PYTHON Family Sensor
Evaluation Kit Quick
Start Guide
This guide will help you get up and running using the
PYTHON Family of CMOS Image Sensors with the
ON Semiconductor G3 Evaluation Hardware and Sensor
Studio II Software.
Before You Start
•Evaluation Hardware and Supported Image Sensor
Verify that you have the required hardware for the
sensor being evaluated:
♦G3 FPGA board
♦Imager head board for the sensor being evaluated
♦Optional lens mount kit
•Sensor Studio II Software
The most recent version can be downloaded at
www.onsemi.com
•USB
USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 are supported.
•Computer
Windows 7 32/64 Bit. 2+ GHz processor, 2+ GB RAM,
USB 3.0/2.0 connection.
•Power Supply
12 V DC, 2 A, with 2.1 mm center positive DC power
jack.
•Cables
2 meter USB 3.0 cable with Type A on the host end and
micro 3.0 on the hardware end is included with the kit.
•Lens
A C/CS mount lens holder is provided with the kit. For
larger optics, an F−mount is available in the optional
Lens Mount Kit.
•Table−top Tripod (recommended)
Install Software
Sensor Studio II software is available in both 32-bit and
64-bit versions. Install the software by running the
appropriate “setup.exe” file, and check the boxes for
installing the USB 3.0 drivers if they have never been
installed.
Note that the 64-bit version of the USB3 driver currently
is not digitally signed. For proper installation, press the F8
key during bootup to access Advanced Boot Options, and
select Disable Driver Signature Enforcement.
Consult PleaseReadBeforeInstall.pdf, which comes with
the SensorStudio installer, for more information.
Assemble Evaluation Hardware
•Install image sensor on image sensor headboard making
sure that the image sensor is in the proper orientation.
•If using lens mount kit, assemble the appropriate
configuration for the optic you intend to use (C or F).
(see instructions provided in the kit)
•Plug the headboard into the G3 Capture Card and
secure with card guide clips provided.
•If using the 1/4−20 mounting feature on the G3 Frame,
ensure that your mounting screw does not contact the
bottom side of the FPGA circuit board.
•Plug in power and communications cables
With the Evaluation Kit powered off, insert the USB
cable into your PC. Insert the power plug into the
receptacle on the Imager/FPGA board. Turn on the
Power. Use Device Manager to verify “Truesense
USB3” seen by the system.
Run Sensor Studio II
•Shortcut
To properly configure the shortcut icon, right click,
choose properties and then select the compatibility tab.
Set the OS for your OS and enable “run as admin”.
The latter is needed if you install Sensor Studio II in the
standard Program Files area which is owned by admin.
•Launch Program
Double click the Sensor Studio II desktop icon to
launch the software.
•Select Plugin
Click the plugin button . Then choose the correct
plugin in the list:
♦Use PYTHON480 for PYTHON480 device
♦Use PYTHON48 for PYTHON 300/500/1300/2000/
5000 devices
♦Use PYTHONxK for PYTHON 10K/12K/16K/25K
devices
♦An image display window and the control GUI will
appear on the screen

•Connect to Hardware
♦Select the “Connection” tab within the control GUI
♦Click the Connect button
♦The yellow indicator will change to green indicating
that a connection has been established. The system is
now ready to image. If there is a failure, the status
box will turn red displaying an error message with
more information.
Next Steps
Sensor Studio II provides a number of controls to evaluate
operation of the sensor, including image capture,
processing, and characterization.
Additional information on these controls is included in the
Sensor Studio II help system, which is available from the
HELP menu by selecting “SS2 and Python Help”.
