Functional description topic(s) Analog Audio Interface on page 27 General Purpose I/O The general purpose I/O's are quasi-bidirectional I/O. They can be used as an input or as output ports. When set to the LOW state, the I/O port actively drives the output to the low state. The device is then capable of sinking 10 mA from the load with a voltage drop as little as 1 Volt. When set to the HIGH state, the I/O port stops driving the output to the low state. Instead, a weak-pullup pulls the I/O port towards the 3V3 rail. In that state, the I/O port can be used as an input port. A stronger transient pull-up is temporarily applied when the I/O state changes from LOW to HIGH. This improves the rising time of the output voltage. Operating characteristics Min. Operating voltage range Max.

Its purpose is to monitor the soware application and to restart the PC aer an anomalous inactivity time-out. This ensures a reliable operation of unattended systems. The time-out duration is fixed at 3 minutes. The watchdog behaves as a normally open static switch. It is intended to be wired in parallel with the reset button of the PC. Therefore the product is equipped with two internal 2 pin headers named WATCHDOG-1 and WATCHDOG-2. Both connectors are equivalent and the polarity of the watchdog outputs doesn't matter. Watchdog Installation Instructions To insert the watchdog switch in parallel to the system reset switch, proceed as follows: • Locate the "reset cable" linking the RESET BUTTON to the RESET INPUT on the motherboard. • Reconnect the motherboard end of the "reset cable" to the WATCHDOG-2 connector. • Using the supplied "watchdog cable", connect the RESET INPUT on the motherboard to the WATCHDOG-1 connector.

The MultiCam for Picolo HD driver is distributed on the Euresys website: www.euresys.com. The first time access requires a profile creation to obtain a user ID and a password. Once the package is downloaded, run the executable to launch the installer tool. If you have an existing MultiCam for Picolo HD driver already installed, you will be prompted to uninstall it before being able to continue. Otherwise, the tool prompts you for the selection of the destination folder. Figure 12: Destination Folder Dialog Box Note: The default installation folder is: • C:\Program Files (x86)\Euresys\MultiCamForPicoloHD for 64-bit Windows versions. • C:\Program Files\Euresys\MultiCamForPicoloHD for 32-bit Windows versions. The tool Installs the device driver(s) for all the Picolo HD cards present in the system. However, before eﬀective driver installation, you may have to acknowledge the Windows Security dialog box: Figure 13: Example of Security Dialog Box for Picolo HD One 78 Appendix 1841 Picolo HD 3G Handbook DirectShow Filter Graph Setup Example This topic describes the procedure to create a filter graph with 1 audio and 3 video filters for a Picolo HD H.264 card using GraphEdit. 1. Select the "Picolo HD H.264, Video Capture" filter among the WDM Streaming Capture Devices filter list. Figure 14: Filter selection 2. Insert three instances of the "Picolo HD H.264, Video Capture" filter in the graph. 3. Configure the Properties of each Video Capture Filter instance as follows: a) In the "Custom Properties" tab: select the HDMI Video Input Figure 15: Video Capture Filter Properties - Custom Properties Tab b) In the "Video Decoder" tab, select the Video Standard. . • For high-definition video sources, select Unknown 79 1841 Picolo HD 3G Handbook Appendix Figure 16: Video Capture Filter Properties - Video Decoder Tab 4. Configure the Video Capture Pin Properties of each Video Capture Filter instance as follows: a) In the "Stream Format" tab: select the adequate Color Space/Compression setting: • YV12 for the first filter instance • H.264 for the second filter instance • X.264 for the third filter instance Figure 17: Video Capture Pin Properties - Stream Format Tab - Color space/Compression Box b) In the "Stream Format" tab: select the adequate Output Size setting • 1920 x 1080 for the YV12 and H.264 pins • 960 x 540 for the X264 pin Note: The output size of YV12 and H.264 pin must match the source resolution (1920 x 1080 in this example) Note: The output size of X.264 pin must match the source resolution scaled-down by 2. 80 Appendix 1841 Picolo HD 3G Handbook Figure 18: Video Capture Pin Properties - Stream Format Tab - Output Size Box 5. Select the "Picolo HD H.264, Audio Capture" filter among the WDM Streaming Capture Devices filter list. 6. Insert one instance of the "Picolo HD H.264, Audio Capture" filter in the graph. 7. Render the 3 video capture pins and the audio capture pin. Figure 19: Filter Graph Precautions for Use of Board Products Electrostatic Sensitive Device Boards may be damaged by electrostatic discharges. Follow the procedure hereby described and apply any general procedure aimed at reducing the risk associated with electrostatic discharge. Damage caused by improper handling is not covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Electromagnetic Compatibility Euresys boards are compliant with electromagnetic compatibility regulatory requirements. To ensure this compliance, the card bracket must be secured with the relevant screw in accordance with the procedure described herein. 81 1841 Picolo HD 3G Handbook Appendix Risk of Electrical Shock Do not operate the computer with any enclosure cover removed. During the hardware installation, ensure the AC power cord is unplugged before touching any internal part of the computer. Heating Device It is normal for a board to dissipate some heat during operation. All enclosure covers, including blank brackets, must be fitted correctly to ensure that the fan cools the computer adequately. Hot Plugging Forbidden Uncontrolled plugging and unplugging of equipment may damage a board. Always switch oﬀ the computer and any relevant system device when connecting or disconnecting a cable at the frame grabber or auxiliary board bracket. Failure to do so may damage the card and will void the warranty. Poor Grounding Protection The computer and the camera can be located in distant areas with individual ground connections. Poor ground interconnection, ground loop or ground fault may induce unwanted voltage between equipment, causing excessive current in the interconnecting cables. This faulty situation can damage the frame grabber or the camera electrical interface. The user must follow proper equipment grounding practices at all ends of the interconnecting cables. In addition, the use of cable assemblies with overall shield solidly connected to the conductive shell of all connectors is recommended. Besides the beneficial eﬀect of cable shielding on electromagnetic compatibility, the shield connection can increase the protection level against grounding problems by temporarily absorbing unwanted fault current. 82
