Dewesoft Video Acquisition
Video acquisition in Dewesoft X
Dewesoft X video acquisition module offers the possibility to acquire video signals together with other sources. A wide range of
cameras are supported:
Low-speed cameras (up to 30 FPS): any DirectX compatible camera
Medium speed cameras (up to 600 FPS VGA resolution): Dewesoft DS-CAM cameras
High-speed cameras (up to 20.000 FPS at VGA resolution): where we combine data and video in post-processing or directly
use the Photron driver inside Dewesoft X (please consult the user's manual for details)
Thermovision cameras: Optris thermovision cameras
Required hardware Sirius, Dewe-43, Webcam, DS-CAM
Required software Prof (for DS-CAM support)
Setup sample rate At least 1 kHz

Dewesoft cameras
For applications requiring video which is truly synchronized to the dynamic sample rate, there is support for DS cameras. A high-
quality image with the automatic shutter speed (selectable) is controlled directly by the A/D card, which generates a pulse to drive
the camera. The result is a stunning correlation between each frame and the data.
Thermo cameras are supported by Optris, and Ultra-High-Speed cameras from Photron can acquire more than 2 million frames per
second but in limited resolution.

Applications
All DS-CAM cameras were designed to be high-shock and vibration resistant.
The DS-CAM cameras can run in triggered (sync) and free-run mode. The video is captured by real-time data streaming, even at full
resolution! Therefore, a Gigabit-Ethernet port is required.
The system requirements for GigE cameras are:
Gigabit Ethernet LAN port
Dewesoft X
(Clock possibility)
Core2Duo CPU
The applications at which the cameras are used:
machine diagnostic
product quality check
non-destructive testing
research and development
automotive crash testing
impact tests
logistics and transportation
manufacturing
Specifications
If you have multiple DS-CAM cameras, we can provide adapters for syncing, powering, and connecting multiple cameras to
Dewesoft instruments.
CAM-BOX
Adapter box for connecting one DS-CAM-88/120 to the Dewesoft instrument. Combines Sync and Power to the camera connector.
CAM-BOX1
4
Adapter box for connecting up to 4 DS-CAM-88/120 to the Dewesoft instrument. Combines Sync and Power to the camera
connector. External GigE switch required.
CAM-BOX2
Distribution box for connecting up to 4 x DS-CAM-88/120 to the Dewesoft instrument. Wide range power supply input (9-36 VDC),
integrated GigE switch.
CAM-BOX3
Distribution box for connecting up to 4 x DS-CAM-600 to the Dewesoft instrument. Wide range power supply input (9-36 VDC),
integrated GigE switch with 4 x PoE; SIRIUS chassis with 1.5 U height.

3rd party camera support
If your application requires video you are not limited to using our own DS-CAM cameras.
Dewesoft X software supports all compatible Direct X cameras as well as 3rd party Optris thermal and Ultra-High-Speed cameras
from Photron. See the complete list of supported cameras. All camera sources are synchronized to analog data.

DS-CAM-88c, DS-CAM-120c
The DS-CAM-88c/DS-CAM-120c are high-speed Gigabit-Ethernet cameras with the following key data:
DS-CAM-120c: 120 fps @ VGA (640x480)
DS-CAM-88c: 88 fps @ VGA (640x480)
Color
Auto-gain
Auto-shutter (also fixed shutter possible)
Auto-white balance
Triggered and free-run mode
Standard C-Mount
Small compact form factor
Low power consumption
Ruggedized (high-shock and vibration resistant, aluminum housing)
Real-time data streaming with full resolution
The camera supports the high-performance industrial standard GigE Vision. The standard introduced in 2006 provides a framework
for transmitting high-speed video and related control over Ethernet networks.
The benefits are high-speed data transfer rates up to 1GBit/s (based on 1000Base-T) connectable to every standard GigE Ethernet
port and cable lengths up to 100m.
Dewesoft uses OptoStream SDK for GigE communication with cameras that support the GigE Vision standard.
Important: For best performance, we recommended using an SSD for storing data. A disk write rate of 100 MByte/s should be
established, especially if using more than 1 camera!
System requirements:
1 Gigabit-Ethernet port
Good PC performance (Core i5 CPU or better recommended, 4 GB RAM)
