1. Introduction

PCIe-OPT01 is used with EMB-OPT01 together. It is a Fiber receiver board. Received Fiber data from

EMB-OPT01 transmits to host.

The boards acquire images in real time and directly transferred to the system memory. Easy a

nd fast installation method is suitable for the image transfer device to meet the needs of the in

dustry for cost-effective.

DAQ system provides a sample program to use the board briefly so you can test the API prov

ided insource form, so the user can be used to modify. Please refer to Chapter 4 for a detailed

description of this sample program.

PCIe-OPT01 board uses two SFP (Small Form Factor Pluggable) optical-module. Down side port

(CN2) supports Base Camera Link Configuration, and above pages (CN1) port supports Base Camera

Link Configuration or Full / Medium Camera Link Configuration with CN2 port.

It has a supportable design structure for other interface(DVI, HD-SDI, MIPI) to use flexible FPGA logic.

2.2 SFP(Small Form Factor Pluggable)

PCIe-OPT01 uses two SFP for Fiber-Transmission Transceiver device. SFP

Transmitter/Receiver devices are designed to support various Fiber Transmission like SONET,

Gigabit Ethernet, Fiber Channel. It supports Hot-pluggable transceiver, can connect to network

device motherboard through fiber or copper networking cable.

The SFP module that connects to the connector is connected to the cage with Tx (Transceiver)

and Rx (Receiver).

2.3 Fiber-Optic Cable

Optical cable is a transmission cable to transmit away the converted laser signal.

There are two transfer modes.

Single Mode : The core diameter 9㎛ are used to broadband and long-reach transmission,

approximately it is possible to tandem-free transmission 50Km. When the core

diameter is small single-mode, it is difficult for cable passage to convey large

amounts of information. However, it is possible to transmit up to distances. The

color of the cable is used to primarily yellow.

Multi Mode : The core diameter 50~ 100 ㎛ are used to short-reach transmission. It is

possible to transfer a lot of information because core diameter is large. The color

of the cable is used to primarily orange

There are LC, ST, MTRJ, SC, FC, MU type in the optical connector.

PCIe-OPT01 is used primarily as a multi-mode LC Type [Fig 2-4].



[Fig 2-3. Transmission Mode]

(1) Single Mode LC Type (2) Multi Mode LC Type

[Fig 2-4. Cable Type]



P.S) The most important factor in the optical cable selection can be found in the communicati

on distance. Multimode cable is the maximum transmission distance 2Km, Single-mode cabl

e which is basically a configuration that provides cable when the transmission distance acc

ording to the type of equipment is more than the transmission distance 2Km.

Communication using light, basically use 2Core. (RX-1 CORE, TX-1 CORE)

Therefore, be careful connection when you connect the board in 2Core of fiber optic cable

as shown in the following figure.

Channel #0

caution ) Be careful, not to twist the cables.



2.4 Main Connector Pin-out

2.4.1 J3 Connector

Express PCI power(from express connector) can be used to connect a 12V power supply to

the external connectors (J10).

2.4.2 J4 Switch

The PCIe-OPT01 board is designed of four maximum PCIe-OPT01 boards at the same

time so as usable. Distribution of each board sets it up through 4 pin switch (J4) in a board.

After unpacking, inspect the board carton to make sure there are no damages on the board.

3.1 Hardware Installation

3.1.1 Package Contents

① PCIe-OPT01 Board

② CD (Driver/Manual/API/Sample Source etc.)

3.1.2 Installation Process

① Turn off the PC power.

② Remove the computer cover using the instructions from the computer manual.

③ Insert the board empty PCI Express slot as soon as possible to close the CPU.

④ Remove the blank metal plate located at the back of the selected slot. Keep the remov

ed screw to fasten the board after installation.

⑤ You should try number 3 in case of multi-board.



3.2 Driver Installation

To install your PCIe-OPT01 board in your PC, follow the steps described in the document “How

to install PCI DAQ Board” provided by DAQ System. If the document is missing, you can get it

from www.daqsystem.com. The PCIe-OPT01 board is completely Plug & Play. There are no

switches or jumpers to set. Therefore you can install it easily.

- Your OS requirement : Windows 2000 SP4 or Windows XP SP1 above

The PCIe-OPT01 connects to Express Card Port. After that you can show the below pict

ure of “Welcome to found New Hardware Search Wizard” window.

If new hardware is found, Wizard will ask you to install the corresponding driver. For installation

of the driver, select the item “Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)” and click “Next” as

in the figure.

http://www.daqsystem.com/



Select “Search for the best driver in these locations”. Check “Search removable media (floppy,

CD-ROM)”. Check “include this location in the search”. Click “Browse” button. Select the folder

where the drivers are located. Click “OK”. Click “Next”. The necessary files are “pcie_opt01.inf”

and “pcie_opt01.sys” in the driver polder.



If the installation is completely finished, a completion window message shall be shown as in

[Figure 4-5]. Click “Finish”.



If the installation is completely finished, you confirm it in the following ways.

Do the following steps to show up the “Device Manager” window.

[My Computer -> properties -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> Mutifunction Adaptor ->

PCIe-OPT01]

If you can see the “PCIe-OPT01” at Multifunction Adaptors, the driver installation is to have

been over. (Check the red circle)

Important Notice : After installation, you should re-boot the system for the proper operation.



4. Sample Program

DAQ system provides a sample program to make the user be familiar with the board operation and

to make the program development easier. You can find the sample program in the CDROM

accompanying with the board.

Sample program is provided in source form in order to show the usage of API (Application

Programming Interface) of the board and may be modified for customer’s own usage.

[Figure 4-1. “FrmTest.exe” Execution display]

Above executable files are a screen test board using its DVI-CL1 (DVI to Camera Link) board, the

Camera Link camera connection is different.

To run the sample application program, you need to use API (Application Programming Interface).

It is a form of client DLL (Dynamic Link Library). You need the Import Library files and header files for

compiling the sample source. You can find them in the CDROM. To run the execution file, the API

DLL file (USB_FRM13.DLL) must be located in the same directory with the execution file or Windows



system folder. Another method is to add the directory of API DLL file to PATH environmental variable.

Each menu bar is described in the following. The menu bar is not mentioned here is not to use

features.
