simultaneously acquisition with 1410

[Carmo]

Hello all!

In the attached file you can see the acquisition that I need to make.

The camera that I have is Jai CV A11 that should work in frame reset.

My higher frequency is 10 Hz (5Hz/pair of cameras).

I hope that this can be done in DMA, because my code is quite heavy.

I believe that the easiest way to make it is to do the acquisition in RGB mode (use the first cam as R and the second cam as G for instance and extact the plans in my code).

Can somebody help me to make the configurations in the camera and in the board?

Thanks in advance, best regards.

For genlocking, the slave cameras need to be synced with the master camera.
For this to happen:
 - the master camera needs to be configured as the master camera.  It should be outputting a HD output and VD output signal.  The data sheet says the internal dip switches to configure the VD input/output and HD input/output (details should be in the camera manual)
 - the slave cameras needs to be configured as slave cameras.  They should be receiving an input into their HD input and VD input lines from the master camera's HD out and VD out signals.  Use the internal dip switches to configure this.

The customer would then need to connect the master camera's Ext HD output, Ext VD Output, Pixel Clock Output, and Video Output to the 1409's HSYNC IN, VSYNC IN, PCLK IN, and Video 0 intputs.  Connect the slave cameras to the remaining Video 1, Video 2, and Video 3 inputs on the 1409.

Then in MAX, make sure for every channel, you select the JAI CV-A11 camera file and set the Video Lock Mode to External Lock mode. 

Verify that you can Snap an image successfully from each channel in MAX.
