配置 CXP-12 接口卡#
信息
This topic covers basic use cases. For in-depth information about the software features of the interface card, see the acquisition applets PDF documentation.
在以下情况下配置接口卡特别有用:
- 您要更改接口卡使用的小程序。
- 希望通过接口卡触发连接的 Basler boost CXP-12 相机。
- 希望对接口卡执行去马赛克处理以提高成像系统的性能。
- 希望使用相机不可用的输出格式,例如 16 位单色格式。
- 您要配置接口卡接收或发送的触发信号。
Limitation
In all applets, buffers larger than 4 GB can't be allocated. Even if the applet allows a larger buffer size, you can't allocate buffers larger than 4 GB due to limitations in the driver and firmware.
You can calculate the buffer size as follows:
Buffer size = image height * image width * (pixel width / 8).
For RGB images: buffer size = (image height * image width * (pixel width / 8)) * 3 .

选择正确的小程序#
如果您仅使用单通道 (1-CXP) 相机,则默认小程序始终对您可用,您无需进行更改。
但是,如果您使用的是多通道(例如,2-CXP 或 4-CXP)相机,则您必须选择适合您相机设置的合适小程序。否则,相机将无法正常工作或相机性能可能会明显降低。
具体哪个小程序是正确的,取决于相机数量、每台相机的通道数量,以及所需的 ROI 步长。
ROI 步长取决于图像预处理的并行度,因此随相机和图像采集卡而变化。

使用接口卡触发 Basler boost CXP-12 相机#
信息
仅当您特别想通过接口卡触发相机时,此部分才有意义。一般是通过相机的 I/O 连接器触发相机。有关更多信息,请参见触发图像采集。
硬件触发(外部)#
启用外部触发后,您可以将触发输入信号发送到接口卡,然后接口卡将这些信号转发到 Basler boost 相机。
要配置接口卡以进行外部硬件触发,请执行以下操作:
- 设置
AreaTriggerMode
parameter toExternal
. - 设置
TriggerInSource
parameter to the desired "Front GPI" input line.
For example, if you want to use GPI0 (pin 11 and 12 on the interface card) for external triggering, set the parameter toFrontGpiTriggerSource0
. - 设置
TriggerCameraOutSelect
parameter to the corresponding "Bypass" option.
For example, if you selectedFrontGpiTriggerSource0
, set theTriggerCameraOutSelect
parameter toBypassFrontGpi0
. - 设置
TriggerState
parameter toActive
. - 如有必要,按如下所述配置触发信号。
All trigger signals will be forwarded to the camera's source signals CxpTrigger0
and CxpTrigger1
. The signals can be used for various purposes. The most common use case is image acquisition. See the example below.
硬件触发(内部)#
启用内部触发后,接口卡将在内部以指定频率生成触发信号。所有外部触发信号将被忽略。
要配置接口卡以进行内部硬件触发,请执行以下操作:
- 设置
AreaTriggerMode
parameter toGenerator
. - 设置
TriggerOutputFrequency
parameter to the desired trigger output frequency. For example, if you set the parameter to 8, the interface card will generate 8 trigger signals per second. - 设置
TriggerCameraOutSelect
parameter to the desired output line, e.g.,PulseGenerator0
. - 设置
TriggerState
parameter toActive
.
现在,无论何时开始图像采集,接口卡都会以指定的频率生成触发信号。
All trigger signals will be forwarded to the camera's source signals CxpTrigger0
and CxpTrigger1
. The signals can be used for various purposes. The most common use case is image acquisition. See the example below.
示例:使用触发信号进行图像采集#
要使用接口卡生成的外部或内部触发信号来采集图像,请执行以下操作:
- On the camera, set the
TriggerSelector
parameter toFrameStart
. - 设置
TriggerMode
parameter to在
. - 设置
曝光模式
parameter toTimed
. - 设置
TriggerSource
parameter toCxpTrigger0
或CxpTrigger1
.
现在,相机将在接口每次接收或生成触发信号时收集图像。
信息
You can use the trigger signals as the source for any Basler boost camera feature that can be controlled by a signal source. For example, setting the CounterTriggerSource
parameter to CxpTrigger0
allows you to control the Counter feature using the interface card.
在接口卡上执行去马赛克处理#
使用 CXP-12 Interface Card 1C,您可以在接口卡上执行去马赛克处理。这样可以减少相机和主机上的计算负载。
为此:
- Start the pylon Viewer and open a connection to the interface card and the camera.
- Use the feature tree to make the following settings:
- On the camera, set the Pixel Format option to a Bayer pixel format, e.g., Bayer RG 12.
- Navigate to Device Transport Layer and disable the Automatic Format Control option.
This allows you to set the output format independently of the pixel format used by the camera. - On the interface card, set the OutputFormat option to the corresponding RGB pixel format.
The bit depth must be three times the bit depth of the Bayer pixel format. For example, Bayer RG 12 (camera) = Color 36 bit (interface card).
现在,接口卡将对相机的原始图像数据执行去马赛克处理并输出 RGB 图像数据。
信息
确保在上面的步骤 3 中设置了正确的 RGB pixel format。否则,将无法正确采集图像。
使用相机上不可用的输出格式#
Basler boost 相机可以输出多种 pixel format 的图像数据,例如 Bayer RG 8 或 RBG 8。有关更多信息,请参见 pixel format 主题。
如果相机上未提供所需的 pixel format,并且您还希望避免在主机上进行图像转换,则可以使用接口卡提供的一种 pixel format。
接口卡提供以下格式:
Gray8bit | Gray10bit | Gray12bit | Gray16bit |
Color24bit | Color30bit | Color36bit | Color48bit |
Bayergr8 | Bayergr10 | Bayergr12 | Bayergr16 |
Bayerrg8 | Bayerrg10 | Bayerrg12 | Bayerrg16 |
Bayergb8 | Bayergb10 | Bayergb12 | Bayergb16 |
Bayerbg8 | Bayerbg10 | Bayerbg12 | Bayerbg16 |
要使用相机上不可用的输出格式,请执行以下操作:
- On the camera, set the
PixelFormat
parameter to the desired camera pixel format, e.g.,Mono12
. - On the interface card, set the
AutomaticFormatControl
parameter tofalse
.
This allows you to set the output format independently of the pixel format used by the camera. - On the interface card, set the
Format
parameter to the desired output format, e.g.,Gray16bit
.
使用上面的示例值,接口卡将基于 12 位相机图像数据输出 16 位图像数据。如下所示插入填充位(零)。
Configuring the Trigger Signals Using the gpioTool#
使用 gpioTool 命令行工具,可以配置接口卡接收或发送的触发信号的物理属性:
- 可以将输入线路配置为接收单端或差分信号。
- 可以将输入线路配置为在上拉或下拉模式下工作。
- 可以指定是否应将输出信号反相。
The gpioTool is included in the pylon Software Suite.
要启动该工具,请执行以下操作:
- 打开命令提示符窗口 (Windows) 或“终端”窗口 (Linux)。
-
更改至 pylon 安装的 bin 目录:
- Windows(64 位):%programfiles%\Basler\pylon x\Runtime\x64\pylonCXP\bin
- Windows(32 位):%programfiles%\Basler\pylon x\Runtime\Win32\pylonCXP\bin
- Linux:/opt/pylon/lib/pylonCXP/bin
-
使用如下所述的选项启动 gpioTool。
选项#
可以使用如下选项:
-b [board_index]
Specify which CXP-12 Interface Card in your system you want to address. This parameter is mandatory for all options except -h
.
The value range of [board_index]
is the index numbers of all CXP-12 Interface Card boards installed in your system. If you only have one CXP-12 Interface Card in your system, set [board_index]
to 0.
-b [board_index] -g
Show the current GPIO bank settings of the CXP-12 Interface Card specified.
-b [board_index] -v
Show the current GPIO bank settings with verbose output.
-b [board_index] -s [bank]:[settings]
Configure the GPIO bank on the CXP-12 Interface Card specified.
[bank]
specifies the index number of the GPIO bank. On the CXP Interface Card 1C, exactly one GPIO bank (the front GPIO) is available. Therefore, always set [bank]
to 0.
[settings]
configures the settings. See below.
-h
Show help.
设置#
For the [settings]
part in -b [board_index] -s [bank]:[settings]
, the following settings are available:
设置 | 值 | 结果 |
---|---|---|
[signal] | se | 将输入线路配置为接收单端信号。 |
[signal] | ds | 将输入线路配置为接收差分信号。 |
[pull-up-down] | pu | 将输入线路配置为在上拉模式下工作。a |
[pull-up-down] | pd | 将输入线路配置为在下拉模式下工作。a |
[inversion] | ni | 禁用输出线路的反转。 |
[inversion] | in | 启用输出线路的反转。 |
-
在大多数应用程序中,您需要配置此模式。接口卡激活一个 10 kΩ 的上拉电阻,以接收来自 NPN 晶体管(集电极开路、漏极开路)的信号。
-
接口卡会激活一个 10 kΩ 的下拉电阻,以接收来自 PNP 晶体管(发射极开路、开源)的信号。
You must enter the settings in the following format: [signal],[pull-up-down],[inversion]
. Example: ds,pu,ni
Alternatively, you can set [settings]
to default
. This resets the configuration of a GPIO bank.
示例#
gpioTool -b 0 -s 0:ds,pu,ni
此命令按以下方式配置接口卡:
-b 0
: Configure the GPIOs on board 0.-s
: Start the actual configuration.0:
: Configure GPIO bank 0 (front GPIO).ds,pu,ni
: Configure the front GPIO to receive differential signals (ds), to work in pull-up mode (pu), and to send the outgoing signals not inverted (ni).
重置配置#
To reset a board and GPIO bank to the default settings, start the gpioTool with [settings]
set to default
:
gpioTool -b [board_index] -s [bank]:default
示例: gpioTool -b 0 -s 0:default
