Firmware revision 330 improves CoaXPressInterface and communication standard for industrial cameras using single or multiple coaxial cables. It supports the asymmetric high-speed transmission of images and related control data. This digital interface standard, hosted by the JIIA (Japan Industrial Imaging Association), has been developed for high-speed image data transmission in machine vision applications. (Source:http://www.coaxpress.com/) down-link lock on 3602 Coaxlink Octo, 3603 Coaxlink Quad CXPAcronym for CoaXPress-12, and 3620 Coaxlink Quad CXP-12 JPEG.

If the requirement is not satisfied for all the Coaxlink cards in your system, it is mandatory to apply the Firmware Upgrade procedure prior to using this version of the driver.
