Teledyne DALSA
Setting up the Detector
Network Interface Card
A Network Interface Card (NIC) is required to acquire images and control the Shad-
o-Scan 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 5G 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
a 64-bit operating systems as the NIC drivers are better maintained.
Due to the high bandwidth used by the detector we strongly advise to have a direct
connection from the NIC to the detector.

Connect the trigger cable to the detector when the Trigger Mode of the detector is set
to Synchronous or Triggered.
Connect Ethernet Cable
