The CLS-222 Camera Link Simulator is a PoCL (Power over Camera Link) version of our CLS-221.  It is an affordable, high-performance video test pattern generator that supports all video formats including those introduced in the current version 2.1 specification.  Fully programmable video timing enables the CLS-222 to mimic the characteristics of almost any camera.  New features include enhanced timing performance, bayer color support, and additional video patterns.  Control is via an RS-232 port, USB, or frame grabber COM port.  The CLS-222 also incorporates the AIA validation test pattern.

The CLS-222 features the smaller SDR/HDR connector typically used with PoCL cameras and frame grabbers.  The CLS-222 detects power and mimics PoCL camera characteristics at both connectors, supporting newer PoCL cameras.

The CLS-222 connects to devices with SDR/HDR connectors via mini cables, and to devices with the larger MDR connectors via adapting cables.  If you do not require the PoCL features, we recommend the lower-cost sister product CLS-221...

The CLS-222 is very useful for the development and test of both PoCL and non-PoCL Camera Link components and systems, and is easy to use with included quick-configuration software...
