4.3.17 Note on Camera Link Software DLL
Serial Interface to Camera Link Frame grabbers using Camera Link DLL:
If an interface is made according to the Camera Link standard, then the
software does not communicate via the Serial Port of the PC but via the
clser*.dll interface.
CameraLink standard 1.0:
The frame grabber uses the interface driver “clser*.dll” defined by the Camera
Link 1.0 specification to communicate with the camera.
(The star “*” indicates the specific code of the FG manufacturer)
Camera Link standard 2.0:
The frame grabber uses the generic interface driver “clallserial.dll” defined by
the Camera Link 2.0 specification to automatically load the correct frame
grabber-specific drivers. If the frame grabber does not support version 2.0,
then delete “clallserial.dll” and use version 1.0.
Operation:
• After starting ConvCam simply click “OK” on error message. This is due to
not cleared “communication path” of the Serial Port and it must be initiated.
• for Camera Link standard 1.0 only:
- Click on “Configuration”.
- Open “CamlinkDLL” ( File browser will open)
- Choose sub directory where clser*.dll is located. For example:
For EURESYS ( usually C:\WINNT\system32\), “clseremc.dll” .
• Set COM-Port to the appropriate number ( “1 “ for the first Camera
Link connector , “2” for the second connector a.s.o. ).
• Click on “ReadStatus”.
If there is still a problem or you would like to receive the “ConvCam User
Guide for Programmers” please contact SVS-VISTEK.
