The serial-in, parallel-out (SIPO) module converts the Photon's serial digital data output into a parallel data format for use with a frame grabber. The SIPO mates directly to the I/O module's digital data port, and furnishes a high-density 68-pin connector that can be interfaced to a compatible frame grabber via one of two optional digital data cables.
One frame grabber option is the National Instruments IMAQ PCI-1422 (LVDS) board using digital interface cable part number 308-0013-00. Another frame grabber option is the Bit Flow RoadRunner Model 14-M board using digital interface cable part number 308-0016-00-03. Both of these computer-based frame grabber boards require third-party software not offered or supported by FLIR.
FLIR supplies camera setup files for both the IMAQ and Bit Flow frame grabber boards, but FLIR does not formally support their use, nor do we claim or guarantee that these setup files will be suitable for any particular use or application. Refer to Software Updates
