Rad-icon 2329 GigE Detector
Teledyne DALSA
Setting up the Detector
Network Interface Card
A Network Interface Card (NIC) is required to acquire images and control the Rad-
icon 2329 detector. A NIC with Jumbo packet support up to 9014 bytes is required to
receive streaming video, preferably with a PCI Express slot.
Teledyne DALSA advises to use the Intel Gigabit CT adapter Network Interface Card
(NIC) which is a low cost but high performance and reliable adapter with a PCI
Express slot.
Make sure that the latest driver of the NIC manufacturer is installed. We advise to use
64-bit operating systems as the NIC drivers are better maintained.
Due to the high bandwidth used by the detector it is strongly advised to have a direct
connection from the NIC to the detector.
Connect Trigger Cable
Connect the trigger cable to the detector when the trigger mode of the detector is set
to Triggered, Snapshot, Snapshot Extended Exposure and Triggered Sequence modes.
Connect Ethernet Cable
Connect the CAT-6 STP Ethernet cable from the detector to the computer Ethernet
jack. Secure the RJ-45 connector to the detector.
Connect Power Cable
Connect a power cable from the detector to a power supply with a supply voltage
between 12-28V and capable of delivering at least 20W.
Status Light
In normal operation the status light is green.
The status light is orange when the detector is in standby.
When the detector is connected to a host system it will be recognized in 30 to 65
seconds.
