Linea2 5GigE Series Camera
When using CamExpert, multiple Linea2 5GigE cameras on the network are seen as different
"Linea2_C4096_xx" 4k devices. Non-
Teledyne DALSA cameras are labeled as “GigEVision Device”.
Click on a device to select it for control by CamExpert.
An imaging application uses any one of these attributes to identify a camera: its IP address, MAC
address, serial number or Device User ID. Some important considerations are listed below.
•
Do not use the camera
’
s IP address as identification (unless it is a persistent IP) because it
could change with each power cycle.
•
A MAC address is unique to each camera; therefore the control application is limited to the
vision system that uses the camera
’
s MAC address.
•
The Device User ID can be programmed to represent the selected camera usage. This method
is recommended for an application to identify cameras. In this case, the vision system can be
duplicated any number of times with cameras identified by their function, not their serial
numbers or MAC address.
