102 • Using Nano with Sapera API Nano Series GigE Vision Camera
Quick Test with CamExpert (Windows)
When the Genie Nano camera is connected to a Gigabit network adapter on a host computer,
testing the installation with CamExpert is a straightforward procedure.
• Start Sapera CamExpert by double clicking the desktop icon created during the software
installation.
• CamExpert will search for installed Sapera devices. In the Device list area on the left side,
the connected Nano camera is shown or will be listed in a few seconds after CamExpert
completes the automatic device search (device discovery).
• Select the Nano camera device by clicking on the camera user defined name. By default the
Nano camera is identified by its serial number. The Nano status LED will turn green,
indicating the CamExpert application is now connected.
• Click on the Grab button for live acquisition (the Nano default is Free Running mode). Focus
and adjust the lens iris. See Operational Reference for information on CamExpert
parameters with the Nano camera.
• If the Nano has no lens, just select one of the internal test patterns available (Image
Format Controls – Test Image Selector). All but one are static images to use with the Snap
or Grab function of CamExpert. The single “moving” test image is a shifting diagonal ramp
pattern, which is useful for testing network/computer bandwidth issues (see following
image).
• Refer to the Teledyne DALSA Network Imaging package manual if error messages are
shown in the Output Messages pane while grabbing.
