Connecting the Ethernet Cable
CAUTION
:
The Ethernet cable shield has to be grounded at the far end. Whatever this cable is plugged into
(typically a switch or router) should have a grounded Ethernet connector. A digital voltmeter has to be used to
validate the grounding. If the far end device is not grounded, a ground wire should be added in compliance with
local electrical codes.
1. Connect the Ethernet cable's M12 connector to the vision system ENET connector.
2. Connect the Ethernet cable’s RJ-45 connector to a switch/router or PC, as applicable.
Note
: Besides powering the vision system through a Breakout Cable, it is possible to power through PoE (Power
over Ethernet) connection as well, in which case it is not necessary to use a Breakout Cable.
IS2800 Mini configurations support PoE connection. The Multi Torch configuration does not support PoE
connection.
