Safety Warnings (Mandatory)

  • Never install or remove the board while the system is powered on, which will damage the board, motherboard or camera directly.
  • Use ESD protection before touching the board to release human static electricity and prevent component damage.
  • Do not store or transport the product in places with water splashing, direct sunlight, strong electric/magnetic field and severe vibration.
  • Use matching 100G fiber cables and external I/O adapter cables, non-original accessories may cause transmission failure.

Quick Start Guide

  1. Install the driver: Get HelloFPGA_RunTime driver package from technical support and install it on the host.
  2. Double-click ImaGrab.exe to open the graphical debugging software (download the latest version from official website).
  3. Connect the device: Click [Refresh Device] to scan the capture card and mounted CoaXPress camera, double-click the target camera to connect.
  4. Set camera parameters: Adjust ROI (Width/Height), ExposureTime, TriggerMode, External I/O function in the property tree panel.
  5. Start image acquisition: Click [Continuous Acquisition] to start real-time image streaming and view FPS and resolution in the preview window.
  6. Data saving & playback: Use [Save Image] (BMP/JPG/PNG) or [Record Video] (.bin) for data acquisition; load .bin files via [File]→[Create Playback System] for frame-by-frame playback.
