Special handling instructions

he circuit board contains CMOS circuitry that is sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge

(ESD).

Special care should be taken in handling, transporting, and installing circuit board to

prevent ESD damage to the board. In particular:

•Do not remove the circuit board from its protective anti-static bag until you

are ready to install the board into the enclosure.

•

Handle the circuit board only at grounded, ESD protected stations.

•Remove power from the equipment before installing or removing the circuit

board.

Introduction

Model 810 is a PCI-Express 4-channel fra e/video capture device, designed for the

applications requiring broadcast-grade video quality and high capture rate fro ultiple

input video channels. It supports capturing fro NTSC/PAL/SECAM video sources.

For the need of audio capturing, Model 810 provides four channels of stereo or

onochro e audio capturing associated with four channels of video respectively.

Also, as designated as a broadcast grade product, it supports VBI (Vertical Blanking

Interval) like used for Closed Caption or Teletext applications.

For each video channel, the capturing fra e rate is up to 30 fps for NTSC and 25 fps for

PAL. It akes total fra e/video capturing rate up to 120 fps for NTSC and 100 fps for

PAL. The capturing resolution can be fro followings: D1.N (NTSC), D1.P (PAL), VGA,

QVGA, QQVGA, SIF, 2SIF, 4SIF, CIF, QCIF, SQCIF, 4CIF.

Associated with each channel, general digital I/O signals are provided, for the control

and/or alar ing purpose.

A single +3.3V power supply through PCI-Express bus is required to power the board.

Model 810 i ple ents a single-lane (x1) PCI-Express interface. It can be plugged into a

PCI Express slot of any width.

Software

Device Driver and SDK

Device driver and SDK including driver API & de o application progra s are available

for both Windows and Linux.

Windows

Sensoray Co. provides Model 810 WDM driver and DirectX filter for Windows platfor .

The SDK includes the Windows driver, DLL, De o application & source code, etc. It is

packaged in a “s811_v1xx.zip” file for distribution and/or for custo er(s) to download

fro Sensoray’s website.

Refer to the “Model 811/810 Windows SDK User’s Manual” for the SDK, DLL, API, and

progra ing details.

Since the driver is built and based on the WDM BDA and DirectShow oriented

architecture, the Microsoft GraphEdit utility can be used for building live A/V preview

and/or capturing application. Also, 3

party OSS/freeware/shareware like VLC player,

AMCap, MPC (Media Player Classic), and VirtualDub software can be used for still/live

video capturing and/or preview.

Linux

The device driver for Linux is natively provided by kernel.org and co es with ost

co only used or popular Linux distributions. The API co plies with standard V4L2

(Video for Linux Version 2), for erly known as V4L (Video for Linux). The API spec and

capturing sa ple progra can be downloaded fro following websites:

http://v4l2spec.bytesex.org/

http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/video4linux/API/V4L2_API/spec-single/v4l2.ht l

In addition to the application sa ples fro V4L/V4L2, Sensoray Co. provides custo ized

capturing sa ple/de o progra s and HOW-TO type of app/instruction notes for the

Model 810/811, upon custo er’s requests.

For live video preview or capturing, co only used V4L application progra s like

XawTV and TV-Ti e can be used for capturing/previewing fro each channel of the

Model 810/811.

For capturing JPEG fra e, MPEG-1/2/4, H.264 or MJPEG video, 3

party’s or OSS

libraries or CODECs can be used and integrated in the application progra s. As a good

exa ple, FFMPEG is a well-know and highly reco ended OSS that can be used for the

Model 810/811. Sensoray Co. provides an allocation note on how to use co and-line

based FFMPEG to capture A/V (Video or Audio).
