Appendix A. Cameras
A.1. Introduction
The software adaptation for each camera is done by ELTEC Elektronik AG and included in the camera file
eleye716.cam which has to reside in the same directory as eleye716.dll.
if you don't find your camera in the list below ask the ELTEC Elektronik AG support (
<[e-mail]> ) to check if an adaptation is possible.

A.3. T Dalsa Spark SP-13-xxx30 / SP-14-xxx30
The camera has been adapted with a default frequency of 30 MHz.
In the default cable the clock lines have been connected to the camera, so that the frequency can be
lowered down to 4 MHz.
The cameras has also be adapted with three line sizes (512,1024, and 2048 pixel). The only difference
between these cameras is the minimun time after which the cameras can be retriggered. In the software
this value is called cycle time. The software ignores all values of the cycle time below the minimum times
needed for data readout and latency times of the specific sensor.
A.4. Hitachi KP-F100
The cameras uses its internal clock. So the value for the clock generated on the board is fixed to a value
of 20 MHz.
From the different modes of the camera the "single trigger mode has been selected". Due to limitations of
the camera the minimum exposure time has been limited to 161 us. The maximim time after which a new
frame can be retriggered, called cycle time in the software is limited by the exposre time plus the time
needed for data readout. So long exposure time leads to low frame freqeuncies.
A.5. ACC-1xx0 Eagle
All cameras use internal clock. Because the software needs the clock value to calculate exposure and
cycle times the (unused) clock generator has to be set to the frequence of the camera.
