# Coaxpress High Speed Camera
## Getting Started
First issue was installing the framegrabber in a PCIEx4 slot. It seemed to work but was complaining about not having x8 so I moved it.
I'm not sure if cable order matters for the coax connections but I found an order that does and I'm sticking to it.
From here on I'm using the firmware pre-installed on the framegrabber and camera. The framegrabber indicates it needs a firmware update and I'll get to that at some point.
```
21:14:02.172 [WARNING] Device open with warnings: W: Firmware update required
```
This is the what the framegrabber reports for firmware:

And for the camera:

It looks like order of operations is very important in Vision Point. This camera comes up as 1608x400 pixels at 500fps:

If I stream data and then decrease the resolution to increase frame rate, the preview goes crazy and I just get a bunch of garbage:

This looks to me like desyncronization of the camera and framegrabber.
Similarly increasing resolution after streaming data causes mayhem as well:

If I instead change the resolution to 640x200 (which based on the label I think should give me 8000fps) as the very first thing after connecting, then I do see an increase in frame rate to 1000fps. This isn't the 8000 I expect but indicates that this is the right way to do this.
