-CL iPro J4 header. When connecting to J4, make sure that the cable pin 1 goes to J4 pin 1 (see layout drawings for your board revision:
" X64-CL iPro Board Series Layout Drawings
" on page 88 ).
Warning: Proceed with caution when connecting external devices or other computers to the signals
available on the External Signals bracket. Grounds should connect first and devices should be power up at the same time. External signal sources must not have voltage spikes or transients, else damage may occur on the X64-CL iPro.
A recommended solution is to use the optional X-I/O module which provides opto-coupled I/O
(see
" Appendix: X-I/O Module Option " on page 109
). All inputs or outputs provide a more electrically robust interface to outside devices offering better protection against real-world conditions.
Note: When using the optional X-I/O module, this external signals cable is not used. Instead a 26 wire
cable from the X-I/O J21 connects to X-I/O J4. All external signals described here plus the additional 8 input – 8 output general I/O controls are now on the X-I/O DB37 connector. See "
" on page 109 for installation and pinout information.

Connecting a TTL Shaft Encoder Signal to the LVDS/RS422 Input
A TTL shaft encoder signal can be directly connected to the X64-CL iPro LVDS/RS422 (+) input but the low side (-) input of the pair must be biased with a DC voltage to ensure reliable operation. This section shows the connection diagram along with suggestions as to how to generate the DC bias voltage. The actual physical wiring is left as an additional detail to interfacing a shaft encoder to the X64-CL iPro to the imaging system.

• LVDS/RS422 (-) input is biased to a DC voltage from +1 to +2 volts.
• This guarantees that the TTL signal connected to the LVDS/RS422 (+) input will be detected as a logic high or low relative to the (-) input.
• The TTL shaft encoder ground, the bias voltage ground, and the X64-CL iPro computer system ground must be connected together.
• The maximum frequency for any shaft encoder input is 1 MHz.

The incoming trigger pulse is “debounced” to ensure that no voltage glitch would be detected as a valid trigger pulse. This debounce circuit time constant can be programmed from 0

J7: Board Sync
Interconnects multiple X64-CL iPro boards to synchronize acquisitions to one trigger or event. The trigger source can be either an external signal or internal software trigger. The board receiving the trigger is the Master board. while the boards receiving the control signal from the Master board are Slaves.
• Hardware Connection: Interconnect two, three, or four X64-CL iPro boards via their J7 connector. The 3 pin cable is wired one to one — i.e. no crossed wires. The cable must be as short as possible and the boards must be in the same system.
• Master Board Software Setup: Choose one X64-CL iPro as master. The Sapera parameter
CORACQ_PRM_EXT_TRIGGER_SOURCE is set to either Mode 1–Output to Board Sync or
Mode 2–Control pulse to Board Sync. See Sapera documentation for more details.
• Slave Board Software Setup: The Sapera parameter
CORACQ_PRM_EXT_TRIGGER_SOURCE is set to From Board Sync.
• Test Setup: The control application starts the acquisition on all slave boards. The acquisition process is now waiting for the control signal from the master board. The master board acquisition is triggered and the acquisition start signal is sent to each slave board (with ~0.8μs delay max).
Contact Technical Support for additional information.
J8: Power to Camera Voltage Selector
When the PC floppy drive power supply cable is connected to J9, a shorting jumper on J8 selects either
5 Vdc or 12 Vdc for the camera power supply. This supply voltage is available on the External Signals
Connectorblock.
Important:
For the X64-CL iPro a 1.5A power on reset fuse is included on the board. If the fuse is tripped, power off
(not just a soft reboot) the computer system to reset the fuse.

Brief Description of Standards RS-232, RS-422, &
RS-644 (LVDS)
RS-232
Short for recommended standard-232C, a standard interface approved by the Electronic Industries
Association (EIA) connecting serial devices.
The standards for RS-232 and similar interfaces usually restrict RS-232 to 256kbps or less and line lengths of 15M (50 ft) or less.
Transmitted Data (TxD) This signal is active when data is transmitted from the DTE device to the DCE
device. When no data is transmitted, the signal is held in the mark condition (logic '1', negative voltage).
Received Data (RxD) This signal is active when the DTE device receives data from the DCE device.
When no data is transmitted, the signal is held in the mark condition (logic '1', negative voltage).
DTE (Data Terminal Equipment)
DCE (Data Communication Equipment)
RS-422
RS-422 uses a twisted-pair wire (i.e., 2 wires) for each signal. The differential drive voltage swing is 0 to
+5V. RS-422 does not have tri-state capability (its driver is always enabled) and it is therefore usable only in point-to-point communications.
Although RS-422 is noise resistant, due to being differential data can still be damaged by EMI/RFI. A shielded cable can protect the transmitters/receivers from EMI/RFI.
RS-644 (LVDS)
LVDS (Low-Voltage Differential Signaling): method to communicate data using a very low voltage swing (about 350mV) over two differential PCB traces or a balanced cable. LVDS allows single channel data transmission at hundreds of Megabits per second (Mbps).
