When the need is to deliver concurrent image acquisition
The X64 Xcelera-AN LX1 Quad is a high-performance PCIe bus compatible frame grabber designed to deliver concurrent image acquisition from multiple independent standard and progressive scan analog cameras.

Image acquisition
The X64 Xcelera-AN LX1 Quad is capable of grabbing from four independent cameras at the same time, and offers independent control signals for each input channel to acquire, transfer and track images accurately.

Supporting high-resolution 8-bit image digitization, the X64 Xcelera-AN LX1 Quad offers independent image paths creating virtually four frame grabbers in one slot. The X64 Xcelera-AN LX1 Quad has been engineered within DALSA's exacting Trigger-to-Image Reliability technology framework to reliably and efficiently control and monitor the entire image acquisition sequence.

Optimised data transfer
Delivering fast and secure data transfer with zero CPU usage, the Data Transfer Engine (DTE) features a high-speed memory interface, multiple independent Direct Memory Access (DMA), and onboard tap descriptors, the DTE’s powerful architecture delivers robust performance for critical machine vision tasks. The DMAs allow the DTE to transfer images from the ACU to local frame buffer memory, or transfer the same image to multiple addresses in the host memory.

Software
The X64 Xcelera-AN LX1 Quad is fully supported by Teledyne DALSA’s Sapera™ Essential vision software: a suite of image-acquisition and processing libraries, tools and utilities offering a powerful camera configuration utility called CamExpert™ and image processing library evaluation tool, Sapera Architect.

In addition to more than 300 image processing functions, Sapera Essential offers a selection of image processing tools for machine vision including pattern finding (area and edge based techniques), OCR, barcode, calibration and blob analysis.

Teledyne DALSA Platform Development Advantage - Free Run-Time Licensing
The Sapera Essential standard processing tool run-time license is offered at no additional charge when combined with Teledyne DALSA frame grabbers. This software run-time license includes access to image processing functions, area-based (normalized correlation based) template matching tools, blob analysis and lens correction tools. (Some conditions apply).

Trigger-to-image Reliability Technology
THigh-speed in-line machine vision applications require tight integration between the trigger, strobe, camera exposure and frame grabber acquisition to ensure data integrity. Trigger-to-Image Reliability leverages Teledyne DALSA’s hardware and software innovations to control, monitor, and correct the image acquisition process from the time that an external trigger event occurs to the moment the data is sent to the PCI bus, providing traceability when errors do occur and permitting recovery from them.
