Introduction
Model 622 is a TV display board. It provides the capability to display images stored in JPEG format
on a TV monitor.
The board supports the following JPEG file sizes: 640x480, 704x480, 320x240 and 352x240.
The SDK provided with the board allows building the application that displays a sequence of JPEG
images with an arbitrary frame rate. A sample application that comes with the SDK illustrates the
use of the SDK functions.
The general approach implemented in the SDK is that of a queue of internal buffers. A display
application requests a buffer from the driver, fills it with JPEG data and puts it in the queue. The
driver performs JPEG decompression and writes the uncompressed data to the board. In case the
queue runs empty, the last frame is repeated, providing continuous video signal on the board’s
output.
Software Installation
It is recommended to install the SDK before installing the board(s) into your PC. To install the SDK
run setup.exe from the installation disk.
Windows98
The first time you boot your system after model 622 frame grabber is plugged in, Windows will
launch "Add new hardware Wizard". Select "Display a list of all drivers", click "Next", check "Floppy
drive" and uncheck all other check boxes, and insert a S622 SDK distribution disk into the floppy
drive. Click "Next". Windows should automatically complete the rest of the installation procedure.
WindowsNT
To install the SDK run setup.exe from the installation disk.
Windows2000/XP
The first time you boot your system after model 622 frame grabber is plugged in, Windows will
launch "Found new hardware Wizard". Select "Install from a list...", click "Next", check “Include
this location in the search”, click on “Browse”, and select a floppy drive. Insert a S622 SDK
distribution disk into the floppy drive and click “OK”. When a message appears saying that the
driver does not have a Microsoft digital signature, click “Continue anyway”.
Note: under WindowsXP, installing the driver before the SDK is installed may result in failure. In
this case “Found new hardware…” message is not displayed any more. To install the driver
