Remarks

Camera driver software

This filter is intended to cooperate with a camera using its vendor SDK. To be able to connect to a camera, it is required to install eBUS software with camera dedicated drivers.

eBUS SDK can be downloaded from the following website: https://supportcenter.pleora.com/s/topic/0TO340000004X6dGAE/ebus-sdk?tabset-0c866=2&tabset-25adb=81d66 (registration may be required).

Recommended eBUS SDK version for Aurora Vision Studio usage is 5.1.10.4642.

Add DLL path to system environment variable may be required.

Camera identification

When there is only one camera connected to a computer, field inDeviceID can be set to Auto. In this case, first available camera will be found and connected.

inDeviceID field can be used to pick one of multiple cameras connected to computer. DeviceID can be set to:

  • Device unique id number - should be specified on device casing.
Camera parameters

To change other and more advanced internal camera parameters use configuration tool "Camera Control Application" available from the following website: https://www.opto-e.com/products/coe-area-scan#Downloads (registration may be required).

Other device settings can be changed also with eBUs Player available from the following website: https://www.pleora.com/products/ebus-sdk/ (registration may be required).
