PRELIMINARY DRAFT
1Overview
Describes power requirements, thermal management, interface specifications, and connector pinouts
for the 1750-OEM video processing board.
CAUTION: Any customer modifications to SightLine OEM and adapter boards will void the warranty and can
potentially damage the board. Before attempting any modifications, please contact Support.
1.1 Additional Support Documentation
Additional Engineering Application Notes (EANs) can be found on the Documentation page of the
SightLine Applications website.
The Panel Plus User Guide provides a complete overview of settings and dialog windows. It can be
accessed from the Help menu of the Panel Plus application.
The Interface Command and Control (IDD)describes the native communications protocol used by the
SightLine Applications product line. The IDD is also available as a PDF download on the Software
Downloads page.
1.2 Sightline Software Requirements
Panel Plus software and firmware versions:
1750-OEM requires Panel Plus and Firmware 3.6.x and higher.
IMPORTANT: Starting with 3.6.x software and above, only the 4000 and 1700 platforms will be
supported. The 1500 and 3000 platforms will continue to be supported in 3.5.x software. Some
features in 3.6.x and above may not be available on 1500 and 3000 platforms.
IMPORTANT: The Panel Plus software version should match the firmware version running on the
board. Firmware and Panel Plus software versions are available on the Software Download page.
2Safe Device Handling
CAUTION: To prevent damage to hardware boards, disconnect all input power to OEMs and adapter boards before
connecting or disconnecting cables including all FFC, FPC, KEL, HDMI, MIPI, and round wire (Molex) cables.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to hardware boards, use a conductive wrist strap attached to a good earth ground.
Before picking up an ESD sensitive electronic component, discharge built up static by touching a grounded bare
metal surface or approved antistatic mat.

31750-OEM Overview
The 1750-OEM has 10 connectors and one microSD card slot. Connectors are used to connect power,
Ethernet, Serial ports, MIPI input, HDMI output, USB3, and digital video in (with the use of a 3000-
adapter board).

3.4 Customer Integration - Key Points
✓Provide a sufficient heat sink for the i.MX 8M processor and other major components. Close
attention to heatsinking is critical. See the Thermal Management section for more information.
✓Expose Ethernet port (on J1) to an accessible connector for debug, command and control, and
firmware update capability.
✓For in-system recovery, it is recommended to expose the USB programming/debugging port to a
system accessible connector.
✓If you are designing a custom system interface board with the 1750-SOM contact SightLine
Hardware Engineering prior to design for assistance.
4Thermal Management
4.1 Heatsink Guidelines
IMPORTANT: Close attention to heatsinking is critical.
SightLine screens and certifies all 1750-OEM units through the component temperature range of -40°
to 85°C.
All hardware requires some form of mechanical heatsink.
Customers must design a heatsink in conjunction with their system integration effort. It should provide
a direct conducted path to a significant thermal mass (the wall of a gimbal or housing) or use an active
cooling (fans) that has proven to be successful in cases where a full thermal analysis is not performed.
The 1750-OEM typical power consumption is less than 3 W @ 12V. System settings provide an option
for a low power mode with no video output but power, see EAN-Performance-and-Latency for more
information.

IMPORTANT: The internal temperature, reported in Panel Plus, should not exceed +85°C (185°F) or
the SOM processor will start to reduce clock speed and eventually shut down. Internal high
temperatures for extended periods can cause permanent damage.
4.2 Gap Pads
Use some form of thermally conductive material for filling gaps between the hot components and the
heat sink. Examples such as the TGlobal TG-A6200 Ultra Soft Thermal Conductive Pad (6W/mK or
higher) are recommended.
The compression of the pad allows for greater mounting tolerances. The compression of the gap pad
also provides additional support for the board and does not require as much force to maintain contact.

provides camera power and camera configuration through I2C. For details on supported MIPI cameras
and formats see EAN-MIPI-Cameras.
The MIPI port can also be used to connect SightLine Video Input adapter boards through the 1750-MIPI
adapter board. For details on the 1750-MIPI and Video Input Boards, see the ICD-Adapter-Boards.

6.2.2 Serial Port and I2C Speed and Data Limits
Serial ports 2 and 8 are controlled over an I2C bus using an I2C to serial bridge chip, while the other
serial ports are native from the processor. All serial ports can communicate at speeds up to 921.6kbps.
The I2C bus default speed is 400 kHz. The 1750 I2C-5 bus speed can be changed from the default 400
kHz to 1 MHz, but care must be taken to ensure that all devices on the I2C bus support this speed. See
EAN-GPIO-and-I2C for assistance on setting the I2C bus speed.

8.1 GPIO Software Cross Reference
All GPIO pins have both a schematic name (e.g., GPIO1) as well as a Linux port name that can be used
for control through the operating system (e.g., GPIO129). GPIO pins are referenced by schematic name
and Linux port name, e.g., GPIO1 (Linux GPIO129).
GPIOs are used to identify the camera adapter board address attached to connectors J6 (1750-OEM) or
J8 (J10 on SLA-4000-MIPI board). See the Camera Input Adapter Board ID table in ICD-Adapter-Boards
for a list of camera input adapter boards and IDs. See Connector Descriptions for more general-purpose
IO information.

Connector:
Appears in software as:
J6 (3000-Adapter board 80 Pin)
Camera 0 (Cam 0)
J8 (MIPI - 28 pin Basler style)
Camera 1 (Cam 1)
J5 USB3 (USB camera)
Camera 2 (Cam 2)
10 Video Input Port J6 Details (Cam 0)
When acquiring video, a set of adapter boards are available to convert popular video signals to parallel
digital video for input to the J6 video input port. For specific details see ICD-OEM-Camera Side
Interfaces. Parallel video can be acquired using an adapter board that accepts FFC and FPC cable types.
Mating adapter boards are available that attach to specific camera types (Boson, Airborne, etc.). For
more information see the ICD-OEM-Camera-Side-Interfaces for cable instructions and precautions.
See the Video Input Port J6 Details (Cam 0) section in ICD-4000-OEM for camera input details and
supported formats. The 1750-OEM processor will support the same interfaces and formats as the
4000-OEM except BT.656, which is not currently supported on the 1750-OEM.
11 MIPI Port J8 (Cam 1)
The MIPI port provides an interface directly connecting MIPI cameras to the 4000-OEM. This port
provides camera power and camera configuration through I 2C. For details on supported MIPI cameras
and formats see EAN-MIPI-Cameras.
The MIPI port can also be used to connect SightLine Video Input adapter boards through the 4000-MIPI
adapter board. For details on the 4000-MIPI and Video Input Boards, see ICD-OEM-Camera-Side
Interfaces.
The MIPI port supported cameras and formats are the same as the 4000-OEM –Please see the MIPI
Port J9 (Cam 1) section in the ICD-4000-OEM for details.
