Camera power
The Prosilica GB camera family has recently been updated to offer an expanded
input power voltage range. The camera serial number is used to differentiate
between cameras that offer 5–16 VDC and those that offer 5–25 VDC.
Isolated IO ground
The
Isolated IO GND
connection provides the user ground reference and return
path for
In 1
,
and
Out 1
. It is recommended that the ground wiring be physically
close to the
In/Out
wiring to prevent parasitic coupling. For example, a good
cable design connects
In 1
to one conductor of a twisted pair,
Isolated IO GND
to the second conductor of the same twisted pair.
RxD RS-232 and TxD RS-232
These signals are RS-232 compatible. These signals allow communication from
the host system via the Ethernet port to a peripheral device connected to the
camera. These signals are not isolated; therefore, careful attention should be
used when designing cabling in noisy environments.
