Pin assignment of RTSI connector (PCIe-1429)

I world like to use a hardware trigger to start the image acquisition of the frame grabber PCIe-1429, but don't use the SMB connector or Camera Link I/O Extension Board.
Is there any schematic/document to show the pin assignment of the RTSI connector?
Thanks.

Hi Joseph,
Thanks for your prompt reply and information.
Actually I'll generate the trigger signal (from a printer port of PC) to the RTSI connector of PCIe-1429 frame grabber card. Once there is a hardware trigger event to be detected, the image acquisition will start to capture the image from a line-scan camera.
I find the document you mentioned is for DAQ PCI board. Is the pin assignment identical between the DAQ PCI and PCIe-1429?
Many thanks.

Need 50-pin connector pin assignment list for valuemotion NuDrive 4SX-411

Hi,
I need a copy of the 50-pin connector pin assignment list for the valuemotion NuDrive 4SX-411. I have the 321942B-01 User Guide document, but it does not contain the pin assignement list. I can't find the information on NI's website.
David Geminden

You can find the pin assignment in the user manual of the PCI-7314/7324 ValueMotion controller. On page 38 in this document there is the 50 pin assignement of these boards, that is compatible to your NuDrive. Please note that this is the pin assignment from the controller's point of view.
I hope this helps,

Configuring RTSI on the PCIe-1429

Hi
I have a Teli camera (CSC12M25BMP) and a PCIe-1429 frame grabber. I would like to configure the frame grabber so that certain signals that are currently sent through the CameraLink cable are sent through the RTSI instead (or in addition to). More specifically, I require the end-of-acquisition or acquisition-in-progress to be sent that way. Is this possible?
Many thanks,
Gary
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Why do you say two RTSI lines? I'm using line 0 already for the trigger. I just need one more to tell me when the camera is in the process of capturing an image. I'm interfacing the frame grabber with a 7811 FPGA card, in case that makes a difference.
Also, since writing my first post, I re-read this article which leads me to believe I should use "Frame Start" instead of "Acquisition in Progress. This is because I only want the RSTI line high when the camera is capturing a frame rather than a whole session. Essentially, I am after some signal which the FPGA card can read to tell me when a particular frame is captured.
I've attached the VI that I was working on. Is this in the right direction?
Many thanks,
Gary

How to route Quadrature Encoder signal to CC1 using PCIe 1429 + IO extension card

Hi there,
i am currently trying to interface the Basler L304kc to the NI PCIe 1429 + Cameralink IO extension board
I want to operate the camera in Ex-SYNC level controlled mode. I would like to route external Quadrature Encoder signals (connected to the IO extension board) to the CC1 cameralink control of the camera
Currently, I cannot find this option either in MAX or the Camera File Generator.The L304kc camera file only provides pre-defined pulses, or MAX only offers "External","ISO","RSTI" options for the CC1 sources.
Is it possible to route the encoder signal from the IO extension board directly to the CC1 of the camera? Or is there a work-around?
Thanks!

Hi Alex,
I posted the following (similar) text to the support center but I think it is of common interest:
A) CL-card with ext. board. One can use the ISO, ext. and RS422 encoder inputs and also output cannels ISO and external.
There is also a SMB connector corresponding to the ext. channel 0.
B) with MAX one can define what kind of signals should be routed to CC1 to CC4. As I learned from
this side one cannot use MAX or the Camera File generator but has to do this manually in order to use RS422 encoder triggering!!!
C) on the other side there exists function to route and control signals explicitely, for example
* imgSessionLineTrigSource2 -> what is this good for then? All your manuals are saying that this is done in MAX or the camera file by defining what signal drives the correspondung CC ine?? On the other side there is an example in CVI that does not work ("Trigger Each Line From Encoder") (at least it does not work with the PCIe1430).
D) Can one implement the CC routing from MAX or the camera file manually with the following functions
* imgSessionLineTrigSource2
* imgPulseCreate2
* imgSessionTriggerDrive2
or does MAX use hidden functions ore mechanism to control the CL Cards?
E) I can use one single line to setup scaled encoder triggering
* imgSessionLineTrigSource2(iLS_ZK1_SessionID, IMG_SIGNAL_SCALED_ENCODER, 0, IMG_TRIG_POLAR_ACTIVEH, 0);
but this only starts to work if I reset the encoder position to zero by sending this to the CL card, i.e.
* imgEncoderResetPosition(SessionID);
AND only in positive counting direction!
If I just run though the zero position without a position reset I do not get ExSync on CC1????
Is the information where to route the Scaled encoder to coming from the camera file? Why cannot I simply and explicitely route the scaled encoder
signal to a certain CC line? Why using all those different approaches?
F) now if in addition to E) i use
* imgSessionTriggerDrive2(iLS_ZK1_SessionID, IMG_SIGNAL_EXTERNAL, 0, IMG_TRIG_POLAR_ACTIVEH, IMG_TRIG_DRIVE_SCALED_ENCODER);
to drive ext. 0 (SMB connector) I can see exactly this behavior on the scope. No signal until I reset the encoder counter. Then I get signals as long as the image sequence is running. After the recording the signal disappears.

To increase the framerate of a Basler Cameralink Camera(A504K) with a Card Grabber PCIE-1429

Hi,
I am using a monochrome Basler Cameralink Camera(A504K)of resolution 1280x1024 with a card grabber PCIE-1429 (x4 slot). The image acquisition is controlled through MAX of LabVIEW version 11.0.1. The problem is that when I try to reduce the number of rows(more specifically Height) from 1024 to 32(say)in the acquisition window(of MAX), the frame rate of the camera should increase almost upto 16,000fps. But it is not going beyond 248fps. Can you suggest me, why is it so happening, Or How to increase its frame rate? Also, below the image window there appeared something like: 1280x32    1X   8-bit image 9. What does 1X actually mean here?For your ready reference I am also attaching the image of the acquisation window.
Thanks!

Hi Anto,
things are more complicated in my case. The computer I/O and/or speed of the HDD do no let me to save large stream of frames at desired frame rate. Therefore, I do following:
1) send each frame into the queue; I had to reduce frame size to 720x512 instead of full resolution
2) since I have 8 cores on that machine, I created 4 tasks which do only one thing: take a frame from the queue and save it into the disk as fast as possible with no image processing
3) saving on the HDD is an issue, so each of 4 tasks save frames into the virtual 24Gb drive instead of the real HDD. Even SSD drive will not help you!
4) note, frames are saved in an uncompressed BMP format! If you attempt to save them as jpg then your CPU will spend crucial 2-10ms for compressing it.
With this implementation and camera (with specs of only 340fps) I managed to grab frames with peak 735fps rate. My point is that your bottleneck probably lies not in the method you use/call to save the frames, but in computer hardware and I/O. You have to accumulate frames in RAM or virtual drive and then save them without processing.
I still have some frame loses, it is approximately 1-2% of the frames are lost. I do not know why. Some notes:
1)      to achieve as less as possible frame loss you have to minimize information you output on UI in real-time.
2)      Utilize multitasking!
3)      Put highest priority for your VI (check settings in properties)
4)      In theory the 64bit should perform a bit better than 32bit LabView, in my experience it is in opposite. I run 32bit LabView on 64bit Windows7 machine. This is strange…
5)      Unfortunately 32bit LV has limitation on RAM allocation (4Gb only) otherwise I would store all captured frames in RAM (32Gb) avoiding even usage of the virtual drive. I use 24Gb virtual drive. It is enough for me to capture frames for about 1-1.5 minutes @735fps.
6)      If you need any kind of real-time image processing (which I would like to have) then probably you need to purchase FPGA card and program it.
Actually, seem that LabView and VDM modules do not utilize computer hardware optimally. I would like to use the power of all cores and even GPU. The GPU can encode and process images, but LV has limited support of it.
The best option for lossless capturing, at least for me, is to find the time and write a C++ code which will do the job.

Alexander

I have difficulty charging my iphone 5. The nearest service center said that there are missing pins in my lightning connector.

My phone is still under warranty but the service center said that it is voided due to the missing pins inside the lightning connector. What do i do with this? My phone can charge but you need to press on the cord a little for it to click. My cord is not the issue because I just bought it and it is brand new.

Well, your service is handled by an Authorized Apple Service Center. If they refuse to handle the claim, that is well within their rights. Apple as well could void a claim under the same circumstances. I'm not saying that you did or did not modify the device, but you could try and talk to a supervisor there and make another request. You can also try and contact Apple by obtaining a number with this support document and describe your problem. http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

I assume you will need to install Basler's CCT+ to configure the camera framerate via the serial interface of CL. To enable serial communication via CL you have to open MAX, go to Tools>NI Vision> Select CLSer Nat Systems.

PCIe 1429 failed to load ICD file

Dear everyone
I have a NI PCIe-1429 frame grabber and a Basler acA2000-340km camera ,but the NI measurement & automation explorer 5.3.1 failed to load the ICD file of this camera even all the Basler acA2000 series and just give me a message as
"Error 0xBFF60108
the camera file does not support the current interface type."
However, it can load the other ICD files normally.I had used a Basler A504k camera,it was working normally.
All the NI softwares and drivers are the latest.
Can anyone give me a solution to resolve the problem?

I don't think that hardware supports the Basler camera. Have a look over here:
www.ni.com/camera/
You might be better off contacting Basler or NI to see if they have a camera file that supports that camera for the framegrabber you are using.

XP64 driver for a PCIe 1429 frame grabber

Hi,
I want to use a PCIe 1429 framergrabber in A Dell 5400 2 cpu quad core machine. We installed win xp64 and LV 8.2 (32 bit).
We tried to install NI vision acqusition 8.5.1 and all it says "This driver does not support any operating system prior to windows vista" Installing vista is not a good option because our university does not support this. We use MAX 4.1 and NI IMAQ 4.0 Is there a way to solve this problem?

It may not be the most attractive option, but depending on your reason for having XP64, downgrading to XP 32-bit might solve your problem.
The issue is this - in order for our drivers to work with a 64-bit OS, their kernel-mode components need to be 64-bit. Our 64-bit components have not been tested with XP64, so it sounds like our installer prevents you from installing them there. If you installed the driver on a 32-bit OS, you would get the 32-bit kernel-mode component, which is tested and should work fine with XP.
I realize you might have good reason for having XP64 (such as having more than 4 GB of RAM installed), but unfortunately I am not aware of any other solutions. Perhaps someone else might have other ideas.

Missing pin from the VGA connector of a 17" CRT monitor that came with G4?

Hi, everyone. Regarding the 17" CRT monitor that came with the G4 "Sawtooth", should the VGA connector that plugs into the video card be missing a pin? On the connector of my monitor, there are 5 pins on the top row, 4 pins (instead of 5) on the middle row, and 5 pins on the bottom row. There appears to be a pin missing from the middle row.

PCIe-1429 camera files for work with Basler spL4096-70km line camera

Hi, please help with configuring my frame grabber.
Can I find camera files for PCIe-1429, working with Basler spL4096-70km line camera ?
now generating it with NI Camera File Generator, but when checking image with MAX -
getting error if configuring with 4096 pixels,
no error if with 2048, but! I want to get the full resolution (camera
has 2 segments of 2048 pixels, 12 bit pixel depth).
Settings snip attached - please help - what is wrong? (I'm new here )
Thank you,

Hi Bruce,
This is Amitai from National Instruments Israel,
Allow me to enter this conversation.
Since you have a similar camera and working, I will be happy to get advises from you in order to help Sveta.
I have contacted Sveta today, and used remote desktop connection to try your suggestion and others.
We have used the Basler Vision Technologies spL4096-70km camera file -
http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/nipc.product?pid=11075&asid=1102
and we have changed the "InterfaceInfo" manualy in the text file, and reciceved the error : #0xBFF60056 Requested attribute is invalid.
We then followed this KB - http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9757373FEE86D64B862573CA004FD752?OpenDocument
and edited the "Supported Image Acquisition Devices" to PCIe-1429.
See cameraSettings.jpg file attached.
You can also see in the file, that the "PCIe-1429 Full configuration Camera Link" is grayed out.
I am wondering why ... is it because this is the only frame grabber that is connected to the PC ? or is it because there is some issue with this frame grabber and this camera attributes ?
Following your advise earlier in the post, we chose the "2 tap interlaced vertically" Orientation.
We had success when setting smaller Acquisition windows (for example 800x1024 or 512x2 see jpeg attachments) and when we tried to reach the camera attributes 4096x2 (http://www.baslerweb.com/products/sprint.html?model=253) we got an acquisition timeout notification.
see time-out.jpg attached.
The NI-PCI-1433/5 has a 850 MB/s of bandwidth while the NI-PCIe-1429 has a 680 MB/s of bandwidth.
Sampling 2x4096 (which is the camera attribute that Sveta is trying to achieve) at 12-bit per pixel and with 55 fps equals 680MB/s.
Do you think the bandwidth difference can be the issue ?

JFP1 pin Assignment on E7505 Master LS2 MSI-9121

Hi
I have a E7505 Master LS2 MSI-9121 pulled from an IBM xseries 225 tower. The mobo is non-standard in that it has an additional JFP1 connector header consisting of 8 pins in line, near the battery, which are for the front panel + leds (so i read from the IBM manual but that is all it tells me). The MSI manual does not mention JFP1. The standard JFP2 & JFP3 front panel headers are not present on this mobo.
I need to know the pin assignments for the 8 pins on the JFP1 connector.
There is also a 2 pin header adjacent to JFP1. What is this for?
Also there is an additional connector near the IDE connectors and two jumpers that are also non standard. What do these do? Thx.

Sorry but you'll have to check with IBM for what you need. MSI nor this forum offer support for OEM such as what you have which was made to IBM specs.
due to OEM part.
