Basler ace 2 a2A3536-31umPRO

a2A3536-31umPRO

The Basler a2A3536-31umPRO is part of the ace 2 R Pro series and uses the Sony IMX676 STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor with a 1/1.6" format, delivering 3536 x 3536 pixel resolution at 31 fps via USB 3.0 (SuperSpeed, 5 Gbit/s). It features rolling shutter, 2 µm square pixels, 10/12-bit pixel depth, and supports both visible and NIR wavelengths. The camera provides hardware trigger, 1 opto-coupled digital input, and 2 GPIO lines via an M8 6-pin connector, powered over USB or 12–24 VDC at a typical 3 W. IP30-rated box housing measuring 42.8 × 29 × 29 mm with a C-mount lens interface.

Get a first image quickly with the pylon Viewer, then move into the pylon SDK for your application. These cameras are GenICam/GenTL-compliant, so any compliant vision software can drive them as well.

Software: pylon Camera Software Suite

1. Install the pylon Camera Software Suite
Download and install the pylon Camera Software Suite for your OS from Basler. This provides the pylon Viewer, the GenTL transport-layer producers and the pylon SDK (C/C++/.NET/Python). On Windows the installer adds the needed drivers; on Linux follow the included setup notes for USB and network permissions.
2. Connect the camera and check the link
Cable the camera to its matching interface: GigE Vision to a GigE port (use a quality cable and, ideally, a dedicated NIC with jumbo frames enabled), USB3 Vision to a USB 3.x port with the supplied cable, or CoaXPress to the frame grabber. Provide power where required (PoE, USB bus power, or PoCXP). Open the pylon Viewer and confirm the camera appears in the device list; for GigE, make sure the camera and NIC are on the same subnet.
3. Grab a first image and set exposure, gain and pixel format
Select the camera in the pylon Viewer and start a continuous grab. Adjust exposure time and gain until the image is well exposed (avoid clipped highlights), set the pixel format (e.g. Mono8 or a Bayer/RGB format), and focus the lens. Use a test pattern if the lens or scene is not ready yet.
4. Configure triggering and acquisition
Decide between free-run and triggered acquisition. For synchronized capture, set the trigger source (software or a hardware line on the I/O connector), trigger mode and any debounce or exposure mode, then verify timing. Note the parameter names you change in the Viewer feature tree, as you will reuse them in code.
5. Move to the SDK or a GenICam-compliant library
Recreate your settings in code with the pylon SDK (C, C++, .NET or Python) to open the device, apply the same features and pull frames into your pipeline; pylon vTools and pylon AI can add processing blocks. Because the cameras are GenICam/GenTL standard, third-party vision libraries work too. Once the image stream is stable, you can route frames to a deep-learning inspection such as Rosepetal for automated defect detection.
