5 Programming VC72XX Smart Cameras
5.1 General settings
Programming the VC72XX cameras requires at least the VCRT library version 5.30.8.
5.2 Compiling and linking with the VC72XX cameras
It is advised to build your C-code as relocatable code (standard setting in the VC template Code
Composer project files from VCRT 5.29). In this case VCRT manages the program memory allocation
by itself (see Programming Tutorial for more details).
For customers who prefer absolute linking, please pay attention to the fact that the memory start
address of the VC72XX has changed in comparison to previous VC cameras. In your link file, replace
the memory section with this one:
MEMORY
{
PMEM: o = 080100000h l = 100000h /* intended for initialization */
BMEM: o = 080090000h l = 40000h /* .bss, .system, .stack, .cinit */
}
5.3 Image Acquisition
The CMOS sensors of the VC72XX cameras allow, like on the VC nano Series, extra features like:
- partial scanning
- 2x / 4x image binning
For demo programs showing those features, please have a look at the Demo Programs section in
the Download Center of our website, or contact our support at support@vision-components.com.
