GEVA User’s Reference 405-00024-00
38 Rev 02; 9 November 2010
• GEVA I/O drivers. Configures the connection of trigger inputs and strobe outputs from the
12-pin Trigger/Strobe Connector to the two 7-pin Camera power and I/O connectors. For Sap-
era LT and Sherlock, the driver default (no configuration file) is 2 separate triggers, and strobe
outputs enabled. You can make changes and save them to a file for use with Sherlock. Example
files are included on the GEVA. iNspect has its own separate configuration of the GEVA I/O.
• DCI-100 I/O drivers. Configures the programmable logic thresholds on the DCI-100 Module,
through the GEVA or PC serial port. The DCI-100 provides a way to connect camera power
and I/O, separate from the GEVA camera power and I/O connectors.
• Acquisition driver for the iNspect application. Cameras are ordered by IP Address when using
the generic configuration file. Cameras are ordered by their Serial Number when using a cus-
tom configuration file, as described in Appendix D.
• Acquire and display images. The default camera settings of this program are temporarily writ-
ten to the camera, to allow display in this utility. The camera settings in this program are not
used by the other application programs. Note: Changing the Camera Name in this program
may make the camera inaccessible to the Sherlock and SaperaLT software.
Sapera CamExpert
• Change camera configuration settings, such as exposure time, white balance, gain, color out-
put format. Gain and exposure time can also be changed from Sherlock and iNspect.
• Save camera settings to the camera memory or a configuration file. You can configure the cam-
era to load either your saved settings, or the factory settings, at power up. The preferred method
is to save your settings to both
the camera and a configuration file. Sherlock can load a configu-
ration file at startup. If multiple configurations are needed, you can save them to camera con-
figuration files. Several example configuration files are included on the GEVA.
• Acquire and display images. Changes to the camera settings are temporary, unless saved to the
camera memory or to a configuration file.
SaperaLT Runtime
• Acquisition utility for the Sherlock software. Sapera LT is used with the drivers in the Genie
Framework.
Genie Framework
• Genie camera acquisition drivers for the SaperaLT and Sherlock software. Genie camera firm-
ware update utility. A System tray icon provides status on the Genie camera connections.
(available, unavailable, disconnected).
