The FastVision Series of smart cameras have three to five 85MHz Channel Link interfaces that support many Camera Link defined standard interface protocols. Thus most Camera Link or Channel Link compatible frame grabbers can be interfaced with the FastCamera Series of High-speed CMOS cameras. The FastCamera Series interface support the following Camera Link protocols. Thus by using these protocols with one or several frame grabbers, one can readily interface the FastCameras.

The supported Camera Link interface commands are summarized:

SERIAL COM PORT BAUD RATES

        • 9600
        • 19200
        • 115200

    CAMERA LINK INTERFACE RATES

      • 33MHz
      • 42.5MHz
