2.6.2.1.1 Set video switch
The Pyrocam must be set to output digital video. This is accomplished by setting the
MONO/DIG/VGA switch to the LBA position. See Chapter 6 in your Pyrocam Operator’s
Manual.
2.6.2.1.2 Connect cable
Connect the Pyrocam’s digital output to the digital input connector of the LBA-500PC. A
special interface cable is required to make this connection. If you ordered your Pyrocam I,
LBA-PC and LBA-Digital Option together as a system, then a cable was supplied.
2.6.2.1.3 Pyrocam settings
With the Pyrocam set to the DIG mode, the Vertical Scale setting has no effect on the
output. However, the Gain switch is still operating and can be set to any position. All other
operating requirements for the Pyrocam I are still applicable, and must be set up correctly.
Don’t forget to periodically Calibrate your Pyrocam.
Hint: First set up your Pyrocam to operate in one of its stand-alone configurations, and then connect it to the LBA-
PC only after you’re sure that it is operating satisfactorily with your laser.
2.6.2.2 LBA-500/7XXPC-D Setup requirements:
Two files are provided for configuring the LBA-PC digital interface to a Pyrocam I. They are
~PYRODIG.CFG and ~PYRODIG.CAM.
2.6.2.2.1 Set the Pyrocam configuration
Go to file. . . Restore Config. . . and set the configuration to ~PYRODIG.CFG.
2.6.2.2.2 Set the camera options
Go to Options. . . Camera dialog box and set the Camera selection to ~PYRODIG.CAM.
This may already have happened when you did the previous step.
The ~PYRODIG.CAM file is absolutely required for correct operation with your Pyrocam. The
~PYRODIG.CFG configuration is a good starting point configuration.
You will undoubtedly need to make changes to your configuration to suit your application.
Do so, and then save off your new configurations into new <filename>.cfg config file.
Remember the ~PYRODIG files are read only, so don’t try to use those file names.
Under no circumstances make any changes to the Advanced… Camera settings for the
Pyrocam I.
