Computer Requirements for Linea Lite GigE Cameras
The following information is a guide to computer and networking equipment required to support the
Linea Lite GigE camera at maximum performance. The Linea Lite GigE camera series complies with
the current IPv4 Internet Protocol, therefore current Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) equipment should
provide trouble free performance.
Host PC System
•
Operating System: Windows 7/10 (32 or 64-bit) are supported.
GigE Network Adapters
•
GigE network adapter (either add on card or on motherboard). Typically, a system will need
an Ethernet GigE adapter to supplement the single NIC on the motherboard.
•
PCI Express adapters will outperform PCI adapters.
•
Network adapters that support Jumbo Frames will outperform adapters with fixed packet
size frames. Optimal settings will be system dependent.
If the computer to be used with the Linea Lite GigE camera does not have a Gigabit network
adapter or second built in Gigabit NIC, a Gigabit Network Interface adapter card (NIC) needs to be
installed.
With any high-performance Gigabit NIC adapter review the NIC documentation for any drivers
required for the specific host operating system.
•
Laptop computers with built in GigE network adapters may not be able to stream full line
rates from Linea Lite GigE, especially when on battery power. Thorough testing is required with
any laptop computer to determine the maximum frame rate possible (Refer to Teledyne DALSA
Network Imaging Package for Sapera LT Optimization Guide, available through the Start menu
under Teledyne DALSA).
•
The Windows Firewall exceptions feature is automatically configured to allow the Sapera GigE
Server data to pass through the firewall.
•
Computers with VPN software (virtual private network) may need to have the VPN driver
disabled in the NIC properties. This would be required only on the NIC used with the Linea Lite
GigE. Testing by the user is required.
