Building on field-proven technology: the new Xcelera Frame Grabber

"The Xcelera-CL LX1 continues DALSA's practice of offering high-quality imaging components with varied functionality and price points to meet the needs of every OEM and system integrator."

Inder Kohli, Product Line Manager for DALSA

DALSA's latest addition to its camera link products is the Xcelera-CL LX1 Base image acquisition board. This easy-to-set up-and-use frame grabber delivers highly reliable image acquisitions and offers extensive software support through DALSA's Sapera Essentials software package.

The entry-level Xcelera-CL LX1 Base, built with DALSA's customary precision engineering, brings traditional image acquisition and processing technology to new levels of performance and flexibility.

How can implementing the Xcelera-CL LX1 Base enhance performance and increase flexibility in my applications?
	Designed for the PCI Express x1 interface (which allows point-to-point host interface), the Xcelera-CL LX1 can acquire images from a variety of multi-tap area and line scan, colour and monochrome cameras and is fully compliant with Camera Link (V. 1.20) specifications. (Camera Link operations are supported up to 85 MHz.)
Built with DALSA's Trigger-to-Image Reliability technology framework, the Xcelera-CL LX1 combines acquisition and external control signals on a single PCIe slot. Trigger-to -Image Reliability leverages 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 host. This functionality provides tracebility when errors do occur and permits recovery from those errors.
